The Orson Indie 2 ultralight 2 person tent is a highly sought-after choice for New Zealand adventurers, hikers, and backpackers focused on minimising pack weight over long distances. If you need a premium, portable shelter, the Indie 2 is designed to go the distance. Weighing in at just 1.35 kg, this ultralight tent ensures your load remains minimal while offering maximum performance on the trail.
This tent is built using high-quality Ripstop Silnylon, an advanced nylon fabric that is significantly lighter and stronger than conventional, heavier polyester alternatives. For superior weather protection and simplified set-up, the fabric features a sophisticated dual-coating system: a silicone coating on the upper side enhances the fabric's overall strength and durability, while a polyurethane (PU) waterproof coating on the underside allows for a crucial benefit: factory heat-taped seams.
This factory-sealed system means you get reliable, watertight performance right out of the bag, eliminating the need for messy liquid seam sealants—a huge advantage for any lightweight tramping tent. The Orson Indie 2 delivers maximum performance while keeping your pack minimal, ensuring you are equipped for any adventure across NZ.
