ProLite Gear

An innovative, ultra-lite 4-season pyramid-style backcountry shelter that delivers serious weather protection and unparalleled space-to-weight ratio with superb durability. Pitch this ultra-lite design with your trekking poles, over paddles or ski poles, or hang it from branches via its top loops. The Shangri-La 1 can be used by itself, with the Shangri-La 1 Floor, or with the Shangri-La 1 Nest inner bug tent. The reflective stake out loops keep you from tripping in the middle of the night and the hydrophilic thread at the seams expand when wet—sealing the seams and eliminating the need for liquid sealant.
