Vango Equinox 450 Footprint Groundsheet

Groundsheets are an essential tent accessory, especially when camping in rougher environments where it is quite easy to get a snag or tear in the tent fabric. Buying a footprint groundsheet is one of the best methods of protecting your tent from damage and ensuring the interior of your tent remains dry. The Vango Equinox 450 footprint groundsheet fits the base measurements of the tent, lightweight and compact making it perfect for backpackers or mountain camping. The benefits of a footprint are:

• Helps mark out a clear position for erecting the tent


• Ensures the tent is kept cleaner when pitching the tent


• Provides additional insulation and waterproofing from damp that can rise upwards from the ground


• Ideal for fully sewn-in groundsheets as they are protected from rough surfaces, stones, etc which will in turn prolong the life of the tent


• Helps to keep the main tent cleaner when packing down as without the footprint, the tent will be wrapped up wet and muddy. Unfortunately this is the perfect breeding ground for mould, which totally ruins further use and enjoyment from your tent


• They can be wrapped up relatively small and then cleaned down and dried when you get home from your camping holiday


• Packaged in a carry bag for neat, compact storage until your next camping holiday
