Premium tents: Floor attached or not?

Hi Tim,

1. There is a ground sheet sewn into the rain fly and then
2. there are separate sleeping pods that also have their own floor sewn into them that you then 
3. attach inside the rainfly giving you 2 separate layers of water proof flooring in each sleeping area

Hope that helps!


Best Regards,
Andrew

I am trying to decide between the Icarus Utah and Oberon tents. The description of the Icarus says the the floor of the rain fly is removable, but the blog states that, for premium tents, the rain fly and ground sheet are sewn together. Can you clarify?

(1) Con-Struct (TM) Super-lite tent poles:
  • High tensile modular poles designed to give maximum support
  • Roof pitch: prevents water pooling on top of tent by guiding it down and way from the roof
  • Pole sleeves give tent fuller assemble shape to maximize room size
(2) Exo-derm (TM) rain fly:
  • Fabric specially designed for CEC
  • Does not stretch or sag like nylon when wet - tent retains shape in heavy downpour
  • Weatherproof: Coated with a Polyurethane film rated at 3000mm
  • Seam sealed to prevent water penetration
(3) Storm flap: channels water away from the tent

(4) Dyna-strap (TM) webbing: bigger and stronger than conventional guy lines, fitted at peak of pole arc to provide maximum tension, help stabilize tent and maintain structure, especially in strong winds

(5) Mesh vents: top and opposite ends of tent allow for greater air circulation reducing internal condensation and regulating heat exchange while keeping out bugs and rain

(6) Doors: full mesh fabric for air circulation with secondary weather proof full fabric doors for privacy

(7) Guy lines: high tensile nylon woven with 3M reflective taping for greater visibility in low light conditions

(8) Inner tent:
  • Breathable polyester with mesh vents help regulate air flow
  • Partition walls: removable to create larger single sleeping pod or as a room divider for added privacy
  • Dri-tek (TM) floor: Fully sewn in tub style floor
  • Heat sealed, prevents moisture penetration, abraision resistant
(9) Talon tent stakes (TM): high impact resistant ABS tent stakes firmly hold down corners and webbing support straps - yet many times lighter than conventional steel stakes

*Please note not all tents in this range include all of the features listed above.
