Durston Gear X-Mid Pro 2 (DCF Floor)

The Durston X-Mid Pro 2 (DCF Floor) is a 2-person single-wall pyramid (tipi-style) tent that pitches on two trekking poles, eliminating the need to carry dedicated tent poles. Both fly and floor are built entirely from Dyneema Composite Fabric (DCF), bringing minimum weight down to 509 g and complete trail weight, including stakes and guylines, to 543 g — placing it among the lightest 2-person shelters in the ultralight category. A 2.7 m² floor plus two vestibules totaling 2 m² (a 74% vestibule ratio) give two occupants and their gear reasonable room, though floor area per person (1.35 m²) stays tight for extended foul-weather stays. The seam-free construction reduces the number of potential leak points, and two peak vents assist airflow. Pitching requires just four stakes and two trekking poles, which aren't included. This tent targets thru-hikers and ultralight backpackers willing to pay DCF's premium to keep a 2-person shelter under 550 g — not a casual car-camping tent, but a specialized tool for minimizing carried volume on long trails.
