Great tent!
A very high quality tent. There are many YouTube videos on this tent and it is a perfect size for one person. My only gripe would be the poles. You can immediately feel the heaviness of them. Don’t let that discourage you this tent is well worth the money. I’m 5’9” and I can sit up in this tent quite well.Another reviewer mentioned replacement poles cost $80. This is not true you can find two replacement aluminum ones for $20 here on Amazon. I will eventually replace mine with lighter aluminum poles.Update 2 days later:I immediately put up this tent when it arrived I left it up for two incredibly rainy and stormy days and night. Not one drop of water got in. One of those two nights I slept in the tent. Comfortable and dry.Condensation is a very minor issue however. 5 stars. Very impressed and happy with it.

The tent with a smile
All in all it is a good tent. The fly is alittle more dense slightly thicker material. It is Well built.The fiberglass poles are a little tight on Assembly. Easy to set up. One thing comes to mind the tent pegs and guidelines. The set that comes with the tent, you have 13 pegs and 4 guidelines. As you can see below a photo showing a ruler the peg below the ruler are like a spaghetti noodle- frail. The guideline is a flat braided crod. I would not use these as my shoelaces. On the top half of the ruler.I bought 325 paracord @ 50' , cut at 8 feet / 4*.One end of the cord is a figure 8 loop knot the other end is a 3-hole tensioner figure 9 descender ring guideline adjuster. This setup is fast assembly and multi adjustable hassle free.I bought a 14 pack of freehawk tent pegs much better quality pegs that are aluminum and strong. Inside the tent I have a 30 inch wide air mat I was able to get my 90 liter pack inside a little tight not bad for those heavy rainy nights. I am 6' foot tall and average 160 lb.

Performed well, including heavy rain and wind ( - :
Foreword: I heavily researched "one man tents" before ordering the Mil-tec and it's important to keep in mind the price point, the intended use and the limitations involved. This category has slightly more space than a bivy-bag, but you can't sit up or read a book like a dome style tent. A three season tent was also sufficient. In addition, I fully inspected the tent, the rain fly and all contents prior to departure. Everything was in order including the stitching.After setting and breaking camp three times in the same week in varrying conditions, you quickly learn the pros and cons of your camping related gear.Overall, the Mil-tec One Man Tent system performed well, including heavy rainfall on the last night out. This was deep in the hills of KY at a higher elevation which did include some protection by the trees. The wind was also strong on the last night, but strong wind and trees create a strange type of turbulence. The tent and rain fly didn't budge and I slept like a bear in hibernation.The olive green color of the material is a nice blend for a Spring/Summer wooded environment, but some sheen is present on the rain fly. This is likely part of what helps it repel water. This is a low profile system and can't be seen if placed appropriately. The tent alone does have some black, but most mesh screens are black. The tent pole pockets are also black and perforated to improve ventilation.The base or tub of this tent is a strong feature and kept me dry from run off and splash. I was using a footprint tarp, but rain will always find a way to soak things when camping. In this case, the interior remained dry and I had items placed against the interior of the tub.A side note on the actual shape of the tub is worth mentioning. There is an offset to the right to provide a place for a few things or if you are a right side sleeper, you will find the extra space usefull.Ventilation without the rain fly is fairly well distributed and is integrated into the tent pole sleeves with ample amounts avaible at the head, foot and side entry door flap. The mesh screens are effective for keeping insects out and the door flap zipper performed without any issues. Ventilation with the rain fly is drastically reduced however, but the extended portion at the entry point was very useful and sheltered my shoes/boots, lattern, etc. during sleep periods. There are three pop-up vents built into the rain fly that are helpful, but are limited to maintain protection from strong rain. They work as intended, can be velcro closed, but a helpful tip is to make a peak at the foot of the rain fly with a stick. It made a HUGE difference in the overall ventilation comfort and did not affect protection from the rain. (Why the manufacturer didn't integrate a solution into this is simply not understandable). It's such a simple fix and makes the tent system all the more effective. Just sewing another standardized nylon tab in the center would allow for a better option. A string and a stick woukd work wonders.My only real con and a very minor one at that is the cheap, thin nylon tie off lines for the rain fly. They work, but just replace them with paracord and be done with it.In closing, I would buy this tent again, especially at this price point and from the same supplier in the UK. They were very responsive during communications and the item arrived ahead of schedule.I know someone will ask if this tent system us too heavy for backpacking and for hikes less than 10 miles, I would say no. For longer hike, probably yes but it depends on you and all the gear you probably don't need in the first place.The morning of my last day out was partly sunny and even thru the heavy forestation, the rainfly dried quickly. It was a perfect morning to pack and rack the gear. I did miss reading in the tent before sleep, but I had nature to rock me to sleep.

flawless
I spent several days trying to decide which one to get “They all looked really awesome”. Winter is fast approaching and I could not make up my mind so I got all three.One Man Olive Green ReconOne Man Mil-Tec Coyote ReconOne Man Flecktarn ReconI really get nervous about ordering from overseas so of course I was a bit jittery and kept emailing to make sure everything would go smoothly, I even asked for copy of the shipping documents which they eagerly supplied. I have never experienced such superior customer serviceThey even set me a photo of the package before they shipped it out and kept me updated almost every day until it arrived. I had some issues with the tracking number and they were right on point. Before I could even start to track the package again it arrived a month early, totally awesome! Still have no idea how a package can get from the UK to New York and about seven days.The tents are without a doubt the Best tents I own now, double stitched all the way, enough room for me and my gear, very low profile, and true to color in the photos “not like those other combat tents that show up in pink claiming to be coyote or tan”Took one out for a test run this weekend “flawless” I can’t wait for the snow.Highly recommended, Epic Militaria is the best!!.

Spacious and lightweight one man tent, perfect for stealth on a long thru-hike
I bought this tent back in 2015 for $120. I'm 6'3" and found this tent to be perfect length, fitting myself and my pack no problem. Comfortable to sit up against my pack and read, the design could be improved on, however, if there was a spot to hang a lantern or flashlight. I lived in it for nearly 2 months Aug/Sept on hiking trails and I have also tested it out winter camping. It kept up well in the abuse, not a single tear or pole fracture. I ended up ditching the pegs on my journey and had no problems in mild wind even without them, it has a good shape so that the wind just goes right over it.It truly is a perfect camo for Canadian forests. I had stealth camped with no problems in small patches of forest in the middle of city parks and felt pretty invisible. The tent gets good ventilation and was absolutely perfect in the hot summer months, but as for my winter experience it was rather cold even with my sleeping bag rated at -30c and thermal clothes. It was a -15c degree night and I certainly did not sleep very much! If I had a thermal sleeping mat maybe it would have been doable. I would say that it is not suitable for winter, but very well suited for the summer. It keeps dry in light rain, protecting your stinky hiking boots kept outside of the inner parts of the tent but still covered by the rain fly. The only drawback, is that in more intense rainfalls water can start to pool in the triangle shaped top and leak through, but only after considerable time. Some water-proofing spray will certainly fix that, or simply put a stick across it under the rainfly. All in all its a great tent and I plan on buying it again!

Solid little tent
Bought one of these tents after watching the Wiltshire Man review on Youtube. It’s definitely quite stable and waterproof in wet and windy weather (maybe just a bit of condensation). A bit heavy although I guess that adds to the stability. The little vestibule area is good for putting wet boots and giving a bit of shelter to the inner part of the tent. I really like the stealth-camp design, chuck a camo-net over it and it really does blend in to the environment. Can be a bit difficult to put up in windy weather so probably best to practise putting it up in bad weather before taking it on a hike.

Gutes Einmannzelt im Flecktarnlook
Meine Bewertung beruht auf persönlicher Erfahrung mit dem Zelt und seiner Beschreibung, nicht auf den Vergleich mit anderen, teureren Einmannzelten. Gibt es leichtere mit geringerem Packmaß? Sicherlich, aber nicht zu diesem Preis. Gewicht und Packmaß sind jedoch gut, wenn man nicht unbedingt Ultralight Backpacking betreibt.Ich habe das Zelt im letzen Jahr ausführlich genutzt, auch bei leichtem Regen und Wind. Das Zelt war trocken, Wind kein Problem, das Zelt war stabil. Oft habe ich es nur Stundenweise aufgestellt, wofür kein Abspannen nötig war. Das ganze Zelt läßt sich dann problemlos im Ganzen versetzen bei Bedarf.Das Zelt läßt sich leicht und schnell aufbauen, mit etwas Übung unter 10 Minuten. Das Moskitonetz ist dicht und in einer lauen Sommernacht kann man bei Bedarf die Außenhülle problemlos weglassen. Auch das Abbauen geht in 5 Minuten von statten. Erst die Stangen entfernen (die Ösen sind ausreichend groß, dass nicht dauern etwas hängen bleibt), anschließend die Außenhaut und das Innenzelt in den Sack stopfen (nicht falten oder rollen), wie bei einem Schlafsack. Durch den Knittereffekt erhöht sich auch die Tarnung noch.Belüftung ist außreichend mit den beiden Belüftungsklappen. Leider kann man diese nicht von Innen öffnen oder schließen, was ein kleiner Nachteil ist in der Nacht oder wenn es regnet, aber das ist mein einziger Kritikpunkt.Für mich, ca. 1,70, ist genug Platz im Zelt um mich auszustrecken und zusätzlich den Rucksack im Zelt zu verstauen. Auch kann ich aufsitzen, ohne mit dem Kopf an die Zeltdecke anzustoßen. Für größere Menschen funktioniert dies vermutlich nicht so gut.Durch die Querstange und die Außenhaut entsteht eine kleine Absis neben dem Eingang. Dort stelle ich meine Schuhe/Stiefel ab. Auch kochen könnte dort (mit entsprechend adequatem Kocher, Hobo-Ofen hier nicht zu empfehlen) möglich sein im Notfall, aber habe ich bisher nicht ausprobiert. Kochen lieber vor dem Zelt und geöffneter Tür.Auch bei geringen Temparaturen (5 - 10 Grad) war es im Zelt angenehm bei geschlossenen Türen. Mit 6 Teelichten war es sogar gemütlich im T-Shirt.Das Zelt hat ein sehr kleines Profil und fällt durch das zusätzliche Flecktarn im Wald kaum auf. In Verbindung mit einem Tarnetz läßt sich die Tarnung noch erhöhen. Ich bin sehr zufrieden mit dem Zelt und kann es weiterempfehlen.

Rapport qualité prix au top.
Tente monoplace qui s'avère être plutôt spacieuse.La mienne est pliée et rangée dans un sac à dos 30L.Discret et efficace.
