Kaitum 3
$1,290.00
Description

  Maximum usable space, outstanding comfort, and strength in a lightweight package

  Because of its two door/two vestibule configuration, its lightweight yet strong materials and its smart design, the Hilleberg Kaitum 3 provides a stunning balance of super light weight, overall comfort and high strength. Backpackers gravitate toward the Kaitum 3’s light weight and remarkable roominess, as do paddle and bicycle tourers, who also appreciate its small packed size. Hunters, winter campers, ski tourers, and climbers favor the Kaitum 3 because of its all-season strength as well as its low weight. And taller users will find the Kaitum’s plentiful floor space, vertical entrances, and vertical walls a roomy pleasure.

  A note on colors: Fabric dyes have natural variations, so the actual tent color may look slightly different from what is pictured here.
