3000mm is the number that matters when rain settles in and stays. This backpacking tent uses a 210T taffeta polyester shell with a PU coating at that rating, and waterproof tape runs along every seam and all four corners, because a seam is where most tents actually leak. The rainfly sits on two poles instead of one, opening up about 20 percent more headroom at the entrance.
Setup runs on clips rather than sleeves, so you hook the body onto the poles and have it standing in a few minutes, even in fading light. You pick your size at checkout: 1 person for solo overnights, 2 person for a couple, or 4 person when you want room to spread out gear. Both doors are double-layered, with a solid inner panel and a mesh outer, so you can seal up or open out.
Large mesh windows on the skylight and the side walls pull air through, which is what keeps condensation off your sleeping bag on a cold morning. Small details carry weight on a long trip: a zippered port lets an electric cord in without leaving a gap, two interior pockets hold your phone and keys off the floor, and a roof hook takes a camping lantern so you are not holding a light in your teeth.
