The Cave XL 4-Season

We have realised that our expertise can be used to find better fabrics, fairer working conditions, better trained manufacturers, cleaner production routes and more thoughtful designs. They say quality is about meeting expectations. Why just meet them when you can exceed them? We keep going until there is nothing left to improve. Is that an unrealistic goal?

The Cave XL 4-Season

The tent was designed and tested to withstand all seasons in Iceland - a country known for its dramatic weather conditions and temperatures. The Cave XL 4-Season owes its superior strength to its geodesic dome construction with ten crossing points and high-quality weatherproof, durable materials that withstand wind, snow and rain. The bright orange color is inspired by the shelters in the Icelandic highlands and designed to stand out against the Icelandic landscape.

The tent

Setting up our tents works intuitively and follows a simple principle: Unroll, inflate - done! The special feature: the inflatable frame, inner and Flysheet function as a unit and do not need to be assembled. With a pump, the tent can be pitched in less than a minute and offers space for 3 people.

GEODESIC PRINCIPLE

The Cave XL 4-Season owes its outstanding strength to its geodesic dome construction with ten crossing points - this guarantees excellent stability - even in strong winds, rain and snow!

The material

For the new outer tent fabric, we specifically looked for a material that should be more resilient but also lighter than before. That's why we chose a high tenacity polyester with 40D yarn and a double ripstop construction. High tenacity polyester yarn has a higher tensile strength than regular polyester yarns. Accordingly, our new tent fabric also has a higher tensile strength. For us, polyester is still the best tent fabric for our tent constructions, especially with a high tenacity polyester yarn.
