Upgrade your home away from home with the Darche 1535 Roof Top Tent, the answer to all your future road trips and adventures for you and your family. This lightweight roof top tent has a strong, low profile aluminium shell and packs down to a tiny 180mm thickness. It's made from durable 180gsm ripstop polycotton canvas with an oversized 420D polyester oxford fly and fine mesh windows to keep the breeze in and the bugs out!
You’ll be sleeping in comfort under the stars thanks to the 50mm high density foam mattress, the full-width sky window, and the nearly 1.5m internal width that allows you to properly stretch out. The extendable internal hoops increase interior volume and the side opening design gives even more space compared to traditional clamshell roof top tents. When it starts to get dark, the built-in LED lighting gives you plenty of light to enjoy your night in the great outdoors.
Other features include air vents to reduce condensation while the tent is closed and an anti-condensation mat under the mattress as well as plenty of internal pockets and hooks for storage and shoe bags to keep your muddy boots out of the tent. It comes with a 2.3m aluminium telescopic ladder that suits most vehicle heights and can be packed away inside the tent along with some light bedding when it's time to get back on the road. So, next time you’re heading off the beaten track or off on a touring adventure, get kitted out with a Darche Buffalo 1535 Roof Top Tent.
