Description
Building on the design advances made in our award-winning ultralight Telos Tension Ridge tents, Sea to Summit introduces the Ikos TR 3 Tent, which offers the same great liveability and versatile setup options for comfort-oriented backpacking and vehicle-supported camping. The Ikos features typical Sea to Summit material quality and attention to detail. Four inner pockets and two gear lofts provide plenty of storage space, while machined-aluminium pole feet/rainfly C-clips make picthing easy. A DAC MX poleset supports a 68D polyester ripstop rainfly that is flame retardant-free and treated with a C0 non-PFC DWR. The rectangular floor (large enough for three regular rectangular sleeping mats) is a 68D polyester with a 4,000mm hydrostatic head; a footprint which extends to the tips of the vestibules is available. Spread out in this amazingly spacious home away from home.
Technical Features
The poles of the Tension Ridge are swept upwards like the dihedral wing of an airplane – not angled downwards as is common in tents. This raises the tent’s shape, providing significantly more head and shoulder room, higher doors, easier access and more usable vestibule space.
Ultra-Dry Down is a non-PFC treatment hydrophobic treatment applied to the down during down processing. It is not a coating (which would reduce the ability of the down to loft), it comprises of very small particles of a polymer that cause the down clusters / feathers to repel water. Hydrophobic down is not waterproof; but it absorbs less water than untreated down and dries much more quickly.
Ultra-Dry Down does not affect the loft or lifespan of the down, or its breathability. The treatment will last through at least 20 washings.

Frequently Asked questions
Do you treat the tents with flame retardants / PFCs?
The Ikos tents are 100% free from flame retardants, and the DWR finish used on the rainfly is PFC-free.
Do I need to use a footprint with the Ikos tent?
Ikos tents use a really high quality 4,000mm Hydrostatic head 68D floor fabric. A footprint is not essential for abrasion/water protection - but will extend the life of the tent floor (plus, a footprint is much easier to clean).
