TECHNICAL INFORMATION

Ventilation

We designed this tent for summer use. The inner chamber is made of mesh fabric for optimum ventilation. A zippered flap adjusts airflow over the head. The double-roof is designed with a cut-out to allow air to enter the inner chamber. The system is completed by 2 top vents. It is possible to use the chamber without the double canopy. Enjoy a night under the stars, watching the Milky Way.

Dimensions and habitability

Chamber length 210 cm.
Width 120 cm.
Interior height 108 cm (at highest point).
Two 60 cm-deep side apses (storage space between the chamber and the flysheet) can each accommodate a backpack (approx. 50-70 liters), mountain gear and a pair of hiking boots.
2 pockets in the chamber.
1 interior top hook for hanging a lamp and an adjustable clothesline.

Assembly

The double-roof and the bedroom are separate. Assembly is therefore carried out in the traditional way. Once the chamber is on the ground, tension the 2 main hoops and clip the chamber onto them. Add the yellow transverse hoop, passing it over the 2 main hoops, and clip the chamber onto it. Then cover the whole with the double-roof. Adjust the tension. Color-coding on the hoop, chamber and flysheet makes for intuitive assembly.

Waterproofing

Forclaz tents are laboratory-tested: tent erected, 200 liters/m²/hour (3 hours, equivalent to a tropical rainfall). They are also field-tested by a panel of users. 75-denier polyester rain fly, coated polyurethane (inside), water-repellent treatment (outside), P75D chamber liner. Taped seams.

Repairability and after-sales service

As designers, we are concerned about the durability of our products over time. That's why all our tents are designed to be repairable.
You can find spare parts in your store's workshop Decathlon, on decathlon.fr or at support.decathlon.fr

Resistance

Your tent is designed for touring bivouacs, not for static use in direct sunlight. We advise you to avoid leaving it in direct sunlight as much as possible, as light fabrics can be sensitive to UV rays, which can weaken them.
