Petty officer tent XVIII – Cotton

This tent was mainly used by European armies.

The design is affirmed by many written and graphical sources that survived till this day.

In the standard option, the tent is made from natural coloured technical cotton of 300gr/m2 denisty. This fabric, however, will not withstand prolonged rain, recommended for countries with a warm climate. We suggest to order impregnated fabric which has been tested and impregnated by the manufacturer, not by a subcontractor or by hand which will guarantee that the tent is rot resistant and waterproof. We also provide and option to use a colored and impregnated fabric for the tent, in the footer of the shop website you will find a link to the card of available colors. We also paint tents with historical motifs. We also manufacture this model from linien or leather.

The tent is 3m wide, 3m long and 2,2m high. Main masts are made from sturdy wood such as ash or beech. The masts are split into two parts for easier transport, the longest element is 1.3m long.
