PRAGMA BREADBOARD/KNIFE SET BY VALENTIN BUSSARD

Triangular: Pragma Breadboard/Knife Set by Valentin Bussard echoes the serrated edge-forming triangles laser cut into the sheet steel of the bread knife blade, through the entire minimal, practical, integrated knife-board pairing (the board's triangular ridges make crumb-catching easy!).

EXTRA STRONG PEGS

Much stronger than normal tent pegs, FieldCandy pegs are made from Hi-Tensile Steel, extra strong so they will not bend even when putting them into very hard ground.

poles

EASY SET UP POLES

High quality, high strength, low weight precision engineered Aluminum Alloy poles in silver.
You will be amazed how quick and easy it is to set up the tent poles. Hold each pole at one end, give a little 'wiggle' and they slot together all by themselves. Very clever. They are environmentally friendlier, stronger and lighter than standard poles.

BREATHABLE INNER TENT

When you breath you create moisture, most modern day tents are made from plastic so there is nowhere for that moisture to go - result misery. FieldCandy's inner tent is breathable - result, a dry and comfortable nights sleep.

SPACIOUS SLEEPING AREA

Larger than other two person tents, the light interior creates a sleep-inducing environment for a more comfortable night. With a mesh window for ventilation and increased light, along with a lantern hanging point for those dark cosy evenings!
Safe as well, your inner tent is fire retardant to EU and US standard CPAI-84, but please always make sure that all cooking, fire lighting, smoking etc. takes place a safe distance away.
pockets

LOCKABLE STORAGE POCKETS

No tent can be 100% secure, but most thieves are opportunists - so reduce the risk with your valuables by locking them away in the pockets that lock with the combination padlocks provided in the optional accessory pack.
There’s see-through storage pockets and a mobile phone / MP3 pocket, for all those important bits and pieces.

What a Melon Tent

Most campers avoid leaving food outside out of fear that it'll attract bears. The most adventurous campers, however, dare the bears to pay a visit by putting a photo of food right on their tent. At least you'll have no trouble finding your What a Melon Tent ($659) in a crowded campground. If the bright design isn't obvious enough, just follow the trail of ants.
