Tarptent
Reddit take
Not enough linked mention summaries yet; the source excerpts below are the evidence.
Pros
- Also look at Tarptent, Six Moon Designs, MLD, etc...
- Tarptent - they've helped me so much that I feel guilty. ... I get *so many miles* out of a Tarptent - my current has two PCT thrus and two AZT and a CDT and is still going right now on the TA...
- Tarptent solid inners are generally slightly lighter than the equivalent mesh inners.
- Huge tarptent fan, own a Double rainbow and now also a carbon pole single rainbow.
- I use gear from Zpacks, HMG, and Tarptent and have had zero problems with quality.
Cons
- A good price point from a trusted company. Then again... a hot take but it seems like tarptent is doing a little less innovation and a little more pulling inspiration. This seems like a yama cerriform.
- He's top at customer service. Too bad they're constantly out of stock of everything. They have severe supply chain issues that's frustrating as hell and definitely not ideal.
- Check tarptent. $28 each. 3.5 oz.
- Tarptent, HMG, and Gossamer Gear have move production overseas, but all started as small US made cottage companies. They're still small to some degree but got too big to keep quality up with the demand in the US.

I used a big Agnes tent for both my pct thrus, as well as the azt and at. Can’t go wrong really, but Nemo, BA, and tarptent are all tried and true.
