Category: Tents

Kunai™ is the most versatile option on the market for backpacking year-round. It's truly in a category of its own, able to handle everything from hot and humid days in the trees to frigid temps and exposure high in the mountains. If you're outfitting for an adventure that will take you across many landscapes and through a wide range of conditions, there's no better choice. 

The thoughtfully engineered frame design, made with top-shelf DAC Featherlite® NSL poles and featuring an aggressively tapered tent profile, is built to shed wind, rain, and snow. Few tents are as adept in every season with a design this compact and lightweight. The current generation of our Kunai tent is updated with a reshaped entry area, higher volume vestibule, and larger convertible mesh panels on the sides of the inner tent. 


Features

  • Both a backpacking and a mountaineering tent with a uniquely versatile 3/4–season design.
  • A large vestibule with tapered profile complements multiple internal pockets and integrated gear loft for supreme storage, while holding tight in prevailing winds and blowing snow.
  • Breathable wind-blocking ripstop fabric on the inner tent is reinforced with Dimension-Polyant 375D X-Ply™ sailcloth to keep you protected in extreme weather.
  • Pre-bent aluminum DAC Featherlite® NSL poles provide ultralight strength and stability and are color-coded for an intuitive, fast setup.
  • Premium 15D nylon ripstop fly is reinforced with a silicone treatment for increased durability and reliable weather protection.
  • Tub floor construction guarantees a dry tent no matter how wet the ground is.
  • Double-wall construction keeps condensation at bay in humid conditions.
  • Large overhead vent, zippered mesh windows, and strutted vent on the zipper flap allow for plenty of air circulation.
  • Overhead Light Pockets™ use special light-diffusing fabric to cast an even glow throughout the tent when a headlamp is added.
  • Gear pockets at each corner offer both partners ample storage for personal items.
  • Protected by the NEMO Lifetime Warranty.

Isabella ★★★★★

Set it up in under five minutes on a rocky alpine ridgeline, and it handled the wind gusts like a champ. The double zipper access made late-night gear grabs way easier than my old tent. For a true three-season plus occasional snow shelter, this thing packs down tiny.

Leo J. ★★★★★

Took this tent out during a sudden rainstorm and stayed bone dry inside—the four-season build really holds its own. The ventilation was great even on a muggy night in the forest.

Ava K. ★★★★★

I set this up on a rocky ridgeline in strong wind, and the low-profile design handled gusts way better than my old dome tent. The dual-wall construction kept condensation off my bag during a damp night too.
