A popular replacement for the original Habitat, the NX3 (the third generation) is slightly larger and offers a nice balance of helf mesh inner.
This keeps out the drafts, but allows ventilation to flow, which means the tent can be used across all seasons.
An excellent all round roomy 2 person shelter and very popular with the cycle touring community.
