Khyam fully fitted stone protection ground sheets
	to fit
Fully fitted stone protection groundsheet perfectly matched to the footprint of your Khyam tent including the porch areas which have no sewn in ground protection. Key reasons to use a groundsheet: 1. minimise wear and tear and prolong the life of your tent 2. reduce condensation and improve warmth by providing extra insulating layer. 3. Improve water resistance 4. Helps prevent a muddy sewn-in groundsheet and walkthough from porch / awning areas which might soil the rest of the tent. 5. Improves comfort and peace of mind - after all its much easier and cheaper to replace the groundsheet than your tent.

Inflatable Tents

The Air tent can be inflated in just 15 to 20 seconds and folds downs in 2 seconds. Superbly engineered pneumatic poles are virtually indestructable and give better headroom than traditional designs and are incredibly rigid even in strong winds. An ideal tent to keep in the back of the car.
