Tents

A unique tent that’s made out of canvas soaked in concrete. The tent is relatively flexible and compact when dry, but it transforms into a sturdy structure when it’s soaked in water and inflated.

This small British Columbia resort brings new meaning to “roughing it” – with guest tents decked out with luxurious bedding, full bathroom with heated floor and wood stoves. Lounge tents too.

If you need something roomier – and more attention grabbing – than the Camper Van Tent, the London Underground Tube Tent is for you. It can fit up to 72 people standing or 16 people sleeping.

Cross a hammock with a tent and you get the Tentsile, a portable shelter that does not require an even surface. A complementary stand is also being developed so it can be pitched virtually anywhere.

You won’t have a hard time finding your camp with these tents. The limited-edition designs vary from playful to abstract. The tents are also waterproof, durable and roomy enough for two people.

The Wavecave is a surfboard bag and tent in one. It can carry up to 4 surfboards, and the 12mm foam padding that protects the boards doubles as the bed when the Wavecave is set up as a tent.

Telescoping poles are pre-attached to the tent, so it takes two people just a minute to set it up or take it down. Made of fully taped weather-resistant fabric. Available in 4, 6 and 8 person models.

If you’re like us, your crazy fantasy of leaving on a cross-country bike trek just got a little crazier thanks to Topeak’s Bikamper. It’s a personal shelter that uses your bike in place of tent-poles.

You’ll be the envy of the campsite when you step out in the morning from this 4 person tent with 2 zip-separated full size rooms, a full-size replica of the iconic VW Camper Van. (Thanks Chris!)

The Cave by Heimplanet is an inflatable tent. No assembly is required – just use a pump or compressor and you’ll have it set up in less than a minute. Goodbye tent poles – you won’t be missed.

The North Face’s 2 meter, geodesic Dome Tent has you ultra-covered: it’ll fit up to 8 people and features wind/snow pressure distributing sleeves, dual doors, and a chimney vent.
