The tent weighs in at 780-grams thanks to its Dyneema construction that will save ample weight in a pack and also ensure it can withstand even the [harshest conditions](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/gazelle-tents-backcountry-series). The tent comes in at around half the weight as other models on the market, but is rated to deliver even more impressive waterproof capabilities and non-sagging integrity. The Durston Gear X-Dome Pro 1+ tent features enough space for a solo traveler with a comfortable area for sleeping and the right amount of space for gear to maximize shielding from the elements.
