Hon Hon Hon. This cozy, classic-styled, tent is perfect for outings in the woods.

Inspired by the US A-frame pup tent, but made of heavy-duty nylon for better waterproofing than its cotton counterparts as well as reducing weight.

It has an integrated rainfly, tub-style sealed floor to keep you dry, and mesh vents on the top of the doors as well as the interior that can be opened to let out any excess heat in the tent. For the "Khaki" version, a mosquito net is included on both doors.

Additionally, each end of the tent has a double zippered door split down the middle to allow for partial opening. 

Tips and DIY Improvements

  • As with basically any tent, it's recommended that you replace the stakes it comes with and get lightweight stakes to lower the weight a bit. 
  • The two support poles can be ditched in favor of your trusty trekking poles, if you want to cut down the weight and bulk even more.
  • The tent is not 100% Storm-Proof. You might want to get an auxiliary rain tarp for heavy rain. you can also treat the tent with various different agents to make it more waterproof but you still might want another tarp in case of torrential downpour.

French F1

Seems to be well constructed. Good ventilation. Very light weight, when the stakes are excluded. Plenty of room for one man. Mine was missing one guy line, and had some tree sap on it. But, it is more than serviceable

Great little tent

Great tent. Set it up just to see it standing so far and it is definitely a one man and some gear tent. Though you could fit a second person in a pinch. Great quality and is in great unissued condition.

Out of the Box it Needs work, but still a good buy!

Fellas, I took this out of the package from the mail and put into my pack for a 3 day adventure ride. Don’t do this, this tent is good for the money but it needs some work.

Pros:

Cheap

French

Long like that French rifle ammo for my tall ass

Cons:

Not the most waterproof, the top vent doesn’t have a flap and it let water in during a Missouri thunderstorm overnight. It also let dew in.

The ropes that cam with it worked well, but with how water logged they got, they should be replaced.

The stakes were only okay.

If you like neat surplus, this tent will get the job done when it’s dry right out of the box.

I would suggest some paracord tie downs, modern stakes, and a hefty waterproofing coating, and a rain fly.
