- All seams double stitched. Corners are boxed off with 10 inch carbon fiber stays that are sewn into the corners.
- LineLocs™ on all 4 corners for precision tensioning of tent.
- Includes ridge pole, matching stuff sack and reflective tie-out cords.
- Velcro tabs for ridge pole.
- Utilizes a pair of trekking/tent poles, 130 cm +, for setup (not included).
- Requires 6 stakes.
- The lateral ridge pole connecting the inverted trekking/tent poles allows the entire headroom height to be usable space and makes the tent very stable under wind loads.
- Requires seam sealing prior to use.
- Stakes and awning pole sold separately.
- Optional tent poles sold separately.
- Optional orange zipper pulls sold separately.
Instructions:
- Stake out the 4 corners of the tent keeping the floor slightly taut. Make sure sides are squared off and parallel.
- Unzip the mesh door and sit inside on the floor of the tent with the ‘ceiling’ of the tent on top of your head.
- Place both trekking poles extended to between 120 cm and 125 cm handle first into the tent in front of you. Insert one trekking pole tip into one side of the ridge pole.
- Holding the ridge pole in one hand, raise it to ceiling, while sliding the handle of the trekking pole into position in the center of the side wall panel of the tent. There is Velcro to secure the ridge pole in place.
- Slip the second trekking pole tip into the other end of ridge pole and while still holding the ridge pole at the ceiling, slide the second trekking pole handle to its position.
- Extend both trekking poles to about 130 cm so that the tent body is taut. Make sure the ridge pole is centered in the ceiling and secured in place with velcro.
- Step out of the tent and adjust the Line Locks at the 4 corners as needed so that the corners are standing upright and there is no slack in the end walls of the tent.
- Now stake out the fly using the tie out cords provided. The fly will not come all the way down to the ground. It should be 4 inches off the ground to allow airflow under the fly.
- In a heavy rain or high humidity, silnylon will have a tendency to stretch and sag a little. This is normal, you can extend the hiking poles a little to tighten the tent and/or re-stake the tent.
- For the AWNING, place the tip of the awning pole in the grommet at the tip of the awning, and adjust the placement of the pole so the awning is taut. There is a tie out loop with a line lock at the tip of the awning that will need to be staked out.
- To lower the awning for 'storm mode’ remove the awning pole (do not remove the stake to the tie out cord for the awning) and attach a small carabiner to the loop of the line lock, (at the tip of the awning) and the 2 loops that are about 18 inches from the tip of the awning. Tighten the tie out cord going to the tip of the awning so that the fly is now folded and the awning looks the same as the regular fly side.
- There is a small loop at the top of the awning, and an elastic cord with a toggle on the underside of the awning, you can roll the awning up for full views and ventilation by securing the toggle to the loop on the outside of the tent.

Great transfer of a classic set -- except borked Les mistons
A really nice set of one of French cinema's greatest "franchises" -- though we did not call them that back then.
The tone shifts after the 400 blows of course. But it sort of makes sense, too, as things change for the character as well.
But beware, Criterion failed to grade the Les mistons short film correctly. Looks a lot like HDR/SDR gamma was switched or something similar. You can see it from the opening studio logo and credits which are not the right color. Hopefully they will issue a fix. Until then you may want to wait.

Some of Truffaut's greatest works... and they're wonderful
A reviewer here called these a "waste of time" and "weird movies," giving the set 1 star. Sorry, pal, maybe critically acclaimed films by one of France's--or the world's--most important filmmakers isn't your thing. Nothing "weird" about these very accessible, realistic movies about human beings and life. Truffaut did with this series over a course of 20 years what Richard Linklater did in one movie ("Boyhood")... but between 1959 - 1979, Truffaut's attempt was more ambitious, daring, and envelope-pushing. Lead actor Jean-Pierre Leaud goes from a 14 year old to a guy in his 30s, and he's wonderful in every episode. Each film is touching, funny, dramatic, and worth seeing for anyone interested in world cinema. "The 400 Blows" is Truffaut's debut feature, and what a great one it is. It's more serious than the others in this series, and is likely the most lauded. "Antoine & Colette" is a short film made 2-3 years later. "Stolen Kisses" gets more into comedy and it's a delight. "Bed and Board" continues where the previous one left off. "Love on the Run" is decidedly the weakest but is still enjoyable. Truffaut died too young five years after that one was made. One wonders if he and Leaud might have made another entry in the late 80s or even the 90s. Great stuff.

What a Fantastic Release on 4k/BD by Criterion!
I have enjoyed my DVD set of these great Truffaut for years, and am so happy to see this 4K set about to be released. Will be ordering this and looking forward to it. There are copious extras, a booklet, and the full set of Doinel films, including Antoine and Colette.
The first film in the series, THE 400 BLOWS, is considered one of the greatest films of French cinema, and of the Nouvelle Vague (New Wave). It's by turns entertaining, funny, thought-provoking, and heartbreaking. That movie and BED AND BOARD, a domestic comedy that is truly funny, are my favorites. But all the movies here are worth seeing and owning. Criterion rocks.

Be adventurous
Don’t pay attention to that other review. I’ve actually watched all of the Antoine Dionel films and they’re excellent. The 400 Blows is possibly Truffaut’s best. I can’t wait to receive my pre-ordered set of these great films. I hope Jules and Jim hits 4K soon. If you enjoy foreign films but haven’t seen these, you owe it to yourself to at least stream them. If you love them like I do, investing in this set is a no-brainer.

Amazon eGift Card Makes a Great Gift and So Easy to Give
Denomination: 0, Design Name: You're the best. (Animated)
I was so thankful that I could get this gift card on the Amazon website because I just had back surgery and I couldn't get out to the store to get my daughter something for helping me for a week. I just really wanted to show her my appreciation for everything she had done. I didn't know that you could do this and then I Googled it and it said I could. It was so effortlessly and so easy to do. I definitely will be doing this in the future now that I know how well it went.
