FAQs
Is the TC version more weather-resistant than polyester?
TC fabric offers better thermal performance and breathability, but it is not completely waterproof like PU-coated polyester. It is water-repellent and performs best with proper tensioning and pitch angle.
Can the GIGI-2 TC be used in winter?
Yes — with careful pitching and dry conditions. The TC fabric retains warmth better than polyester, but heavy snow loading is not recommended.
Does it include an inner tent or mesh room?
No. The GIGI-2 TC is an open shelter. Users may pair it with compact freestanding inner tents if needed.
Does TC fabric shrink when wet?
TC fabric tightens slightly when wet, improving water resistance. Always re-tension the shelter during rain for optimal performance.
