Designed for NZ’s toughest conditions, the Orson Alpha 2 Tent is built to best handle some of NZ's worst weather. Part of Orson's Adventure Series, the Alpha 2 is made for year-round use with superior materials and componentry. The design provides room for two adventurers, it's quick and easy to pitch in bad weather, and features an external reinforced three pole structure and multiple ventilation options.

Feedback and research revealed that many ultralight tent imports focus on ultralight weight, which means they are using ultralight materials, specifications and designs that are often less durable and aren't suitable for our environment. Our intention with the Alpha 2 was to make a true 4 season tent with a priority on performance and durability, specifically designed to perform in New Zealand's often unforgiving conditions.
