Sierra Designs

Sierra Designs tents and sleeping bags have been keeping people comfortable in bad weather since 1965, and this is the full UK range. Lightweight backpacking shelters, DriDown bags built to stay lofted when the air is damp, and the footprints to go under them.

The tent line splits fairly neatly by what you are carrying it for. The High Side and High Route 3000 are solo shelters for fast, light nights out where every gram counts. The Meteor 3000 comes in 2, 3 and 4 person versions and is the one to look at for a proper backpacking trip with a mate or the family, with two doors so nobody has to climb over anybody at 2am. The Clip Flashlight 3000 remains a classic ridge-line design that pitches in minutes. All the 3000-series shelters carry a 3000mm hydrostatic head, which is the number that matters when it rains sideways on a Snowdonia campsite.

On the sleeping side, DriDown is the reason people come back to Sierra Designs. It is down treated to resist moisture, so it keeps its loft in a condensation-heavy tent rather than going flat and cold. The Nitro range (0, 20 and 35) covers everything from winter to summer, the Backcountry Bed drops the zip for a duvet-style feel, and the Frontcountry Bed Queen is a two-person option for car camping. Sizing runs Regular and Long, so check your height before ordering.

Pair a tent with the matching footprint to protect the floor, and see the full Tents & Accessories range or browse all Sleeping Bags. A sleeping mat does more for warmth than most people expect.
