Features
Greater Sense of Space
By using two side sub-poles, the disadvantage of limited space in single-pole tents is largely resolved. This creates a comfortable and spacious living area where two people can sit face-to-face.
Easy Setup Design
Simply stake down the four corners with the positioning webbing attached, then insert the central pole, and the tent can stand on its own. This design makes setting up the camp convenient. Although the base is octagonal, anyone can set it up easily.
TC Fabric Suitable for Autumn and Winter Seasons
TC is a material blended with 35% cotton and 65% polyester. Compared to synthetic fibers, cotton has a higher moisture content at room temperature, possessing the characteristic that it is less prone to burning through even if it comes into contact with sparks.
Suitable for 2 People
With tables, chairs, and other necessary equipment, it can comfortably accommodate 2 adults. Depending on the size of your gear and the tent's internal layout, it can accommodate up to 4 people.
Equipped with a Snow Skirt
The bottom perimeter is equipped with a snow skirt to block cold air from entering from below. To reduce dirt and grime, the snow skirt that comes into contact with the ground is made of 100% polyester.
Enhanced Pole Strength
The TC model is heavier, placing more strain on the poles. The central pole diameter for the synthetic fiber model is φ30mm, while for the TC model, it has been increased to φ32mm to firmly support the tent body.
Three-Head Zipper
The main entrance zipper is equipped with three zipper heads. By adjusting the position of the three zipper heads, an opening can be created at any position, offering flexible and convenient adjustment.
Versatile Pitching Methods
By extending the fabric at the entrance outwards, you can achieve an open feel similar to a tarp. Since it is secured upwards from the edge of the snow skirt, the front vestibule can be neatly and beautifully spread out.
Storage State
The tent body and all poles can be stored in the carrying bag. For easy identification, the carrying bag for the synthetic fiber model is gray, while the TC model is black.

TC Product Characteristics
-
This product is not waterproof.
The TC material used in this product is a blend of natural and synthetic fibers. The characteristic of this fabric is that when wet by rain, the natural fibers expand, filling the gaps between the fibers. While this can temporarily reduce water penetration, it does not achieve complete waterproofing. Furthermore, rain may seep through the seams, so please be aware of this.
-
The water-repellent effect of the tent cannot be maintained long-term.
The water-repellent effect on the fabric surface cannot be maintained long-term. With increased use, the water-repellent effect may diminish, or rain stains may appear. Please understand that the water-repellent effect cannot be maintained indefinitely. Issues arising from the water-repellent effect are not covered under warranty, so please be aware of this.
-
Regarding color variations, minor damage, etc., of TC material.
TC material may exhibit weaving color variations, minor weaving damage, uneven dyeing, etc., during the production process. Such conditions are not covered under warranty, so please be aware.
-
Fabric is prone to discoloration.
This fabric is prone to discoloration when exposed to UV radiation. Please avoid long-term continuous use or use in environments with strong UV radiation, such as beaches.
-
Please dry thoroughly before storing after use.
TC material is highly absorbent, so please ensure it is thoroughly dried after use. If stored in a damp state, it can lead to mold, odor, staining, and deterioration.
Fabric Introduction
- ZANE ARTS GIGI-1 TC Daily Life uses TC material fabric.
- TC material is a blend of 65% polyester fiber and 35% cotton.
- The "T" in TC stands for Tetron, and the "C" stands for Cotton. Tetron is a brand name for polyester fiber.
- Compared to synthetic fibers, cotton has a higher moisture content at room temperature. Even if it comes into contact with sparks, the moisture content can protect the fabric, making it less likely to burn through. This characteristic is why TC material is considered relatively flame-resistant.
- Additionally, cotton has the property of swelling when it absorbs moisture. When the tent gets wet with rain, the cotton fibers expand and fill the gaps in the fabric structure (the spaces between warp and weft yarns), reducing the chance of rain entering the interior.
- Due to the fabric's water-absorbing nature, it can absorb condensation and reduce back-flow, making the interior environment more comfortable.
