Sun protection
Our main fabric is made of 75D polyester fibers (Denier), coated with polyurethane to guarantee UPF 50+ sun protection.
Please note: a lot of UV rays pass directly or indirectly through the front of the shelter, so we advise you to protect your skin.
Assembly and disassembly
Shelter with traditional hoop structure.
- Read the assembly and disassembly instructions, video available at Decathlon.fr,
- Remove the various elements from the cover,
- On the ground, unfold the hoops and the textile envelope,
- Insert the front hoop into the textile sheath, up to the end in the sock, put it under tension and insert it into the opposite sock,
- Repeat this on the second hoop,
- The shelter is self-supporting, orient it and plant the 3 sardines.
Dimensions
When unfolded, the shelter forms a 1 m² triangle on the ground.
See dimensions above.
Wind resistance
We test all our tents in a wind tunnel on a turntable. The aim is to expose each side of the tent to the same amount of wind.
With proper assembly, this tent remains habitable in a force 4 wind measured at 30 km/h.
Rain protection
This shelter protects you from light rain thanks to its polyurethane-coated polyester fabric. The ground sheet protects you from dampness and run-off.
Caution! The seams are not waterproof, so you won't be protected in heavy rain.
Don't throw it away, fix it!

Care and storage tips
Our shelters have been designed for occasional outdoor use (4 weeks a year) during your outings in the great outdoors. Continuous exposure to UV rays for several weeks may damage the fabric. These products do not fall into the "garden furniture" category and are not designed for permanent outdoor use. To ensure the longest possible life for your shelter, it should be cleaned and stored dry in its cover when not in use.
