Extra strong and safe four-season tunnel tent optimised for exposed conditions and challenging terrain. Full height in the entire inner tent and the large vestibule makes tent life comfortable, especially when bad weather keeps you inside. Perfect for advanced winter trekking and tenting above the treeline, but still light enough to fit into a trekking backpack.
All materials and details are carefully selected for their reliability and manageability in cold conditions. For example, adjustments and zipper pullers are big enough to be easily handled with winter gloves on, the guylines have a reflective thread woven in and are extra strong with double adjustments and the ground loops are big enough to be used with skis or poles when using the tent in the snow. The tent pegs are also extra long and wide for superior grip in difficult terrain. Reflectors at the vents and doors make it easy to find your way back to the tent in the dark.
The flysheet and inner tent are connected so the inner tent is protected from getting wet when pitching in the rain. Pole sleeves are colour coded for easy handling and are big enough for double poles (an accessory) so the tent can withstand even higher winds and more snow on the roof.
Inside, the tent is spacious with a generous sitting height. The extra large vestibule has plenty of room for storing gear, cooking and other activities. Two entrances make it easy to get in and out and also give the possibility of using the lee-side door in bad weather. Clotheslines in the vestibule and inner tent as well as several mesh pockets help keep gear organised. There are also attachment points for a Gear Loft (an accessory) in the inner tent.
Large, highly positioned vents give excellent airflow and minimise condensation. All openings have fine mosquito netting and can be covered with the flysheet on the outside if the tent is used in snow or sand. In warm weather the doors can be fastened in a half-opened position – the zippers have an auto-lock function so they won’t “creep” in strong winds – for extra ventilation without rain getting into the inner tent. Mosquito netting in the flysheet doors keeps most insects out of the vestibule which is practical when cooking or if a four-legged friend is with you.
The flysheet is made from Fjällräven’s new high-performance TripleRip nylon fabric. Its innovative construction combines two fabric weights for optimised strength; 40 denier at the top with 70 denier reinforcements at the bottom where abrasion from the ground is the highest. Just like all of Fjällräven’s tents, Keb Endurance 3 is made entirely without PVC plastic and toxic flame retardants, and the impregnation is fluorocarbon free.

A good tent otherwise, but quite heavy. The zipper door of the inner tent is a rainbow model, which is probably the worst possible. You have to open the whole door to get in, which allows any flying bugs to enter. I modded an additional zipper to the lower part of the door myself and turned the sliders of the standard chain to open in opposite directions as standard. Now, if necessary, it only opens from the bottom edge, and bugs can't get in so easily. In the summer, though, this is not comfortable to carry anywhere alone on your back, but it weighs a good 4.5 kilos. The arrangement of the ventilation openings at the ends of the outdoor tent could also be such that the netting is on the outside. Now you have to open the ikka net first, then the outer fabric of the tent and close the jelly net. One work step too many in my opinion and it only affects the appearance a little. Mosquitoes wouldn't get in so easily when working this way.

Stable tent, has only just had time to test it in a simpler environment.
Easy to travel, and trap.
The quality of fabric, seams, loops and loops etc feels solid.
Smart solutions with storage pockets, clothesline, etc. in the tent. Reflectors in the tent ropes, perfect when moving outside the tent when it is dark. You can see the ropes clearly in the light from the headlamp.
Also bought a footprint for the tent that easily stays on the tent and fits in the tent bag with the tent.

Tent for demanding conditions. Spacious tent, foyer very fair in size. The luxury had two exterior doors with sprouting nets and the height of the tent. I wonder why the weed net is not part of the exterior doors of all Fjällräven tents. The downside is the inner door, which stays on the floor when opened. At this price would also like a zipper that opens 360 degrees. Minus also the total weight, which is about 4.5 kg. Due to the weight, we switched to Abisko Endurance 3. Definitely a good purchase if the need for a solid tent is also for winter use and the weight doesn’t hurt.

The tent was very quick to set up and held well water on a trip to Norway. A well-designed whole. The only downside comes from the fact that the tent's bottom rope tore off the fabric with a third erection - however, is guaranteed. In addition, the fabric of the inner tent looks very acidic - even with a little use, you can notice small holes in the door, for example.

Domestic hiking first experience positive. Sure, the weather happened to be optimal (thus not rain-tested yet). The spacious abscess is definitely a Plus, at least for your own use. Tent arches strong, light and handy. The only downside so suddenly is the zipper on the doorways, which I don’t think is the best possible.
