A tent that is durable and comfortable even when handled carelessly is best.
When I was young, I didn't have much money, so heavy gear was my only option, but now that I'm an adult and can buy lighter gear, I've realized that the gear I use in the mountains should be durable enough to withstand rough handling. My criteria for choosing mountain gear is whether it's made with sturdy construction. Modern gear is reasonably light if you choose good quality. I own about 30 mountain tents.
Among them, the RIPEN Doma Dome is a one-of-a-kind tent with exceptional livability, even if you overlook its slightly heavy weight. As the name suggests, the space in front of the tent is a spacious earthen floor where you can place your luggage and cook. The roof of this earthen floor is also unique in that it has a frame, making it extremely strong. You can really feel the difference in conditions where the wind and rain are beating down on you.
The fact that this tent is still going strong after over 10 years of use is a testament to its toughness. I love lying inside it and quietly gazing at the rain-soaked mountains.

The single-person Doma Dome Light 1 is used during busy seasons or in small sites, while the two-person Doma Dome Light 2 is used when pitching as a base camp in mountainous areas with few climbers or at the foot of the mountain. Currently, there are three types available: Doma Dome Light 2, 3, and PLUS.
