What is Covered (Manufacturing Defects):
Structural Integrity: Any abnormal snapping, cracking, or failure of structural components (such as grommets, corner reinforcements, or pole attachment points) under normal, recommended use.

Seams & Stitching: Failure of factory-sewn seams, including tie-out loops, guyline attachments, and zipper tracks.

Hardware & Components: Malfunctions of zippers, door toggles, buckles, and tensioners that occur due to production flaws.

Material Integrity: Premature delamination of waterproof coatings or fabric weave failures (on the rainfly or bathtub floor) not caused by external abrasion.

Accidental & Environmental Damage: Tears, punctures, or burns caused by sharp rocks, thorns, high alpine winds exceeding limits, campfires, embers, or animal encounters.

Improper Pitching & Over-tensioning: Damage resulting from incorrect setup, over-tightening guylines, or forcing zippers under extreme tension.

Improper Maintenance & Storage: Fabric degradation or delamination caused by machine washing, harsh chemical detergents, or storing the tent while damp (which leads to mold, mildew, and coating failure).

Yes. Most hikers can comfortably store their backpack in the front vestibule, keeping gear protected from rain while preserving interior sleeping space. Smaller packs may also fit inside the tent alongside the sleeper.

Yes. The Cloud Up 1P can stand on its own using the aluminum pole structure alone, making it easy to pitch on rocky ground, wooden platforms, or other surfaces where staking is difficult. Stakes are still recommended for maximum stability and vestibule setup.

20D ripstop nylon is the secret behind the Cloud Up's impressive strength-to-weight ratio. Specially reinforced to resist tearing, this premium fabric remains exceptionally light, helping reduce pack weight without compromising durability. Combined with a waterproof coating, it delivers reliable protection from the elements while staying compact enough for any adventure.

Yes. The Cloud Up 1P is designed to handle typical backpacking conditions, including heavy rain and winds. Its 20D ripstop nylon rainfly features a 4000 mm waterproof coating, while the freestanding structure and aluminum pole system provide reliable stability in changing weather.

The Cloud Up 1P packs down to approximately 17.7 × 4.7 in (45 × 12 cm), making it easy to fit inside or attach to a backpack without taking up valuable space.

The Cloud Up's smart double-wall design separates the breathable inner tent from the waterproof rainfly, creating continuous airflow throughout the shelter. Combined with integrated ventilation, this helps reduce moisture buildup and keeps the interior drier and more comfortable throughout the night. For the best results, keep vents open whenever possible and avoid bringing wet gear inside the tent.

Yes. The Cloud Up 1P comes with 12 lightweight aluminum stakes and 3 guy lines, providing everything needed for a secure setup in typical backpacking and camping conditions.

For maximum stability in strong winds, we recommend using all stake-out points and guy lines. Some experienced backpackers may choose to carry a few extra stakes for soft sand, snow, or particularly challenging terrain, but no additional stakes are required for normal use.

A footprint isn't required, but it's highly recommended to help protect your tent floor from abrasion, sharp rocks, moisture, and everyday wear. The good news? Every Cloud Up 1P already includes a custom-fit footprint at no extra cost, so you're ready to camp right out of the box.
