A Hard Shell Tent That Doesn't Compromise On Space

The TUFFTREK® Kalahari-X is our premium aluminium hard shell roof tent, engineered for serious overland travel, touring and expedition use.

Whether you're exploring the Scottish Highlands, touring Europe or heading deep into the mountains, the Kalahari-X is built for real adventure.

What Makes It Different

Built Around One Idea: More Space, Less Faff

Every part of the Kalahari-X exists to solve a real problem with conventional hard shell tents.

The external X-Hinge that creates real interior space

Conventional clamshell tents eat into headroom with their hinge mechanism. The Kalahari-X moves it outside the shell entirely.

External X-Hinge Aluminium Honeycomb Shell

Open and packed away in about 60 seconds

Two high-quality gas struts do the heavy lifting. Release the locks, and the Kalahari-X opens itself.

~60 Second Setup Single-Handed Opening

Military-grade canvas that blocks light, not just water

The 320gsm ripstop canvas carries UV-resistant and blackout coatings.
