Description
We love the feeling of being inside your tent while the rain falls. Everything feels as it should. This shelter is built for that.
The Swiftline is a lightweight trekking pole shelter designed for livability. An offset pole structure, side vestibule, and double-wall design make for a comfortable, stormworthy shelter.
The original Swiftline
Thirteen years in the making
Conceptualized around 2010 and launched in 2013, the Swiftline gained a loyal following. But there were two things we always knew we wanted to address: the fully asymmetric design made for a steep learning curve when pitching it, and the complex construction made it challenging to maintain consistent quality.
We paused in 2020 to fix both. It's built today in small batches in Missoula, Montana, by us, a team of two. We're glad it's back.
Open layout
On clear nights, roll back the tent walls for a more open and connected experience. Gaze at the stars while remaining protected from the bugs.
Interior space
The Swiftline was a pioneer of the offset pole structure. The diagonal ridgeline puts headroom where you sit, plus volume above your head and at your feet when lying down.
The inner net provides about 43" of interior height along the ridge. At the head and foot, you'll find ~10" of vertical space above the floor. Check out the topo maps below to see the full profile.
Click to enlargeQuick, intuitive pitch - fly first, pole handles up
Stake the four corners, insert and stake the poles, then stake the vestibules. Use eight stakes for maximum stability in storms, or six to save weight.
Pitching the fly first keeps the inner dry in the rain. For faster setup, you can leave both pieces clipped together and pitch them as one.
Orient your trekking poles so the tips point down. This protects the fly from punctures and keeps your pole handles out of reach of nibbling critters.
Designed for trekking poles, with optional tent poles available if you prefer.
Convenience: Side-entry & vestibule space
Enter and exit easily from the side with a zipper that can be operated with one hand. The side vestibule keeps your gear accessible without blocking the door.
Double-wall design
The Swiftline consists of two modular components: a rain fly and an inner net tent. Use the fly solo for a minimalist tarp setup, or pair them together for full protection. The double-wall design creates an air gap between layers that, along with vented apexes, mitigates condensation buildup.
Material options
Silpoly fabric and aggressive curves create a taut, wind-shedding pitch that won't sag in the rain. The fly uses recycled fabric, and the inner comes in two options: a lighter recycled Sil/Sil coated floor with 0.5 oz netting, or a more durable Sil/PU coated floor with 0.6 oz netting for better puncture resistance and grip.
We use a durable #5 Aquaguard zipper on the fly and a lighter #3 on the inner. Zipper sliders are often the first component to wear out, so regular cleaning and lubrication helps extend their life - especially in dusty conditions. If you ever need the sliders replaced, just get in touch.
Tub-floor w/ 3 length options
The Swiftline's floor measures 30" wide and is available in three lengths, 80", 86", or 92" (203, 218, or 234cm). The 7 - 8" deep tub tapers outward at the top to give you more elbow room.
Notes/FAQ:
- Do I need a groundsheet? Using a groundsheet will help extend the life of any floor. It's usually not necessary with either of our floor options, but the light floor option will benefit from a groundsheet more than the standard option.
- Do I need to seal the seams? Yes, before your first trip. Apply Seam Grip +SIL to the outside of the fly seams. Plan for 30-60 minutes. See our seam sealing guide for step-by-step instructions. The floor corners can also be sealed the same way, though it's rarely necessary. If you'd rather skip it, our optional seam sealing service handles it before we ship.
- Can I use the inner with other tarps? The Swiftline inner is unlikely to work well with other tarps, so we don't recommend it.
- Do your Bug Shelters or Bivys work with the rain fly? We do not recommend it. While you might be able to set them up in a pinch, they would be misshapen and difficult to use.

Pitching
How to pitch
- Prep: Set your poles to about 120 - 122 cm (47 - 48").
- Stake corners: Stake out the four main corners in a rectangle.
- Insert and stake poles: Pass poles under the fly, grab through the vent and nest the handle in the pole cup. Then stake out the apexes.
- Stake vestibule: Stake out the remaining two corners.
- Adjust: Adjust guylines and stakes to acheive a taut and balanced pitch.
- Attach inner: Clip the inner to the fly at the apexes and corners. Shorten connecting cords to tighten.
Tip: When breaking camp, leave the inner and outer connected so your shelter is ready for a quick, seamless setup next time.
How to pitch just the inner
When the weather is nice, you might want to pitch the inner without the rain fly. Here's how to do that.
- Prep: Unclip the rainfly's apex guylines (2) from the fly. You'll use these for the inner.
- Stake corners: At each corner of the tub, extend the shock cord to nearly its full length and clip it to the tie out at the bottom corner of the tub. Stake out all the corners, fairly tightly, in a rectangle.
- Install pole cups: Clip the guylines to the pole cups, then clip the inner's apex to the opposite side of the pole cup.
- Raise and stake apexes: Insert the pole handle into the pole cup to raise the apexes. Stake them out so the guyline runs roughly inline with the ridgeline.
Tip: If you're having issues with stability, it's likely due to either insufficient tension on the floor, or to the angle at which the guylines are running with respect to the inner.

It works to divide a room, but it's not easy to use.
Color: Grey, Size: 6 Panel
This comes in multiple pieces and you have to build every single piece including the cloth that is between the two poles. There are plastic clips to hold the sections together, but they easily come off if you move the dividers the wrong way or try to reposition it. The only thing holding it up is rectangular shaped feet on the bottom and they are a pain when you hit it with your toes. It works if you need to divide a room, but its not pretty and there are far better options. It's cheaply made and has a habit of falling down if you are trying to use it in a straight or slightly angled line.

Great privacy room divider
Color: Black, Size: 6 Panel, Color: Black, Size: 6 Panel
I got this room divider for our game room that shares the garage/laundry room, to separate the spaces. I was happy that it was relatively easy to put together in less than an hour with nothing more than a screwdriver (provided) although I used a small handheld drill.
The instructions were pretty straightforward and easy to understand as everything was labeled.
I have 2 small grandkids at home running around while I put this together so my timeline to completion might be longer than others.
It recommends 2 people to assemble, but I was able to complete alone in about 40 minutes total and as I said I used a small handheld drill, (although it does come with a small Philips screwdriver) which is the only tool you need for assembly.
The first two panels took me about 20 minutes but the other 4 were simple repeats after the initial 2. After all 6 panels were assembled the plastic clips to piece them together were literally a "SNAP" to put on.
The poles are made of metal and the panels are made of a very sturdy almost canvas like fabric. When held up to the light not a lot shined through so very good for privacy.
You can snap them together in sections and have 2 separate panels of 3 or what ever configuration you want. They are easy to move and bend around furniture or other obstacles, also fold flat together if you need to put them aside for storage.
This worked out just as we had planned, very easy to move around when needed and I am very happy with this product. I loved how simple it was to put together, easy instructions, and the durability and functionality of it.

Decent for the price. Instructions suck but most people should be able to figure it out. More below.
Color: Black, Size: 6 Panel, Color: Black, Size: 6 Panel
SUMMARY:
3 stars from me because it's firmly average. It's fine for the price. Assembly and materials are alright but I can see some caveats depending on your circumstances. Assembly instructions do a subpar job of pointing out some details.
ASSEMBLY INSTRUCTIONS:
Maybe it's because I'm autistic and/or building model kits and assembling stuff is my jam, but I honestly thought people were exaggerating when they were complaining about the instructions and I'd be able to flex my ~superior assembly skills.~ I was wrong! These instructions genuinely suck, and whoever is responsible for making them should be ashamed.
The instructions do a poor job of calling out some details regarding orientation of parts, and some of the images do not actually match the physical parts.
For example, it does not really outline the assembly of the end panels clearly, and I can see someone accidentally using the wrong poles. I've drawn over a photo to show what you should do to try and make it clearer. Additionally, the manual shows a flathead screw for bolting the feet into position, but the actual screw is not a flathead. It also does not point out the counterbore, so if you aren't paying attention you may put the foot pads onto the wrong side of the foot. It's also missing the fact that you need to use another one of the plastic pieces when you finish assembling a panel.
ACTUAL ASSEMBLY & MATERIALS:
To their credit, all of my bags were clearly labeled. The assembly process wasn't difficult. It's mostly just tedious and requires a fair amount of space. I was able to assemble it by myself without any real difficulty. However, the way it's assembled means two things.
One, the fabric parts aren't removable without disassembly. So if you want to use this in an environment where they would require cleaning, I would seriously recommend looking for another option. Or, you could buy this just to use the frame pieces and then somehow buy or make your own fabric pieces designed to be removable with velcro or something.
Two, because of the materials I really don't have a lot of faith in this thing surviving disassembly and reassembly. Like a lot of sorta-cheap-but-convenient furniture, it uses those spring-button connections and plastic inserts with self-tapping screws. Those things are not really meant to be disassembled and rethreaded. It also relies a lot on the tension of the poles and the fabric to keep everything rigid and squared, which I think puts a lot of pressure on the aforementioned buttons, plastic inserts, and the hollow metal rods. So I feel like that will also cause issues with disassembly and reassembly.
Basically once this thing is assembled, it's not really meant to be disassembled. The best you can do is spot-clean the fabric if you need to.
Speaking of the fabric, I didn't see any labels on them or anything in the manual that says what they are, but they feel like some kind of polyester. They generate static electricity pretty easily, and pet hair and debris sticks easily. So that's another downside of them not being easily removable.
For the most part it does seem pretty stable. The poles seem to be pretty uniform in length so they're all making contact with my floor. Obviously this isn't structural so it shouldn't be supporting anything, but the two main feet seem to be doing fine with keeping this thing upright.
CLOSING THOUGHTS:
Really, it's fine for what it is, but it could be better in a lot of little ways and the substandard quality of the instructions just seems unprofessional to me, which is why I'm being so harsh with my rating. Depending on your needs and environment you may want to consider a different option. Preferably one that is made to be disassembled with better materials, and/or one with fabric pieces made to be removed easily.
