MSR Announces New Habiscape Tents For Families
MSR has announced a new series of tents for families or small groups which will debut in 2023. The Habiscape tent series will come in 4-person and 6-person sizes and is aimed at convenience, livability, and luxury.
“MSR has a long history of solving problems for the most serious of outdoor adventurers. With the Habiscape series, we applied our problem-solving skills to the family camping environment and are very pleased with the outcome. The Habiscape’s intuitive setup, livable space, and creative pocketing solutions eliminate a lot of the frustrations that keep families from maximizing their time doing what is most important: enjoying the outdoors together.”
Designed for adventurous families and groups, the MSR Habiscape tent is the ideal blend of performance, space, and features. The Habiscape has a symmetrical design making pole placement and setup intuitive and easy. It also includes thoughtful features like the Pass-Thru Pocket, accessible from inside and outside the tent but impervious to bugs, and a storage bag that becomes a hanging pocket. With 10 total pockets, ceiling loops for hanging accessories and lights, wide door openings, and generous headroom, this innovative frontcountry shelter truly hits the sweet spot of price and quality that outdoorsy parents and basecamp groups are sure to love.
The Habiscape joins MSR’s frontcountry line of tents alongside the Habitude™ 4 and 6 Family and Group Tent Series. At a higher price point, the Habitude will remain the sturdiest, most wind resistant option for families and groups thanks to its extremely robust pole structure. However, families and groups interested in more living space and extra features will be impressed by the Habiscape. In addition to the features listed above, the Habiscape’s rainfly can be used as a sun shade or a storm entrance and features a double door for easy access. The 4-person version will weigh in at 12 pounds and have an interior height of 73 inches, with 62.5 square feet of livable space plus an additional 23.5 vestibule square footage. The 6-person version will weigh in at 13 pounds and 9 ounces with a 77-inch interior height and 83 square feet of living space plus a 24.5 square foot vestibule.
The Habiscape tent series (MSRP: $499.95-$599.95 USD) will launch to the public starting in spring 2023.
