NEMO Hornet OSMO Tent

While it is an ultralight shelter, the Hornet OSMO uses a unique Flybar clip system that pulls the canopy outward to maximize headroom. You will find it surprisingly roomy for sitting up and changing, though it is still a compact, single-person tent designed for weight savings.

The OSMO fabric is a proprietary blend of recycled nylon and polyester that resists stretching when wet. This means the tent stays taut and maintains its structural integrity during rainstorms, unlike some traditional nylon fabrics that can sag.

No, the Hornet OSMO is strictly a three-season tent. It features significant mesh paneling for ventilation, which is ideal for spring, summer, and fall, but it will not provide the warmth or snow-loading capabilities required for winter conditions.

These are specialized pockets located near the ceiling of the tent designed to hold your headlamp. The fabric is engineered to diffuse the light, turning your headlamp into a soft, ambient lantern that illuminates the entire interior without harsh glare.

It comes with a Divvy Cube stuff sack, which is designed to make packing easier than a standard compression sack. The rectangular shape fits more efficiently into a backpack, and you can split the tent components between two people if you are hiking with a partner.

While not strictly required, using a footprint is highly recommended to protect the floor fabric from abrasion and punctures. The floor is made of lightweight materials to save weight, so a footprint will significantly extend the lifespan of your tent.
