Description
The Sea to Summit Ikos Evo is a freestanding basecamp tent using the same Tension Ridge architecture as the Telos Evo for extra headroom, but built with tougher 68D polyester fabric and DAC aluminium poles aimed more at durability and basecamp comfort than minimal weight - packaged weight for the two-person version is 2446 g, roughly 870 g more than the backpacking-focused Telos Evo. A gear loft and a footprint are both included, so you're not buying an extra groundsheet or overhead storage separately.
The 3-season rating means it's built for spring-to-autumn use, not sustained winter snow load. At nearly 2.5 kg, it's not a pack for fast-and-light backpacking; it suits car camping, basecamp setups, or short approaches where the extra fabric durability and included footprint matter more than shaving grams. It's offered in TR2, TR3, and TR4 sizes, so it scales up for a family or a small group sharing a basecamp rather than staying limited to two people.
