Description

The Telos two and three-person freestanding tents will radically change your perception of what an ultralight backpacking tent can be. Sea to Summit’s engineers made it their mission to design a tent that is easy to set up and filled with clever functional features. Mission accomplished.

However – there are three additional reasons why Backpacker Magazine bestowed their Editor’s Choice Award on the Telos line of tents: Space, Ventilation and Versatility.

Frequently Asked questions

Why is the Telos heavier than some ultralight tents?

The Telos is made of more durable materials, offers much more internal space, and has better ventilation than some competing tents. The Alto shaves off a few grams for weight-conscious users.

What are the differences between regular and 'plus' models?

The Telos Plus has a nylon fabric inner (with unzippable vents) rather than mesh to prevent cold air getting into the inner tent. It also has a more waterproof floor (4000mm against 2500mm).

Do I need to use a footprint with this tent?

The Telos has a relatively waterproof (2500mm) floor, so can be used in fairly wet (but not downright boggy) conditions without a footprint. However, a footprint will protect the floor from damage on abrasive surfaces.

How is a 'PeU coating' different from a PU coating?

PeU coatings are ether-based. They are much less susceptible to hydrolysis (which is when a urethane coating absorbs moisture and becomes soft or 'sticky', often in storage) - so they are better for rainflys and tent floors.

Will three 200 x 64 cm pads fit in this tent?

No. The TR 3 was primarily designed for ultralight backpackers who generally use smaller pads - three tapered pads will fit.
