Why design the poles on the outside of the tent.

One of the most distinctive features of Nortent tents is the integration of the inner and outer tents. This design allows the flysheet, or outer tent, to be pitched first, providing essential protection for the inner tent during setup. In harsh weather conditions, such as rain or snow, this is a game-changer, as the inner tent remains completely shielded from the elements and stays dry throughout the setup process.

This design is particularly advantageous for backpackers and adventurers who often have to set up camp in challenging weather. With the outer flysheet serving as the first layer of defense against wind and rain, it creates a secure shelter before the inner tent is even exposed. Once the flysheet is erected, the inner tent can be easily attached, keeping it dry and safe from water intrusion. This approach ensures adventurers stay comfortable and dry, even when the weather is unpredictable.

In addition. This design is crucial because it prevents the poles from damaging the flysheet in the event of a breakage. In traditional tents, broken poles often puncture the outer fabric, especially in high winds or under the weight of snow. By positioning the poles externally, Nortent eliminates this risk, ensuring that even if a pole snaps, the flysheet remains intact. This thoughtful design significantly boosts the tent’s durability and resilience, allowing it to perform reliably in extreme conditions even if unexpected damage.
