Our take on the The One

The One is a single-walled ultralight tent pitched with trekking poles instead of a dedicated frame. It is built for backpackers who count grams and want a simple, fast shelter for one. Against rivals like the Zpacks Plexamid or Gossamer Gear The One, it trades some weather protection and condensation control for low weight and a small packed size. Owners like the easy pitch and room for one, but single-wall designs like this one collect condensation in humid or cold conditions.

Questions and answers

Does The One come with poles?
No. It is pitched with trekking poles, which you supply. You need two adjustable poles set to the length the tent specifies.
Is it a single-wall or double-wall tent?
It is a single-walled tent. That keeps the weight down but means condensation can form on the inside of the canopy.
How many people does it sleep?
It is a one-person tent. It fits one sleeper with a sleeping pad and a modest amount of gear.
Can it handle rain and wind?
It is a three-season shelter. It sheds rain and moderate wind when pitched taut, but it is not a four-season or expedition tent.
How does it compare with a double-wall tent?
It is lighter and packs smaller than most double-wall tents, but it offers less condensation control and less insulation.
Is it worth it over a tarp?
It gives you an enclosed, bug-proof shelter with a floor, which a plain tarp does not. If you want full enclosure at low weight, it is a reasonable step up.
Where is the The One cheapest?
At Gossamer Gear, for $315.00, as of our latest check.
