Sub-500 grams! Is the Durston X Mid Pro 1 the world's lightest backpacking tent? The Durston X-Mid Pro tent weighs a feathery 488 grams including the bag. This is some serious ultralight backpacking gear. The lightweight Durston X Mid 1 Pro tent uses a special DCF fabric to achieve this with a high strength-to-weight ratio. • Despite the weight, this trekking pole tent is still really spacious and has some great features too including 2 pockets and 2 vents. • This ultralight backpacking tent ideally needs to be pitched on a flat surface. This is because the Dyneema Composite Fabric doesn't stretch. On uneven surface it is difficult to pitch perfectly. • I personally own the Durston X-Mid 1 Solid which I highly rate. I think this version is much better value for money. It's half the price, keeps cool breezes out, has a bit of stretch in the standard 20D nylon fabric and uses the same awesome design. • However, that being said, if you are planning a long thru hiking trip or multi day backpacking trip then the reduced weight will be welcome. • Purchase direct here: https://durstongear.com/product/x-mid... • Visit my new Amazon Shop! https://www.amazon.co.uk/shop/backpac... • Follow me Instagram page here: / backpacking_uk • WEIGHT • Tent 15.5 oz / 440 g (DCF floor) or 17.1 oz / 485 g (Silnylon floor) • Stuff Sack 0.3oz / 8g (DCF) or 0.4 oz / 11 g (Silnylon) • Stakes (Optional) DAC J Stakes (4 x 6 @ 7 g; 4 x 8 @ 16 g) • Typical Setup (Tent, Sack, 5 Stakes) 17.6 oz / 500 g (DCF floor) or 19.4 oz / 550 g (Silnylon floor). • Optimal Geometry • Patented X-Mid geometry with twin offset poles provides excellent headroom, living space, stormworthiness, and ease of pitching. • Spacious • More interior volume and useable length than almost all other 1P shelters.
