Big Agnes String Ridge VST 1.5 Tent
Add these items to your order
VST tents are built around real user needs, pairing innovative materials with thoughtful design to create a refined ultralight shelter. They maximise usable space for you and your gear while staying lightweight, durable, and dependable. Hyperbead™ fabric, a hybrid single/double wall build, and integrated ventilation work together to improve airflow and reduce condensation—so you can cut weight without compromise.
The String Ridge VST balances minimal weight with a stable, reliable structure. Its slightly larger footprint gives you protected space for gear—or a four-legged companion—while the externally supported asymmetrical design opens up a roomy interior with space to spread out and reset for the next day.
