Kaitum 3 GT
$1,480.00
Description

  Remarkable two door/two vestibule tent with maximum usable space

  Because of its two entrance/two vestibule configuration, its lightweight yet strong materials and its construction, the Hilleberg Kaitum 3 GT provides a stunning balance of super light weight, overall comfort and high strength. Backpackers gravitate toward the Kaitum 3 GT’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 GT because of its all-season strength as well as its low weight. And taller users will find the Kaitum 3 GT’s plentiful floor space, vertical entrances, and vertical walls a roomy pleasure.

  These users opt for the Kaitum 3 GT over the Kaitum 3 when their trips demand the increased space and flexibility the extended GT vestibule affords: with very little weight penalty, the larger vestibule offers considerably more space for both gear storage/sorting and food preparation. The extended GT vestibule also has two entrances, one on the side and one up front, on the opposite side, offering both more entry/exit options. And by rolling back the front section of the extended vestibule, you create a full tent-width “covered porch” deep enough to keep all but the worst weather away from the inner tent door.

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

beachBUB All-in-One Umbrella Review: A Beach Umbrella That Actually Stands Up to Wind
  Chasing your flimsy, old beach umbrella down the beach is never fun. Beach days are meant for relaxing in the sun while still avoiding a painful sunburn. The problem with most beach umbrellas is that they are cheap, and their design makes them inherently susceptible to the effects of the wind.   When the wind picks up, you often have to...
World’s Only Made-in-Italy Running Shoe: Meet the Diadora Atomo V7000-2
  Asking for directions in Italy can lead to one of two replies: do you want the fastest way or the most beautiful way? This is an exaggerated way of explaining an Italian approach to life. Passion for experience and enjoyment in life can be prized over speed and efficiency. It’s a beautiful sentiment but one that seems at odds with...

Stretch Your Expectations With This Hardshell Hybrid: Rab Kinetic Alpine 2.0 Jacket Review
  The winds were whipping high on the ridge, and cumulonimbus clouds were building — the perfect signals to throw on a layer. As I got knocked around by gusts deep in the Kofa Wilderness of Arizona, I tossed on my Rab Kinetic Alpine 2.0 Jacket and remained hyper-focused on not stumbling into one of the jumping cholla cacti that consumed...
Courtney Dauwalter’s Amazing Year: Watch Trail Running’s GOAT Survive the ‘Pain Cave’
  Courtney Dauwalter is one of those runners whose accomplishments are so incredible even casual observers grasp the insanity.

Indeed, GOAT seems especially...

Not Your Dad’s Brush Pants: KUIU Women’s PRO Brush Pants Review
  It’s no secret that women have a fraction of the choices for hunting clothes as men. When looking for more specialized items (like brush pants), the pickings get even slimmer. Add in my personal touch of pickiness about fit, pockets, or fabric weight, and it often results in zero options.   I was in this boat. I’d found a pair of...
Buy Your E-Bike Now — Biden Tariffs Already Hiking Prices
  Its no secret that the bike industry has struggled to maintain profitability in the last few years — and now it will get even worse.

However, the change will likely have the opposite effect on...
