Tents

CANVAS TENTS:

Canvas, a mix of polyester for strength and cotton for breathability, is a great tent fabric. Being breathable, they can be made with just one layer of fabric making them easy to put up, pack away and care for. Used with a steel frame, these are very strong structures ensuring that you will have a comfortable camping experience almost regardless of the conditions.

Dwights have been manufacturing and selling canvas tents for over 30 years so we know our craft. Years of experience have taught us about the best componentry and construction techniques. In the "GO Camping" range we have options perfect for long stays or short stays, in a variety of sizes and covering many price ranges.

The team at Dwights have over 100 years combined experience in the manufacture and repair of outdoor equipment. Add to this that our staff have been members of various outdoor product development committees for many years, so you can be assured that our products will perform, and the quality of your holiday will be enhanced. We use these tents ourselves!

Before packaging, each one of these new "GO Camping" canvas tents is pitched and inspected by a team of technicians to ensure quality of the product.

Every tent in the "GO Camping" range is manufactured to the "Dwights Quality Assurance Standards"; we sell products you can trust!

We constantly strive to improve our range with great innovation and feature benefits for you as our customers. If you have any ideas or suggestions to improve our range, please contact us so we can review them at our regular international product meetings. Please forward these to sales@dwights.co.nz

We are proud to offer the "GO Camping" canvas range for Summer 2009/2010. This is the most innovative and strongest range of tents that Dwights has ever offered. We have an option to suit everyone. We are sure you will like what you see, and we look forward to sharing some happy camping memories with you.

DOME TENTS:

Dome tents use a fully waterproof polyester shell as an outer layer. As these are so waterproof, a second “inner layer” is required to facilitate air movement and help avoid condensation. The great advantage of a dome tent is the pack size relative to the amount of tent area you can create.  They are also quite economical and easy to pitch as they utilize lightweight materials. At "GO Camping" we are blurring the lines between the canvas styles and “dome” styles as we blend the features of both. This latest "GO Camping" tent range is certainly the most innovative, progressive and user-friendly range of tents we have offered.

ADVENTURE TENTS:

These tents are designed for active outdoor use when the conditions are not so predictable. They have been designed specifically for strength, compact pack down size and lightweight. This range is designed for backpacking, mountain biking and adventure travel etc.  The adventure models use a strong ripstop polyester fabric for the fly and a super lightweight nylon for the floor. The super strong yet lightweight durallium alloy poles keep the weight down while offering extraordinary strength.
