Durston X-Mid Pro 2+
The X-Mid Pro 2+ is the ultimate tent for backpackers seeking an ultralight yet weather-resistant shelter. Expanding upon the award-winning X-Mid Pro design, this tent increases in size to a spacious 2+ capacity while maintaining an impressively low weight of just 610 g. It is the world’s lightest tent capable of accommodating two wide sleeping pads. Combining its exceptional weight-to-space ratio with high-performance Dyneema® Composite Fabric (DCF) and innovative X-Mid geometry, the X-Mid Pro 2+ delivers outstanding weather protection, simplicity, and ease of use.
Spacious and Ultralight Design
The X-Mid geometry is engineered to maximize weight efficiency, usability, and functionality. The X-Mid Pro 2+ expands on this innovative design, offering a luxuriously spacious two-person ultralight tent optimized for parallel sleeping arrangements. Compared to the standard X-Mid Pro 2, the floor width has been increased to 132 cm, ensuring ample room for two 64 cm-wide sleeping pads. The peak height of 124 cm enhances livability and accommodates hikers up to 198 cm tall.
The tent also retains its two generously sized vestibules, providing ample storage space for large backpacks. Unlike many ultralight tents, the storage areas are positioned beside the doorways rather than in front, allowing for unobstructed entry and exit.
Exceptional Weather Protection
The X-Mid Pro 2+ is built to withstand harsh weather conditions. The Dyneema Composite Fabric, combined with the storm-resistant X-Mid geometry, ensures superior resilience against strong winds and snow loads. The tent features no horizontal roof panels that could accumulate snow and no vertical sidewalls that would catch the wind.
Its robust structure maintains stability in storms with just four stakes, while additional stake-out points allow for reinforcement with up to 12 stakes in extreme conditions. Covered entryways prevent rain from entering, and the full-coverage fly extends low to minimize drafts and water splashes.
User-Friendly Setup and Features
Designed with simplicity in mind, the X-Mid Pro 2+ is incredibly easy to pitch. Its rectangular base eliminates guesswork, enabling a fast and intuitive setup with just four stakes—no complex angles or precise measurements required.
Once pitched, the tent’s usability continues to shine with features such as magnetic door toggles, large entryways, and unobstructed access. The taut, wrinkle-free floor, dual doors, dual vestibules, and high-quality YKK zippers provide seamless operation with one-handed use.
Premium Construction and Quality
Manufactured in the world’s most experienced Dyneema tent facility, the X-Mid Pro 2+ features hot-bonded seams for superior durability compared to conventional cold taping or stitching. The Dyneema fabric undergoes pre-treatment to prevent shrinkage, ensuring long-term structural integrity.
Each tent is produced with strict quality standards, including precise panel measurements, additional inspections, and a dual-pitching process before shipment to ensure reliability right out of the box.
