Haven Spectre Tent

Meet the Haven Spectre, the latest innovation from Haven Tents, the pioneers behind the lay-flat hammock tent. Designed for backpackers who won't compromise on comfort, this next-gen tent cuts weight without cutting corners, making it perfect for serious adventures off the grid.

Weighing in at just half of the original Haven XL, the Spectre still delivers the same game-changing flat-lay design that made Haven famous. Whether you are a back, side, or stomach sleeper, you will enjoy unmatched rest without the usual pressure points of traditional hammocks or the bulk of ground tents.

Built with ultra-tough, ultralight Monolite fabric, the Haven Spectre holds strong in the elements and packs down easily. It also introduces clever features like Storm Mode for rugged weather, Bivy Mode for ground use when trees aren't around, and the Lounge Strap that turns your setup into a suspended recliner.

Add in a Gear Sling for bonus storage and panoramic 360 degree views, and you've got the ultimate backcountry sleep system. Whether you are deep in the woods or relaxing trailside, the Haven Spectre keeps you covered, literally and figuratively. watch the video below
