Set your FKT with the String Ridge VST. Our VST tents are inspired by you, combining innovative materials with user-first design to create the ideal ultralight shelter. Engineered to provide maximum usable space for you and your gear, these tents are ultralight, durable, and reliable. HyperBead® fabric with Hybrid Single/Double Wall construction and an integrated ventilation system promotes airflow while reducing condensation. Cut weight - without cutting corners - with the VST series.

The String Ridge VST gives you the best of both worlds: weight stats you can only get with a trekking pole shelter, combined with a stable, reliable design. Extra 0.5 sizing creates dedicated protected space for your gear, or a four legged friend. Innovative, externally supported asymmetrical architecture makes for a spacious shelter with plenty of room to lay out your gear and get ready for the next day's adventure.

Customer Reviews (4.6 / 5 · 5 reviews)

Aurora O. ★★★★★

The pitch setup was so intuitive that I had it freestanding in under five minutes on a windy ridgeline, which is honestly a first for me with any ultralight shelter. The way the innovative materials hold tension without sagging makes the whole design feel genuinely thought through.

James O. ★★★★★

The material feels incredibly light yet sturdy when I hoist it, and the single-pole setup means I can have it fully tensioned in about three minutes flat. Perfect for my ultralight trips where every gram counts.

Julian ★★★★★

The VST material kept me dry through a night of steady rain on the ridge, and it packed down smaller than my old shelter. Setup took me about five minutes even with cold hands. For an ultralight tent, it punches way above its weight.
