PEAX Solitude 1 Footprint
- In stock, ready to ship
Most footprints are nothing more than a glorified ground tarp—flat, flimsy, and doing little to help you once the weather turns ugly. The PEAX Solitude 1P Footprint is built different. Its bathtub-style floor features raised sidewalls that block wind and divert it up away from you. This encourages healthy airflow by reducing convective cooling aka the wind robbing warmth by cutting through your sleeping bag. Allowing you to stay and sleep warmer. These raised side walls also encourage good air circulation which cuts down on condensation build up so your tent stays dryer on the inside.
This footprint is a weather barrier, a warmth booster, and a smart upgrade for hunters who actually use their gear in real mountain conditions.
