Sea To Summit Ikos TR3 tent 2025
The Ikos tents build on the design advances made in the award-winning ultralight Telos Tension Ridge tents. They feature the same great livability and versatile setup options for everyday backpacking and vehicle-supported camping in a larger, more comfort-oriented format. Four inner pockets and a gear loft provide plenty of space for your gear, and the rectangular tub floor offers room for two regular rectangular sleeping pads in the TR2 or room for three regular rectangular sleeping pads in the TR3. Sea to Summit material quality and attention to detail complete the package. The floor is a 68D polyester with a 4,000mm hydrostatic head, and a footprint which extends to the tips of the vestibules is available. A DAC MX poleset supports an 1800mm 68D polyester ripstop rainfly that is flame retardant-free and treated with a C0 non-PFC DWR. Machined-aluminum pole feet/rainfly C-clips make pitching easy. If your focus is comfort rather than gram counting, and you're looking for a tent for two or three people ( maybe a dog) that you can count on- the Ikos TR2 and TR3 could be your amazingly spacious home away from home.
Ikos Tent Tension Ridge
The poles of the Tension Ridge™ are swept upwards like the dihedral wing of an airplane – not angled downwards as is common in tents. This raises the tent’s shape, providing significantly more head and shoulder room, higher doors, easier access and more usable vestibule space.
Ikos Poles – DAC MX Poleset
The gold standard in tent poles. Sea to Summit tents use Green Anodized DAC Featherlight NFL, NSL, PRESSFIT segments (Telos and Alto) and the MX poleset (Ikos) for performance and durability. The green anodization process lowers environmental impact and significantly reduces water usage compared to conventional tent pole anodization.
Features
- The unique Tension Ridge maximizes the livable space versus the footprint of the tents, offering a lot more room around the head and shoulders.
- Tension Ridge allows us to place a wide vent at the highest point of the tent, helping minimize condensation build-up. Unlike most vent designs, the Apex Vent doesn’t require a mesh panel to maintain tension across the fly –
- allowing up to 70% better airflow, unrestricted by mesh.
- Control airflow to manage humidity and condensation in wet conditions by opening or closing the Baseline Vents. Face one of the Baseline Vents into the wind for the most effective airflow.
- Multiple configuration options means the tents adapt to the weather or your activity. Enjoy Fly Only Mode, Inner Only Mode, Dry Set-Up, Partial Fly Mode, Classic Mode.
- The unique Quick Connect Foot means in wet weather you can set the fly up first and take it down last to keep your inner dry.
- The inner mesh panels are engineered for maximum airflow while maintaining no-see-um and sandfly insect protection.
