Seam Sealing Your Tent
NOTE: TENT IS NOT FULLY WATERPROOF UNTIL IT IS SEAM SEALED.
In some areas of the tent, seams are sewn directly through the tent shell to
create a very strong construction. Water can leak through these areas so it
is necessary to cover the stitching with Seamgrip®. The Seamgrip® also adds
strength so you may choose to apply it to all exterior seams. However, it is
only necessary in the areas highlighted below.

3. Venting: Tenshi™ has three internally deployable
overhead vents in addition to a rear window for
added air circulation. Pressure Porting™ on the
largest two overhead vents help reduce forces on
the seams during high winds.
4. Vestibule: the full-size included vestibule
provides plenty of additional space for gear
storage and a dry entry during bad weather.
On sunny days, the vestibule is easily removed
by unzipping it from the tent. Pile snow or stack
ropes over the snow skirt to help keep out the
wind and snow.
5. Rollup Style Stuff Sack: a compartmentalized
stuff sack included with Tenshi provides a
convenient and neat way to store your tent
while on the move. Separate pockets for the tent
body/fly, poles, and stakes and repair kit help
keep you organized. The rollup style bag makes
compression easy while still letting air in to
circulate and dry out your tent.
