Amen to that. I'm in the market for a 12-man tipi sized shelter. I'm familiar with Kifaru tipis but haven't used a Seekoutside.

What are the differences in size, construction, etc?



You can come to our GJ Facility and see any of them setup or there is a place in Evergreen I believe that retails a few.

Short comparison is (and I haven't seen one of the others in year)
Seek Outside is Round vs Oval similar sq footage
We offer a dedicated vent that can close , a sod skirt, a storm flap on zippers , guy out points on all seams, stove port is different
Our Apex is a Dyneema interior / Waterproof Exterior
Functional Feature differences - Our guy outs allow flexi pitch to pitch 8 man size if needed , we have more venting options,
I think our liners fit pretty tight and very well so you don't loose much space
If you want screens ours are sewn in
We offer a seam sealing service at an additional charge
Fabrics probably similar but I guess they are berry compliant , we have never tried to certify , we have probably a higher waterproof rating and more reliable coating is my guess
We have a lot of interior / nest options if desired.
We have a pretty stringent QA process , thus we have some blem sales from time to time .. we are pretty picky
We generally have less stretch in our seams due to our construction


I'm sure others may chime in.

A 12 person, with a Big Mama Ti stove would be a pretty sweet rig for cold camps


Thanks
