The Triplex Pro three person ultralight tent offers refined upgrades that make it even more dependable for adventurous couples and small families. The Pro features waterproof, durable Dyneema® Composite Fabric, zippered storm doors, and magnet toggles that are trail tested to go the distance.

The symmetrical layout gives you the freedom to pitch in any direction for better views, improved airflow, or wind protection. Double-L screen door zippers allow for easy access on either side of the trekking pole, and the doors drape to block mosquitoes from chasing you into the tent.

The wide floor space can fit a pair of large sleeping pads with room to spare for gear, or bring along a child or dog.

When you want an ultralight shelter that doesn’t feel cramped is just as ready for big trips as you are, then there’s no better choice than the Triplex Pro.

*THE TRIPLEX ZIP HAS BEEN UPDATED AND REPLACED TO THE TRIPLEX PRO AS OF JULY 2025*

Our award-winning Triplex Tent just got better. The new Triplex Zip Tent comes with several enhancements that make it even more versatile and user-friendly for all your outdoor adventures.

We added zippered storm doors with peak vents to provide extra protection from wind and rain without sacrificing ventilation. The storm doors are easy to open and close, allowing you to adjust the airflow inside the tent as needed.

We've introduced magnetic door toggles that make it easier to secure the tent doors out of the way without having to fumble with clunky closures. The magnetic toggles are strong and secure, designed to ensure the doors stay rolled up in windy conditions.

Just like our Triplex, the Triplex Zip Tent is lightweight, roomy, well-ventilated, packs down small, pitches easily, and can be set up in the tightest of spaces. You won’t find lighter functional three person tents anywhere on the market.

An optional flat groundsheet is available for added protection here.

Tyvek "Home Wrap" is an ideal material for ground sheets. It is waterproof, and very abrasion and puncture resistant. Tyvek is stiff, and foldable like thick paper. It will not bunch up or slide around under you like other fabrics.

Fold up the edges and tape the corners to make yourself a bathtub floor for your tarp. Cut it to size using regular scissors to make a tent footprint. It does not fray and you do not need to hem or tape the edges.

This material is white on one side, with a blue and red Tyvek logo printed on the other side.

The Umbrella Holster allows you to keep your hands free while protecting yourself from the rain and sun with an ultralight umbrella. It easily attaches to the daisy chain on most backpack's straps. In calm weather you can keep both hands on your trekking poles, while in strong wind or driving rain you can rest one hand on the umbrella to control the angle.

The Umbrella Holster consists of a clip and an adjustable shock cord loop that attaches to your shoulder strap.

Attach the buckle above the sternum strap on your strap's daisy chain and then attach the shock cord loop at the bottom of the daisy chain. Insert your umbrella into the clip and then cinch the shock cord tight around the umbrella’s handle.

Umbrella Holsters are compatible with Shoulder Pouches- the attachments can be positioned above and below the pouch, and the handle will ride to the inner side of the pouch.

Consider purchasing two holsters for both straps so that you can easily move the umbrella to your left or right side depending on where the sun or rain is coming from.

Perfect for use with our Lotus UL Umbrella.

The strap held my bear canister very well for my trip to the Adirondacks where a bear canister was required. Great product.

– Glen F., ★★★★★

Our V Top Strap adds additional stability when you’re carrying heavier items on the top of your backpack. It is a little bit more secure than the standard, single top strap.

It can be used to carry a bear canister so long as the canister can squish into your gear as shown. Alternatively, a canister can also be carried standing vertically inside the pack.

The V Top Strap is modular and can be added or removed from your pack as necessary. Our normal, single top strap is also included when you add this option.

These Top straps are not compatible with the Nero backpack.  If you need a V Top Strap for your Nero, you'll can purchase one specifically designed to work with one here.

The kilt packs down to nothing and very very light weight. Far better than carrying rain trousers at 5 times plus for weight. The kilt is very easy to use quickly and no need to take boots off. A great idea that keeps you dry with good quality materials and finish. Arrived quickly when ordered.

– Ian M., ★★★★★

The Vertice Kilt is a unique solution to staying cool in warm weather storms, and is a great option for ultralight waist to knee rain protection.
