A footprint might feel like extra weight, but with the right tent, it adds protection, flexibility, and peace of mind.
Nemo says:
This abrasion-resistant footprint is made using 100% recycled bluesign® approved 75D polyester, perfectly sized to fit underneath your tent. Adding this layer of durable, waterproof fabric reduces the wear and tear on your tent floor that can be caused by rough or rocky ground.
Our Verdict
Most manufacturers recommend using a footprint to extend the life of your tent's groundsheet, but if you've just bought an ultralight tent, do you want to carry the extra weight?
We recommend using a footprint if you expect to camp on rough ground, especially with lightweight tents made of fabric. Some footprints have other uses, such as pitching just the flysheet and footprint together as an ultralight shelter, so in this case, the footprint provides you with increased flexibility in your shelters. The footprint also does a great job of keeping the tent's floor clean when your pitch is wet or muddy.
