Mini tarp is convenient camping shed for time travelers and more. Small size and low weight make it handy for soldiers and anyone who likes hiking.

Size (flat) 1.5 m by 2.5 m, weight 2 kg. Standard made of proven, durable and very popular fabric – fustain, that will not soak through.

Fustain is cotton-linen fabric with a weight of 450 gr / m2 and a width of about 150 cm. In standard it comes in natural colour.

Our fustain style fabric has a weft which is linen and cotton warp.

Our fustain is a proven fabric, produced in Europe.

It retains water well and is durable, which is why such fustain  is used in the production of special clothing, tents. Therefore it works very well for mini tarp .

In addition, it is suitable for making backpacks, curtains or durable bags.

Historically, fustain fabric has been produced and used in Europe since the early Middle Ages. It should be remembered that there were and there are many types of fustain.

Sometimes it was a fluffy fabric on one or two sides, and sometimes a smooth fabric.

Contrary to popular belief, cotton (as a raw material) is not so unhistorical, or, as some say, dark. As it seems to some people.

Such fustain will find use in reenactors from the 11th to the 17th century. For Slavs and Vikings, purely woolen and linen fabrics will still be irreplaceable and safer (in the mental sense) to use.

A mini tarp, for which we provide 25 metres of hemp rope and a transport cover.
