MSR Freelite 3 V3 Ultralight Backpacking Tent

About the MSR Freelite 3 V3

The MSR (Mountain Safety Research) FreeLite 3 V3 tent returns with an updated design that’s 255g lighter than the previous FreeLites making it ideal for fast-moving outdoor adventures.

The new FreeLite series features a weight-saving cutaway rainfly while vestibule doors use StayDry™ rain gutters to keep water from dripping onto you and your gear. The FreeLite retains its true rectangular floor (no foot taper like most other tents) with one meter of headroom – 10.2 cm more than before. A micromesh canopy delivers maximum ventilation, moisture control, and insect protection while a waterproof bathtub-style floor protects from the elements.

Two entrances and a vestibule on either side offer hassle-free access and room for stowing equipment. The doors feature new zippers that are more durable and easy to use with one hand that also zip closed to a single point so you always know where to open the door, even in the dark.

The FreeLite features a semi-freestanding design that is quick and easy to pitch in time-sensitive situations. DAC NFL poles are super strong yet keep the pack weight low. The rainfly uses an ultralight 15D ripstop nylon construction with DuraShield™ PU/silicone waterproof coating and taped seams to keep rainwater at bay. The versatile design means you can leave off the rainfly in good weather for a stargazer’s view of the night sky.

Inside, new tech-friendly pockets feature cable ports for routing headphone and charging cords. Overhead gear loft pockets are perfect for headlamps and keeping smaller essentials within easy reach.

The FreeLite 3 V3 from MSR packs a low weight with a 3-season design that won’t let you down when the weather does. A great 3-person camping shelter for all outdoor adventures, offering liveable comfort in the harshest of conditions.
