Ultralight and Spacious Tent Design

The X-Mid Pro 2+ is the ideal tent for duos who want a superlight yet stormworthy backcountry palace. It expands the award winning X-Mid Pro design into a larger 2+ size that is the world's lightest tent that can accommodate two wide rectangular pads (as little as 19.4 oz / 550 g). More than just an amazingly light and spacious tent, the X-Mid Pro 2+ is also impressively capable thanks to the X-Mid geometry and Dyneema® composite fabrics (DCF) which are more weight efficient to provide greater stormworthiness while retaining the simplicity, user friendliness and build quality the X-Mid tents are revered for.

SPACIOUS

The X-Mid Pro 2+ takes the X-Mid geometry (which naturally boosts interior volume) into a larger form factor to create an oversized 2P tent that is palatial for two people.

Compared to the regular X-Mid Pro 2, the floor width has been widened from 46" to 52" (1.32m) to accommodate all wide (25") pads including being able to fit dual wide rectangular pads. The already excellent headroom has been increased further with a taller 49" (1.24 m) peak height, which also steepens the end walls to increase the useable length for hikers up to 6'6".

Best of all, the angle of the diagonal ridgeline has been lessened to create more similar headroom on both sides and further optimize the tent for two people sleeping in the same direction. The X-Mid Pro 2+ has substantially more headroom on both sides compared to a competing A-frame style tents.

What hasn't changed are the dual generous vestibules, which are large (11.6 sq ft x 2) and conveniently place the main area beside the door instead of blocking it.

STORMWORTHY

The X-Mid Pro 2+ provides the excellent stormworthiness the X-Mid tents are highly regarded for. It combines ultra strong Dyneema composite fabric with an ideal shape for handling wind and snow loads because the geometry gives all of the panels a consistently moderate slope. There are no horizontal roof panels to catch snow, nor vertical side panels to catch wind. The tent has a robust structure with 2 poles that makes it stronger than similar pyramid style tents, yet still pitches solidly with as few as 4 stakes. In stormy conditions, the tent can be reinforced with peak and side panel guyouts along with up to 8 extra stakes along the base.

More than just capable of surviving high forces, the X-Mid Pro 2+ is designed to provide a more comfortable experience in tough weather. To achieve that it has a long list of protections including protected doorways (to keep rain out), a fly first pitch (to keep the floor dry), a wind stable pitch (not vulnerable to collapse at any steps), and a full coverage fly that extends low to the ground (blocks drafts, spindrift, and rain splatter) yet can be lifted higher for increased ventilation. The X-Mid Pro 2+ further makes rough conditions more liveable with its spacious interior, large practical vestibules for storing wet gear, and dual peak vents that minimize condensation.

USER FRIENDLY

The X-Mid Pro 2+ has a focus on simplicity and ease of use because when conditions are tough you want a tent that works effortlessly.

Most notably, the X-Mid Pro 2+ has the same simple pitch the X-Mid tents are highly regarded for. The rectangular base is intuitive to stake out and the tent can be pitched with as few as 4 stakes. There are no odd angles or distances to estimate, no struts to complicate the process, and no need to measure the pole heights because the fly will naturally limit them to the correct height.

Once pitched, the ease-of-use continues with magnetic door toggles on the fly, along with magnetic door toggles on the inner doors (an industry first). Entry is easy with large doorways that are not blocked by trekking poles (like most competing tents). Instead, the X-Mid puts the vestibules beside the door in an easy to reach spot which also creates a shorter reach to close the fly. The X-Mid Pro 2+ also provides a tensioned floor that lies taut and wrinkle free, dual doorways, dual vestibules, and premium zippers that operate one handed.

Dual Magnetic Toggles

Dual magnetic door toggles allow not only the fly doors to be easily secured but also magnetically secure the inner doors (an industry first).

Doorways

Unlike most trekking pole tents, the doorways are large and not blocked by trekking poles.

Full Coverage Fly

The fly extends low to the ground to block drafts and rain splatter, yet can be raised for more ventilation. Other tents cut away the bottom of the fly to save weight but it leaves you more exposed.

Generous Space

A generous 52" wide floor fits two wide rectangular pads, while the larger size and X-Mid geometry give palatial interior volume.

Peak vents

Dual peak vents minimize condensation.

QUALITY

In addition to the highest performance design, the X-Mid Pro has higher quality than any other tent Dyneema Composite Fabric (DCF) tent. We achieve this by starting with premium DCF material and assembling it at the most experienced tent factory in the world for DCF. Our production includes a proprietary pre-shrinking process for DCF so the shape is more stable over time and is resistant to shrinkage that affects other DCF tents. We then join these panels with a hot bonding process. The result is a tent that is stronger than other DCF tents built with sewn or cold tape, and more resistant to shrinkage.

We also go a step further in many other ways including tighter tolerances for panel dimensions than other brands, and a long list of additional requirements and checks. All of this culminates in setting up each tent twice for dual quality inspections before it ships to you. While this premium quality gives the X-Mid Pro a higher cost of production than competing tents, we are able to price it similarly because we sell it to you with only a modest markup.

PATENTED GEOMETRY

The X-Mid shape has been developed from the first principles of geometry to be as weight efficient, user friendly, and functional as possible.

The result is a tent that is a joy to use because it avoids all the common pitfalls of trekking pole shelters such as a complicated pitch, mandatory guylines, numerous required stakes, poles blocking the doorways, struts that make it awkward to pack up, vestibules that put the main area in front of the door, and an awkwardly long reach to close the fly doors.

The palatial X-Mid Pro 2+ is the world's lightest tent that can accommodate two wide rectangular pads, while also being highly stormworthy and user friendly. It is the ideal tent for everything from a thru hike of National Scenic Trail to a traverse of Alaska's Brooks Range.

A TENT FOR 2

THE X-MID IS A GREAT DESIGN AND THE 2+ REALLY IS LARGE ENOUGH FOR 2. I’ve only set it up in my yard and the quality of construction is excellent. The features are exactly what a hiker/camper needs. A lot of thought went into this product and I for one am thrilled to have one. Come the 2024 hiking season in northern MN it will be used a lot.

I’ve had a few nights in this so far. 25” Pads fit. Quality is top notch. Good to have gear pockets but they are a bit high. Magnets on door clasps are strong and work great. Easy to pitch, as long as you’re on relatively flat ground. I really miss having a small loop to hang my light. I bought a dyneema stick-on loop from ZPacks and mounted that inside close one of the poles.

Looks good so far

Haven’t had a chance to field test it. I set it up on the lawn and it looks great! I was in between the Silnylon and Dyneema floor and decided to keep the dyneema.

Two wide pads in a tent that's 550g? Wow.

This tent is absolutely amazing. With the obvious fact that it can comfortably fit two wide pads aside, the Pro2+ has all the features we've come to know and love from all the other X-Mids, while somehow managing to tack on even more things (thanks for listening to the people Dan!). Double (and stronger!) magnetic tie outs for both the vestible and mesh doors, DCF floor (no more squeaking with any of my pads), longer guylines for little rock big rock attachments...the list goes on!

In regards to space, I, 6ft3, can comfortably fit on the long side the tent with a comfortable amount of space to spare at both the head and foot end of the box. If you're my height, or taller, then you know the search for a singlewall shelter you can fit comfortably in (without soaking in your footbox) is quite the struggle. My missus, who's 175cm can fit extremely comfortably next to me with both our heads on the same side (no one needs to smell each This thing is freaking palatial, we'd have no problems waiting out a storm in this house of a tent.
