Durston X-Mid 2

The pinnacle of ultralight tents.

Designed from the ground up, the X-Mid 2 is engineered to be lightweight, simple, and weather-resistant. Its innovative, patented design offers exceptional protection, spaciousness, and ease of use—all at minimal weight. At just 880 grams, no other tent delivers this level of space and shelter, making the X-Mid 2 one of the most sought-after ultralight tents for demanding backpacking trips.

Durston constructs its tents using premium materials and top-tier manufacturing techniques, including double stitching, reinforced seams, and strategic reinforcement in high-stress areas.

Wind-Resistant Design

Many ultralight tents achieve their low weight by reducing size and sacrificing comfort or weather resistance. The X-Mid 2, however, remains exceptionally lightweight due to its efficient structure, utilizing trekking poles instead of traditional tent poles—resulting in a lighter yet stronger build. The optimized geometry maximizes interior space without excess fabric, maintaining its ultralight weight while offering outstanding weather protection.

Key features enhancing the X-Mid 2’s weather resistance include:

  • Double-wall construction
  • A rainfly that extends low to block wind and splashback
  • Fly-first setup to keep the inner tent dry in rain
  • Polyester fabric that doesn’t stretch or sag like nylon
  • Durable waterproof coatings and factory-sealed seams
  • Protected doorways to keep rain out, even when open

Easy Setup & User-Friendly Design

In challenging conditions, a hassle-free tent makes all the difference. The X-Mid 2 is designed for simplicity and efficiency, ensuring quick and effortless setup.

With just four required stakes and no need for precise angles or extra guylines, pitching the tent is straightforward. Large doorways remain unobstructed by trekking poles, while spacious vestibules provide ample gear storage without blocking entry. Thoughtful details like magnetic door toggles and internal storage pockets enhance usability.

A compact packed size makes it easy to carry in any backpack. Additionally, the polyester fabric doesn’t absorb water like nylon, keeping the tent lighter, drying faster, and maintaining tension without constant adjustments.

Spacious Interior — Even for Taller Users

The patented design maximizes space with a unique dual-diagonal layout that separates the floor and roof on different axes. This eliminates wasted fabric and structural obstructions, resulting in an incredibly efficient use of space.

With a 132 cm wide and 234 cm long floor, the tent comfortably fits two people and is ideal for users up to 193 cm tall. Two large vestibules provide additional gear storage without restricting access to the doors.

Patented Geometry

The X-Mid design is based on fundamental geometric principles to create the lightest, simplest, and most functional trekking pole tent possible. It avoids common pitfalls of other trekking pole tents, such as complex setups, required guylines, trekking pole obstructed doors, and cramped interiors.

The X-Mid 2 is a perfectly balanced ultralight tent that combines space, simplicity, and weather resistance—ideal for long-distance treks and demanding backcountry adventures.
