FUNCTION

Larger Headroom

The biggest demerit of one-pole shelters are their limited headroom. We designed extension frames to solve this problem. Not only does this create more headroom but also makes the floor space more usable.

Easy Set Up

The hexagonal base can be easily set up by anyone. First peg down the four corners of building tape and insert the center pole. The tent is freestanding once the center pole is installed.

Large Size Shelter

We took the basic design of the ZEKU-M and created a larger size. This shelter can easily accommodate a small community of about 10 people.

Optional Inner Tent

Install the optional inner tent to create a spacious two-room tent for a family of four. This design was created in response to people wishing to separate their living and sleeping quarters in one tent.

Included Floor Panel

Although the tent body is hexagonal, the included floor panel is pentagonal in order to create a dirt floor entrance to keep shoes and other wet gear separate from the living space.

Fully Openable Panel

One of the six panels, in addition to the doors, can be completely opened. Although one-pole tents are typically not suited to good ventilation on hot summer days, this tent is excellent.

Light-shielding Polyurethane Coating

The underside of the tent is treated with dyed polyurethane (usually transparent). This application fills in the spaces between the warp and weft, reducing the transmission of sunlight. Even in the heat of summer you can stay cool and relaxed.

Light Weight and Compact

By adopting silicone polyester, this tent is significantly lighter and more compact than shelters of the same class. This makes carrying and loading stress-free.

FABRIC

This tent is made of durable Ripstop Polyester fabric. By adding a layer of silicone on the front surface and polyurethane (PU) on the back surface, a high level of tear-resistance and waterproof performance has been achieved. Compared to the commonly used fluorine treatment of materials used in ordinary tents, shelters, and tarps the silicone treatment has the added benefits of significantly increasing tear-resistance and fabric penetration ricks. It is possible to have both a thing and lightweight fabric that is also strong and durable. Water-resistant to 1,500 mm for both 50D and 75D.

Fluorine coating only affects the surface of a fabric, so it adds nothing to the strength of the fabric, but our silicone treatment penetrates the fabric and has the added benefit of significantly increasing its tear resistance.
