LARP Tent Merglin, Group Tent, natural-coloured
This functional medieval group tent provides ample space for 2 to 3 occupants (3 Meters) or 4 to 5 occupants (4 Meter) with their respective belongings and gear. It is quick and easy to pitch and has just the right flair for any medieval market, military camp or LARP event. With an big inner height and a generous diameter it offers sufficient headroom and sleeping space. The side walls can be rolled up, which allows you to enjoy the summer weather and keep it airy on hot days, while staying well protected from heat and direct sunlight. The tent is equipped with a convenient zip door and the bottom edge closes all the way around with a sod cloth. Three closable vents on the roof as well as on the side walls provide for proper ventilation.
Thanks to its particular weave (twill), the 100% cotton canvas is exceptionally tear-resistant and virtually impervious to water.

Important information on assembly, handling and maintenance of our historical tents:
You can prolong the life of your Viking tent, Roman tent, Saxon tent, Knights tent, medieval tent, trade tent or medieval market stall and enjoy its use for a further long time by observing the following precautions:
Putting the tent up is a fairly easy task that can be completed quickly and stress-free thanks to the loop system. The poles can be adjusted in length to suit your needs. When pitching the tent, please make sure that the ropes connecting roof angles and pegs continuously follows the lines of the tent's seams and that the pegs are properly aligned with the tent's bottom corners or loops. Do not overstretch the ropes, for natural materials such as wood or cotton alter under the influence of air humidity and need space to contract and expand. You may thus avoid e.g. that the roof holes for the poles get distended and ultimately facilitate water ingress. We recommend slightly slackening the ropes in the evening, for air humidity considerably rises at night and may increase the risk of excessive stress exerted on your tent. The ropes should also be somewhat slackened in rain or high atmospheric humidity.
When setting up the side wall, it is best to start with the tent opening side. As an additional preventive measure against moisture and mould, the tent walls should as possible not quite touch the ground (this does not apply to tents with groundsheet). If the tent has been exposed to humidity, we strongly advise you to dry it after use, as it is otherwise likely to mould. Wooden poles should never be wrapped in plastic or the like. Once the poles are dry, a cotton cloth is perfectly sufficient. Do not, on any account, use detergents or any other cleaning products to clean your tent. The best way to remove dried out dirt is to use a brush. As for the storage of your tent over an extended period of time, please separate all accessories (pegs, ropes, etc.) from the tent itself and preferably pack everything separately. Make sure that all items are dry and stored in a dry place.
