Samaya Ultralight Tent

Based in Annecy, France, Samaya Equipment launched their first product a few month ago and were winners of an ISPO award. The SAMAYA2.5 tent is the perfect balance between lightness, comfort and performance, it is built with technical materials, like Dyneema fabric, and Cordura reinforcements in the corners. It also features reflective guy ropes by Dynnema, 3 DAC FeatherLite poles, unbreakable plastic sardines from SwissPiranha for anchoring the tent, and YYK weatherproof Aquaguard zips, resulting in a truly robust tent.  It also has ventilation windows with zip fasteners on the top, and is equipped with two large pockets and a third one at the top. The spacious 4-season tent is the ideal partner for two users with room for equipment (for more space, the tent can be combined with the Samaya2.5 Vestibule (sold separately), this converts it into a real 3-seater tent), and with a weight of only 1.6 kg, you can easily slide it in a backpack.
