The lightest of the light, Zpacks' sub-12oz Plex Solo Lite is easily the lightest full-featured one-person tent in the world. Designed for adventurers who value weight but aren't willing to sacrifice performance or comfort, the Plex Solo is the ultimate shelter for weight-conscious hikers looking to redefine boundaries and push limits.

The Plex Solo Lite shares the same dimensions as Zpacks' standard Plex Solo Tent. It utilizes their proven 0.55 oz/sq yd Dyneema® Composite Fabric canopy combined with a .75 oz/sq yd DCF floor material, which is 25% lighter and packs down smaller relative to Zpacks' standard tent floors. The Plex Solo Lite comes preconfigured with bright yellow 1.3 mm Z-Line guy lines, which saves weight compared to the 2 mm guy lines on our standard tents.

Easily pitching with a single 52"/132 cm trekking pole or tent pole, the Plex Solo Lite is well-ventilated and can be set up in even the tightest camp sites. You won’t find a lighter, functional one-person tent anywhere.

Features:

• Taped seams
• Tie outs have bonded reinforcements for high strength
• Storm doors can be opened or closed independently
• Overlapping storm doors allow airflow without the need for additional venting - no zippers that could potentially fail over time
• Vestibule has enough space for storing a wet backpack or muddy shoes
• Rainbow zipper on screen door allows easy entry regardless of which storm door is closed
• Screen door drops inwards rather than hanging in your way - no need to roll up or secure
• Tarp overhangs bathtub floor & screen doors - in calm rain or under dripping trees the doors can be left open for air flow without water dripping on the floor space
• Sewn-in 8" tall bathtub floor has plenty of space to stretch out, with room for your gear beside you or at the ends of the floor
• Mesh pocket conveniently located near screen door can be accessed from inside or outside the tent
• Dyneema® is naturally waterproof and is not treated with any potentially harmful chemicals such as flame retardants or water repellents
• Easily repairable - any damage can easily be fixed in the field with DCF Repair Tape (included)
