Description

The Liteway Illusion Duo Tent (2024) is a single-wall pyramid shelter for two people, pitched with trekking poles instead of dedicated tent poles. Minimum trail weight is 825 g, with the complete package including stakes and accessories at 895 g – a very low figure for a 2-person tent, working out to under 450 g per person. A 2.76 m² floor and two separate vestibules totaling 1.64 m² mean two people aren't stepping over each other's quilts and each gets their own entrance plus space for boots and a pack – a vestibule-to-floor ratio over 55% is above average for the category. Apex venting helps clear condensation from breath, which matters on a single-wall Silpoly 20D shelter prone to interior moisture. Seams aren't factory-sealed and need to be treated with silicone by the user before first use, a common requirement on ultralight tents but one that takes extra time before a first trip. Given its trekking-pole setup and low weight, this tent targets thru-hiking, bikepacking, and light backpacking in 3-season conditions rather than winter or high-wind use.
