Guide to Tent Materials
Much like the other aspects of a tent, the material you choose to camp under should be dictated by the kind of camping you plan to do.
Whilst it might not seem too important, the materials used for tents come with their own advantages and disadvantages; some materials are much lighter, some require less maintenance and some are more breathable, so it's well worth knowing the benefits and drawbacks of each.
We’ve taken a look at the three most commonly used materials for tents (excluding groundsheets): cotton, polyester and polycotton.
Take a look at the links below to read up on each material.
