PINNACLE OF LIGHTWEIGHT TENT DESIGN

The X-Mid 1 Solid is a variant of the X-Mid 1 that is oriented towards use in colder conditions including winter use and trekking in windswept areas, while still being an excellent all around backpacking tent. It is based on the X-Mid 1 which has been developed from the first principles of geometry to possess the most weight efficient, simple, and storm worthy architecture for a trekking pole shelter. The result is a tent weighing just 29 oz (825 g) while being incredibly storm worthy, user friendly, and spacious. As a very well rounded tent, the X-Mid 1 has become one of the most awarded tents in recent years.

KEY FEATURES OF THE DURSTON X-MID 1 SOLID

  • STORMWORTHY - With the X-Mid the focus is on creating a tent that is ultralight while also thriving in tough conditions. 

  • USER FRIENDLY - Simplicity and user friendliness are a major focus for the X-Mid because when a storm rolls in the last thing you want is a tent that is a hassle to use.

  • SPACIOUS - The X-Mid geometry is the most space efficient use of two poles possible. It does this using a diagonal ridgeline and opposite diagonal floor so the two poles can be positioned further apart for increased headroom and volume.

  • QUALITY - Our focus on creating a highly functional and storm worthy tent means we also focus on quality. It's imperative that you can trust the build of your tent when you're headed into uncertain conditions.

  • PATENTED GEOMETRY - The X-Mid shape has been developed from the first principles of geometry to be as weight efficient, simple, and functional as possible. The X-Mid manages to avoid all the common pitfalls of trekking pole shelters such as a complicated pitch, mandatory guy lines, poles blocking the doorways, and a lack of interior volume.

  • WHAT WE THINK

    The design of the X-Mid is thoughtfully executed, featuring a single door and vestibule that provide easy access while maximising interior space. Despite being a one-person tent, the X-Mid 1 feels surprisingly spacious, with ample headroom and enough room to store gear inside. The solid fabric offers excellent protection from the elements, while ventilation is well-managed to prevent condensation.

    In summary, the Durston Gear X-Mid 1 Solid Ultralight Tent is a fantastic choice for solo adventurers looking for a lightweight, durable, and spacious shelter.
