Exped Vela I Green

An ultralight, spacious shelter in a quick setup design, featuring Exped‘s innovative, Zipfree door (patent pending). Rainfly of PU coated Polyester.

- Large vestibule, easily accessed from inside Vela I, is large enough for all your gear. The door is easily raised to offer a view but still protects from the elements.
- Large floor plan is especially long and wide, making it possible to bring gear inside or to help out a stranded, second person.
- Ventilation is maximized in this storm proof design. The rainfly can be rolled up from either end, and both ends of the canopy have mesh windows. A hood protected vent enhances the chimney effect for venting. The foot end is aerodynamically shaped and can be completely tied down to face high winds. The head end features a mesh window.
- Tie down loops attach directly to the pole sleeves for maximum stability in wind.
- Ingenious, flat pole sleeve improves aerodynamics in wind and rain. Double seams and stitching offer extreme strength.
- Setup requires just 2 stakes. Additional tie down loops make Vela I absolutely storm proof!
