Not all “premium” roof tents are built the same

Roof tents built to this standard are a rarity in New Zealand

Most roof tents in NZ are variations of the same generic, mass-produced shells - often rebranded and marketed as “locally designed.”

Xpeditionz range sits above that.

We specialise in globally proven, South African-made expedition-grade tents - including brands with 40+ years of real-world use across extreme environments worldwide.

Most hard shell tents use:

  • Rebranded generic shells

  • Plastic corner construction

  • Lower-grade canvas

  • Minimal insulation - often relying on anti-condensation mats

  • Basic mattresses and hardware

Our SUB60 sits in this category - but does it exceptionally well and represents outstanding value for money.

 

Step above that and everything changes:

  • Fully welded aluminium shells

  • No plastic corner joints

  • Genuine South African polycotton canvas - dual layered up to 800gsm equivalent on selected models

  • Proper thermal insulation (up to an inch thick) built into the tent shells

  • Premium high-density mattresses

  • Expedition-grade construction throughout

 

Built for customers who want something genuinely higher-end - without spending dramatically more than typical NZ-market tents.

    Our hard shell tents combine perfectly with our South African real canvas awnings.  Add the optional wall set for covered and enclosed space.
