NEMO Equipment MI - Manual (Page 6)

3. ExoFly™ Retractable Vestibule: Mio™ features a
unique morphing vestibule. The tent is designed to
store gear inside where it can stay dry and close at
hand, but if you need a temporary vestibule simply
unclip and retract the inner tent from the fly.
4. Swallowtail: The reinforced pocket on the Mio™
foot end provides a place to insert a stick or other
rigid object. With the stick in place, the Swallowtail
patterning causes the entire bivy to tension. This
will help keep the bivy off your sleeping bag and
promote better air circulation. Mio™ can be used
without the stick and simply behaves like a
traditional bivy.
5. UVX Window: The vestibule includes a UVX
window so you can check conditions outside
without exposing your gear to the elements.
The window is optically clear, non-yellowing,
non-clouding, UV resistant, and remains flexible
in cold temperatures
6. OSMO™: Revised for 2010, NEMO’s improved
waterproof/breathable fabric, OSMO™, continues to
set the standard for breathability in single wall tents.
The new OSMO™ is a 40D ripstop polyester with a
hydrophobic microporous PU coating. The polyester
is naturally UV-resistant and doesn’t sag when
wet. OSMO™ is highly durable, chemical-resistant,
lightweight, and abrasion-resistant.
7. Watertight Compression Sack: Many of the
NEMO tents include watertight dry bags, including
Mio™. Having your tent in a watertight stuff sack
means it won’t take on water weight if it’s in your
backpack while you’re hiking in the rain, or if it’s in
your kayak when you roll your boat. Alternatively,
if you have to pack your tent wet, it will help keep
the rest of the gear in your pack dry.
