Made from a light yet robust material, the Svalbard 1 Footprint is the correct size and with the correct fixings for easy convenient use.
Nordisk says:
Take your Svalbard 1 to the next level with a taylormade footprint.
Not only does a footprint protect your tent, adding years to its durability, it also converts a dirty outside area to a proper storage area, by providing a clean and waterproof floor.
Another underrated feature of a footprint is directing the moist from the ground to go around your flysheet. This removes 90% of condensation from the inside of your sleeping cabin, leaving you with a dry and comfortable indoor climate, no matter the conditions outside.
Our Verdict
Modern tents are designed to be used quite successfully without a footprint; however, Using a footprint makes your tent floor last a lot longer than not using one, so if you wish to actively extend the life of your tent and don't mind the extra weight we recommend using them, especially if you are unsure of the terrain you may be encountering.
