# Ultra-Light Backpacking Tents The SlingFin 2Lite Tent is Built for Advanced Wilderness Excursions By M | Published 2015-09-14 | Art & Design Source: Trend Hunter, https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/backpacking-tent References: [werd](http://www.werd.com/31560/slingfin-2lite-tent/) & [slingfin](http://www.slingfin.com/store/Tents/treeline-tents/2lite) Finding a camping backpacking tent that is built to withstand the climate and environment of an advanced wilderness excursion can be tricky -- especially when looking for a tent that is as portable and light as it is durable. The SlingFin 2Lite Tent is an ideal combination of both with a sleek, simple and lightweight design that is built for withstanding harsh conditions. The SlingFin 2Lite Tent design is specifically made to be a three season tent meaning it can be used in virtually any climate or weather. In addition to the tent being able to accommodate two individuals, the tent can be compressed into a two pound pouch making it ideal to bring on long journeys. Despite it's small size, the tent features walls of 28-sqft making it a luxurious place to camp out in under the stars. ## Trend Insights (Trend Hunter) - Score: 4.0/10 - Popularity: 62% | Activity: 50% | Freshness: 8% - Audience gender: 50% men, 50% women - Primary generations: Millennial, Gen X - Top markets: North America ## Categories [Trend Hunter](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends) > [Art & Design](https://www.trendhunter.com/artdesign) ## Key Themes ### What Makes This Trend Stand Out - **Ultra-light Backpacking Gear:** Opportunities for companies to innovate and create more portable and durable camping equipment for advanced wilderness excursions. - **Three Season Tents:** Development of versatile camping tents that can withstand diverse weather conditions. - **Minimalist Design and Functionality:** Designing camping equipment with a focus on simplicity and functionality for ease of use and transport. ### Sectors Adopting This - **Outdoor Gear and Equipment:** Companies can innovate and create ultra-light and durable backpacking gear for adventurers and hikers. - **Camping and Recreation:** Innovation opportunities exist for manufacturers to create more versatile and minimalistic tents and camping equipment that can withstand harsh environments. - **Travel and Adventure Tourism:** The rise in adventure tourism creates opportunities for companies to design and manufacture more efficient and comfortable camping equipment for travelers seeking an outdoor experience. ## Related on Trend Hunter - [Featherlight Backpacker Tent Designs](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/durston-xmid-2.md) - [Ultralight Camping Tents](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/hyperlite-crosspeak-2-tent.md) - [Ultralight Camping Tents](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/x-dome-1-plus.md) - [Featherlight Camping Tents](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/hyperlite-mountain-gear-mid-1-tent.md) - [Off-Grid Backpacker Tent Designs](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/durston-xdome-2.md) - [Ultralight Four-Season Tents](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/rmr-elite2.md) - [Two-Person Outdoor Technical Tents](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/xdome-2.md) - [Lightweight Suspended Tents](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/suspended-tents.md) - [Featherlight Lay-Flat Camping Hammocks](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/haven-spectre-tent.md)
