Non-Wicking
Materials
|
MSR uses non-wicking materials throughout that won't absorb moisture or contribute to water weight gain, from the polyester rain-flys and MicroMesh, the Dry Ties, Dry Guys and stake loops.
|
 |
From our exclusive Titanium Stakes to our UltraLight Needle and GroundHog stakes, MSR has the best and the lightest stake for the job.
|
Caternary Cut
Fabric |
Stronger, weighs less than straight cut fabric and provides an off the ground perimeter. Plus, it keeps the tent taut and prevents rainfly/tent body from touching to keep moisture out.
|
 |
DryTies(TM): Door ties that are faster, lighter and dryer than toggle/bungy systems. Won't absorb water like webbing.
|
 |
DryGuy(TM) System: Won't wick, freeze or hold water like webbing guy-outs. Can guyout with up to a 10mm climbing rope.
|
High/Low
Venting |
To control condensation, every MSR tent has a complete high/low venting system, to draw fresh air in and expel moist air out.
|
 |
Protected Doors & Vestibules: Rainfly doors have zipper flaps and water repellant zippers to keep water out.
|
High Waterproof
Floor Coatings |
Moisture shouldn't enter your tent from above or below. That's why we put 10,000mm waterproof floor coatings on our Convertible and 4-Season tents and 5,000mm floor coatings on all others.
|
 |
World's First Field Repairable Zippers:Our patented ZipGate(TM) allows you to replace zipper sliders in the field.
|
User-Friendly
Setup |
Continuous pole sleeves, color-coded poles and adjustable stake loops for fast, easy set-up.
|
 |
Big Vestibules with Stowaway Pockets: Big vestibules and StowAway pockets in the tent and rainfly provide quick, one-handed, off the ground storage for the door or extra gear storage. (Sorry not on Ultralights)
|
 |
Gear Loft, lots of Interior Pockets and Utility Loops: For keeping your house organized and gear accessible. Plus, the gear loft is cleverly designed to convert your head lamp into a tent dome light. (Sorry not in Ultralights)
|
Reflective
Materials |
DryGuys, guy lines, peak vents and quiet zipper pulls are all reflective for finding at night. MSR Convertible and 4-season tents also have full reflective door strips.
|
Adjustable Stake
Loops |
Lots of adjustability to draw rainfly taut for a quiet, wind resistant pitch. The ladder lock tensioner is backed up against failure by a second webbing loop. And, the convertible and 4-season tent loops are big enough for skis.
|
Compression Tension(TM)
Design |
MSR's Compression Tension geometry creates more headroom, useable space and structural strength for foul weather protection.
