Big Agnes String Ridge VST 2.5 Tent
Add these items to your order
Big Agnes brings its award-winning HyperBead fabric to the String Ridge VST 2.5, a trekking pole tent built for two hikers after genuine ultralight weight without giving up liveability.
A hybrid single/double-wall construction pairs with integrated ventilation to cut condensation, so you wake to a dry pitch even after a still, humid night.
The externally supported, asymmetrical design opens up a genuinely spacious two-person shelter, and the extra "0.5" of room leaves dedicated space to stash a pack or curl up with the dog.
It pitches with three trekking poles,( Not Included) keeping pack weight down without a dedicated pole set.
Features
- Proprietary HyperBead fabric technology delivers the ideal balance of strength, durability and weight, without compromising on protection.
- Hybrid single/double-wall design with integrated ventilation drastically reduces condensation without requiring additional setup.
- Extra "0.5" sizing provides bonus room inside the tent for a backpack and/or a four-legged companion.
- Recycled, solution-dyed polyester fabric provides increased dimensional stability compared to a traditional nylon tent fabric, making it especially suited to semi-freestanding tents.
- Trekking pole architecture with exterior support optimises interior space and makes for easier setup.
- Requires three telescoping trekking poles, extending to 120cm and collapsing to ~65cm, for complete setup (poles not included).
- ErgoZip ergonomically designed fly zippers slide easily from any position.
- YKK DynaPel fly zippers slide more easily and are more durable than traditional water-repellent zippers, using sustainable materials with no intentionally added PFAS.
- Comfort-first floorplan fits two 63.5cm (25") wide sleeping pads side by side.
- Pair with a Big Agnes footprint (sold separately) to extend the life of your tent floor.
