Force Ten have been innovating outdoor gear since they introduced A-Frame expedition tents way back the 1960s. Technical mountain gear has come a long way since then, but their ethos of quality and functionality remains.

The Force Ten Xenon Ultralight 2 is a light, robust tent with a low weight and small pack size that makes it ideal for expeditioners and multi-day trekkers, and ideal for unplanned overnight stops.

It's built for convenience with comfort, with a two-pole 'Gothic Arch' tunnel design that's simple to pitch and gives you plenty of headroom inside. A large vent over the door allows for easy airflow, and shelters the doorway from rain while the door is open. Plentiful storage options and a very stable design make the Xenon UL 2 a reliable performer, whatever the conditions.

* the tent's 'trail weight' refers to the weight of only the outer flysheet, inner tent and poles. This could be useful in expedition circumstances, which may allow you to carry the tent without the pegs and bag.
