FAQs

How many seasons is this tent rated for? Can I use this tent year round?

• The Tracker is a 3-season tent. While not a 4-season alpine tent it has specs that can handle year round use and handles winds well. These tents are versatile and prioritize breathability, ventilation, and protection from rain and wind to handle New Zealand’s challenging weather conditions. Note that while these tents are excellent for the majority of camping situations, they are not recommended for winter alpine camping or extreme weather conditions when specialized alpine tents designed for winter or 4-season are more appropriate.

What is silnylon? And polyester?

• Silicone-coated nylon (silnylon) often with a polyurethane PU coating in the underside and polyester with a polyurethane (PU) coating are two different types of materials used in the construction of camping tents. A thinner, lighter silnylon fabric than more traditional thicker polyester makes for a lighter more compact packed tent. The silicone coating adds to tear strength and a waterproof PU coating means seams can be taped. Read our Tent Fabrics intro for more info  

What is the difference between the Tracker Pro 2 and the Tracker 2 tents?

• The tent design is the same but the fabric and some of the componentry is different. The Tracker 2 Pro is made using a lighter Silnylon fabric making it around 250g lighter with a smaller packed size. It also has YKK zips, hi-viz zipper pulls and tensioners, and comes in a green fly and grey floor. The Tracker 2 Polyester tent is made using a thicker, heavier Polyester fabric meaning it is a little heavier at 1.95kg and packs down a little heavier that the PRO version, standard zips and zipper pulls. Colour options are Olive green and Orange.

Is this suitable for 2 people?

• greater protection of the tent floor extending its life
• keeps the floor clean
• boosts floor waterproofing in wet conditions
