Blue Bohemian Tents are made from 100% cotton canvas. It’s a good idea to hose the tent down when you first pitch it so the fibres and adjust and expand – making the tent weatherised and thus more weather proof. We are always amazed at how water resistant our canvas tents are - in some cases more than nylon nightmares!
Over time and with extended use you may need to re-waterproof. There are many great products on the market for this simply by Googling “bell tent waterproofer”.
We are proud to offer a 1 year manufactures warranty and a lifetime of support. Please bear in mind that this warranty does not extend if the tents are kept up long term (a month or more).
If pitched correctly bell tents can stand winds up to 50 km/h. They are very waterproof (after being first exposed to rain/water. While they can stand a bit of snow, too much is not recommended as the weight of snow can be deceiving. Having one of our wood-burning stoves can help stave off the cold in snowy climes.
It's good to allow an extra 1-1.5 metres for the guy lines but you can easily reduce this by adjusting the toggles inwards.
