What Tents by Use is for

Most people know what they want a tent for before they know what kind of tent they want. This part of the shop starts there. Each range below gathers the tents, shelters and the odd useful extra that suit one kind of trip, whatever their shape or size, so a tipi, a dome and a tunnel tent can sit side by side if they all suit a winter night. Once you have found the right trip, the size ranges and style ranges help narrow it down.

Every range in Tents by Use

How to choose between them

Start with how the tent gets there. If you carry it on your back or a bike, weight and packed size come first, so look at the backpacking, hiking and bike ranges. If it goes in the car, room and comfort come first, so look at camping, festival and beach tents. Then think about the weather and the season: a summer beach shelter and a winter tent with a snow skirt are made for very different nights. Many tents suit more than one trip, so the same tent can appear in several ranges.

Questions people ask about choosing a tent by use

Can one tent do everything?

A light double-layer tent for two will do walking, festivals and campsites well enough. It will not be roomy for a family or warm in snow, so most people who camp often end up with two tents.

Which ranges are for cold weather?

Winter and snow tents, mountain tents and ice fishing tents. Tents that say they are 4-season are also gathered in 4-season tents.

How long does delivery take?

Delivery is included in every price and tracked to your door. Each product page says when that tent usually arrives, so check it before ordering for a set date.
