The Exolight I by Jack Wolfskin is a single-person dome tent designed for ultralight backpacking. It delivers a simple, low-bulk shelter that keeps your pack weight down while still offering the essentials for a comfortable night in the outdoors.
Its outer fly is made from siliconized 20D nylon ripstop, which helps prevent small tears from growing and holds up well against abrasion on rocky terrain. Inside, a breathable 20D nylon body paired with fine 15D mosquito mesh balances airflow with insect protection. The groundsheet uses a tougher 40D nylon to resist punctures and ground moisture. Everything you need—pegs, guy lines, a roll-up stuff sack and a basic repair kit—is included, so you can set up and maintain the tent without hunting for extra gear.
Here’s how the fabric ratings work: denier (D) measures the thickness of the yarn—20D fabrics weigh less for easy packing, while the 40D floor fabric adds durability where it counts. The tent’s trail weight of about 1.245 kg reflects the shelter stripped down to its essentials, so you’ll carry even less weight if you leave the repair kit and stuff sack behind on shorter treks.
