SlingFin Portal 1 Person Ultralight Tent

Go further, while carrying less weight with the SlingFin Portal 1 Tent.

The Portal 1 is SlingFin's tent that has been optimised for solo adventurers! At just 1.13 kgs, it is one of the lightest freestanding tents you can find in the price range. To avoid that cramped, coffin-like feeling common in many one-person tents,  the Portal 1’s cross pole creates sidewalls that go beyond vertical for extra headroom and space. The longer cross pole also gives you a super roomy vestibule, perfect for gear storage and offering extra protection when the doors are rolled back.

The flysheet is made from 10D Nylon 66 Ripstop silicone-coated fabric, which offers stellar UV resistance, quick drying times, and incredible mould/mildew resistance. Unlike PU coatings, the 20D PE-coated floor fabric is lightweight, durable, and doesn’t absorb water, so it stays dry and won’t turn into a smelly, flaky mess over time. Plus, the pre-installed spare sliders on all zippers to double their lifespan, ensuring you won’t be stuck with a malfunctioning tent 90% of the way through your adventure!
