Jack Wolfskin was among the first brands to eliminate forever chemicals in its waterproof jackets. With its Spring/Summer 2024 tent range, the company applies the same principles to its lightweight shelters.
The collection features 22 models made from recycled materials, with the outer tent, inner tent, and groundsheet all crafted from 100% recycled, PFC-free fabric.
Focusing on lightweight designs for trekking, bikepacking, and hiking, Jack Wolfskin uses high-quality, tear-resistant nylon fabrics and eco-friendly DAC aluminium poles to achieve minimal weight without compromising wind stability.
The tents are easy to set up and include organisational options, reflective elements, and vestibules for gear storage.
The range introduces three new tunnel tents and two new dome tents, combining lightness with stability, thanks to their aluminium poles.
The Stratos Lite III (RRP £700) is the top-of-the-range model. This super lightweight 3-person backpacking tent (2,320 g) features two entrances and rainproof vestibules for luggage. Made from recycled, PFC-free materials, the tent includes tear-resistant, waterproof 20D nylon fabric and a floor with a 6,000 mm water column.
The North Tunnel III (RRP £550) is a spacious, wind-stable, and lightweight tent designed for three people, perfect for multi-day tours or camping trips in spring, summer, or autumn.
