Its innovative and patented geometry makes the X-Mid 2 exceptionally stormworthy, spacious, and simple at the lowest weight. No other tent offers this level of space and protection for just 1.9 lbs (890 g \/ 31 oz), which is why the X-Mid 2 has become one of the most popular tents on demanding trails and one of the most highly awarded tents in recent years including top awards from BackpackingLight, The Trek, and Section Hiker.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eFeatures\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cdiv\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eOptimal Geometry\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv\u003ePatented X-Mid geometry with twin offset poles provides best in class headroom, living space, stormworthiness, and ease of pitching.\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv\u003e \u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eSpacious\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv\u003eThe diagonal (offset pole) ridgeline increases headroom and interior volume by 15-35% compared to similar shelters.\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv\u003e \u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eNon Sag Fabric\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv\u003eThe X-Mid has been a pioneer of lightweight polyester fabric because it doesn't absorb water and sag like nylon, so the shelter retains its structural integrity in wet conditions. Our passionate advocacy for polyester was initially met with resistance from many established companies using nylon, but has since led to polyester becoming widely recognized as a superior material and with many competitors now following our lead.\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv\u003e \u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eStormworthy Shape\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv\u003eThe X-Mid shape provides consistently moderate panel slopes that balance wind and snow shedding to provide excellent all around performance.
