The Muddus is a highly practical, highly versatile blend of old school simplicity and new school modular design.
It is also highly popular with users who do multiple activities, year round, since it can be used as, say, a lightweight tarp on a backpacking trip, as a full tent on a paddle touring excursion or a long ski tour, and somewhere between the two on a weekend bicycle jaunt.
The Muddus’ ventilation works in all conditions, since both the inner tent fabric is highly breathable yet water repellent, and the inner tent doors have full no-see-um mesh panels covered with equal sized, zipper-adjustable fabric panels.
