MSR Introduces The Hubba Hubba HD Tent
The Hubba Hubba tent from MSR has gone through quite a few transitions over the years. Each one usually shaves off some weight to make it even more packable for your long adventures ahead. This time however, MSR has focused on enhanced durability with the brand new Hubba Hubba HD (Heavy Duty Edition) which is coming out in the Spring of 2026.
Built to handle harsher conditions, the Hubba Hubba HD Tent helps retain warmth in cooler, inclement weather using less mesh, while still allowing for airflow through updated vents that reduce condensation buildup inside the tent. The redesigned interior offers increased volume, providing ample space to move, rest, and wait out storms in comfort. With larger vestibules for storing wet gear, additional pockets, and an integrated clothesline, the HD model makes life inside the tent more livable than ever.
Everything has been tweaked to increase waterproof performance and extend the tent’s lifespan in the field. Straight-door zippers have been added for easier nighttime access and long-term durability. Stability is also improved, thanks to extra guy lines, which are cords that stabilize your tent in heavy winds and minimize leakage by keeping the rainfly away from the tent body, and included MSR Mini-Groundhog™ stakes.

“The Hubba Hubba HD Tent was born from listening to our community of backpackers who asked for a tougher, more weather-ready tent that doesn’t compromise on comfort. With this tent, we’ve taken the proven performance of the Hubba series and added more durability, more protection, and more thoughtful features to help people stay out longer and go further.””
The MSR Hubba Hubba HD Tent will initially be available exclusively through the MSR website, followed by US and Canadian retailers starting in spring 2026.
