The Dare to be Different Daktent 220XL is a soft-top rooftop tent designed to mount on your vehicle, giving you an elevated shelter wherever you roam. Its generous floor space and thoughtful construction make it a solid choice for campers who prefer sleeping off the ground without sacrificing comfort.
This tent’s 400 g canvas body and 420D polyester Oxford fly-top both feature a PU coating and UV-resistant finish, combining breathability with long-term durability. Underfoot, a high-pressure bonded aluminium sandwich floor with extra reinforcements provides a stable, rigid sleeping platform. Inside, a 6 cm thick polyester mattress (240 × 220 cm) with a removable cotton cover adds cushioning while remaining easy to clean after muddy adventures.
PU-coating refers to a thin layer of polyurethane applied to the fabric, helping it shed moisture and resist stains without significantly affecting airflow. Ripstop polyester uses a cross-woven reinforcement thread pattern to prevent small tears from spreading, extending the fly-top’s lifespan. The aluminium sandwich floor combines multiple bonded layers—aluminium skins around a core—to deliver both lightweight strength and rigidity under load.
