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.

  Brand collaborations can sometimes feel like low-hanging fruit— but well still snatch these limited-edition gear runs as soon as they drop.

But you know what? Merrell still makes...
A Beginner’s Guide to Watch Straps
  I was talking with a friend about his watch a few years ago when I was fairly new to the hobby of watch collecting. It had been a gift from his wife for their wedding back in 2017 and he wore it every day. The original leather strap had become worn and a bit cracked in some places near the...

An Ultralight Tent Without the Ultralight Tradeoffs: NEMO Hornet OSMO 3P Tent Review
  My climbing partner and I leaned back against a makeshift rock windbreak, looking out over the southern Gore Range just above treeline. We nervously monitored a deep black wall of cloud creeping toward us from the south, drenching and engulfing everything in its path in darkness.   It started with a burst of heavy hail. That sent us diving into the...

A Different Kind of Recyclable Carbon Bike Wheel: HUNT H_Cyclo
  Recyclable carbon wheels have been around for a few years. However, until HUNTs H-Cyclo, they differed in construction and physical properties relative to traditional carbon bicycle wheels, frames, and forks.   HUNT Bike Wheel has seemingly solved the Rubiks cube, allowing the brand to recycle traditional thermoset carbon wheels back into materials that can form other carbon parts. The British brand...

Lust-Worthy Custom Cycles: Eye Candy From MADE Bike Show 2024
  Another significant aspect of the 2024 MADE Bike Show was the extraordinary artistic talent that merged with blue-collar skills like welding, brazing, and painting. This combination churned out two-wheeled works of art that demanded long stares and bewildered scrutiny.   Although these eye-candy bicycles sometimes employed modern technologies, the visual tractor beam emanating from these builds made me stop in my...
