An NON WATERPROOF hex tarp aimed at getting out of the sun but without any of the clamminess you'd get from a waterproof tarp increasing humidity on hot days. I've made these before from plain cotton and they're lovely to be under but this is the first with wool, cotton and a bit of poly to give stretch and slightly see through.

I've made hundreds of hex tarps in waxed cotton and silicone nylon and this is the ideal shape for quick pitches between trees, cars etc or pitched over camp kitchens relaxing areas or tover ents to create a second roof (dramatically reduces temps in the tent)

Our slightly experimental tarp is a more refined aesthetic with no messy bartacks, sloppy synthetic reinforcements and zero corners cut. This makes a tarp that looks clean and elegant while staying strong, reliable and oh so pretty. Perfect for staying out of the sun and luscious Instagram pictures

The 3.7 m ridgeline and 4m wide in size with catenary cut sides. Corner and side tie outs are 2.5mm leather with strong 5mm coated steel D rings, ridgeline tie outs are 4-6mm leather so they're easy to find and give a stronger pitch All leather used is genuine vegetable tan and will patina / scratch up with age.

 

Weight is 3kg

 

We've added stitching and reinforcement with riveted construction producing an even stronger and more stable tarp compared to our competitors. Heavy woven fabric and leather construction meaning that the plastic sound of a nylon tarp in the wind and rain is avoided and instead you get a calming outdoor experience, great shade and muted calming tones.
