Features
- Pyramid structure maximises the ratio of internal space to weight.
- Excellent standing room – you read that right, standing room!
- The 4Midable is adaptable. It can be pitched low and wide or high and narrow to fit your camp site and conditions.
- Steep wall architecture mitigates condensation.
- When set up as fly only – it shelters a group and gives space for four to sleep.
- When set up with the optional mesh inner, an a bug free apartment for two, with a huge vestibule for guests, storage or cooking. Add-on mesh inner or Bathtub Floor creates a separate sleeping area and vestibule within your 4Mid.
- The central pole is telescopic and made from aluminium, with a 20 millimetre diameter giving structural integrity with minimal lateral flex during pitching.
- The pole can be adjusted at 50 millimetre increments: raise or lower the ‘Mid to find the perfect level of ventilation for every condition.
- Walking pole converter is included, allowing you to leave the tent pole at home for ultralight hiking.
- All ONE PLANET flies are seam sealed with tape in the factory so you don’t have to do it. The fabric has a sil/PU coating and a high water head, giving you protection in all conditions.
- Fly doors can be rolled back completely to create a three-sided ‘Mid with uninterrupted views – chose your location carefully!
- Ventilation vents are steep, allowing maximum air flow but not wind-driven rain. Set them open for good air flow without hassle.
- When you roll up the fly door a gutter is formed, naturally catching and channelling rain away from the tent entrance.
- Guy lines and lightweight adjusters are simple and effective, with reflective rope and storage pockets to keep things neat and tidy.

DYNAMIC 15 D FLY
15-denier nylon is a dynamic material aimed to balance light weight with durable performance. It’s designed to keep you warm and dry in all conditions: it’s completely seam sealed in the factory, with a sil/PU coating on the fabric and a high, 1200 millimetre water head. It’s easily rolled or stuffed, and packs down small to save space in your rucksack.
POLES
Our ‘Mid series use a central, telescopic aluminium pole with a 20 millimetre diameter, because its light, tough and reliable. It provides structural integrity with minimal lateral flex during pitching. The pole is adjustable at 50 millimetre increments, and folds into four sections (480 mm long when folded) for easy packing.
ATTENTION TO ZIPS
We use a #5 YKK zip because they’re durable and long lasting. Zips of this size are less likely to get clogged with dirt, catch and snag. The zips are also designed so the slider will wear out before the teeth: if you ever wear one out, it’s a quick fix. Dual sliders allow doors to be opened easily from either end.
GUY LINES & POCKETS
Our guy lines and adjusters are seriously good, versatile and functional, allowing tents to be set up to fit the situation. Simply loop them around a peg or branch and tighten securely, locking off if necessary. The reflective cord is highly visible in the dark, useful for preventing late-night stumbles and in emergency situations. Guy lines slip neatly into their pockets when not in use or when packing up: another example of attention to detail, simplified.
CONDENSATION MITIGATION
The Midables’ steep wall architecture gives excellent internal space and mitigates the effects of condensation, making it excellent for sleeping in all conditions. When inside the tent, it’s easy to stand up, get changed or move around, even with others around. Any condensation forms on the inside of the fly, forming water droplets that run down the steep walls and flick off at the base.
VENTILATION
The ‘Mid series has amazing ventilation that is able to be adapted to suit all conditions from protected snowlines to open desert plains. In torrential conditions, the steep ventilation ports block sideways rain while allowing air flow. The true innovation comes though the telescopic pole and adjustable peg points which allow you to raise or lower your ‘Mid for the perfect ventilation in every condition. Keep it open and airy in warmer climes, and button it down when it’s getting fresh.
MESH INNER & BATHTUB FLOOR
Our optional mesh inners turn the ‘party tents’ – the 2Midable and 4Midable – into bug-free, comfortable retreats while maintaining versatility and storage space. The micromesh keeps out the creepy-crawlies, while durable 75 D floors keep you dry. The inners sit neatly under half the tent, allowing ample space for gear storage in the vestibule. The stand-alone Bathtub Floor is built from durable 70 D Nylon, creating a footprint that keeps out the wet and muddy.
V PEG
ONE PLANET V style pegs are victorious in fraught and fair weather. A lighter alternative for bushwalking without sacrificing durability, function or fit. Specifically hardened for use in Australian conditions and crafted into a V form they hold fast in aussie dirt. A small notch in the back secures your tent loop and they’re easily removed in the morning thanks to the simple pull cord.
WALKING POLE CONVERTER
The ‘Midable series is clever, with the walking pole converter a classic example. It doubles as the pole and peg bag and allows you to save weight by leaving the centre pole behind and using a pair of walking poles (either folding or telescopic) as an easily adjustable centre pole for the tent. By connecting opposing ends of the poles with maximum crossover, structural integrity and minimal flex are ensured. Read our instructions here!
