Ultralight Tent 1 Person
The X-Mid 1, made by Durston Gear in Canada, is a 1-person tent that has won several awards in recent years for its innovative geometric design. Weighing only 720g, it offers one of the best combinations of lightness, comfort, and protection in its category.
The “X-Mid” geometry utilizes 2 trekking poles in a diagonal configuration, which creates more vertical walls, better aerodynamics, and increased usable volume. The result: an easy-to-pitch tent, stable in windy conditions and surprisingly livable.
When to Use
Ideal for multi-day treks, fast hiking trips, or ultralight backpacking where every gram counts. The double-wall design keeps the interior dry even during rain or condensation, and the outer layer can be set up first before the inner, a clear advantage over traditional shelters.
Perfect for spring, summer, and fall, and even suitable for cold conditions as long as there’s no significant snow accumulation. Its setup using 2 trekking poles and 4 stakes makes it a reliable and lightweight option for those who prioritize efficiency and speed.
Design
The X-Mid structural system creates a surprisingly spacious interior with no sloping walls, allowing for comfortable movement or changing inside. Its 2 vestibules provide ample space for gear and independent access on each side, which is uncommon in such lightweight tents.
The upper vents with mesh reduce condensation and improve airflow, while the full-coverage layer offers complete protection against wind and rain. The fabric tension remains firm even in humidity, and its symmetrical shape allows for quick orientation to the wind.

Made from 15D SIL/PE Polyester (DCF)
The X-Mid 1 uses high tenacity 15D Sil/PE polyester fabric (3,500 mm HH), more stable in humidity than nylon and with an excellent weight-to-strength ratio. This material maintains tension without stretching when wet, is waterproof, and dries quickly.
Factory-sealed seams and YKK AquaGuard zippers ensure long-lasting protection against bad weather.
