How do I store my tent safely?

There’s a few things you should keep in mind:

  • Make sure your tent is completely dry and clean before you store it.

  • Keep your tent in a cool, dry space to avoid mold forming.

  • Extend the life of your tent accessories by taking them apart (partially). 

  • Keep it loose. Don’t shove your tent in a tightly closed bag. Let the fabrics breathe.

 

Set up instructions: How do I pitch a tent correctly?

  1. Begin with laying out the footprint of the tent. 

  2. Collect the poles and ropes on the spot you’ll need them. For example, put the poles you’ll need in the corner at the corner of the footprint.

  3. Bring out the tent sail and align with the footprint.

  4. Attach the different sails to one another.

  5. Attach the tent sail to the poles and ropes.

  6. Set up the corners first, then the middle and lastly the sides.

  7. Adjust the ropes till everything is tight and sturdy.
