The North Face Vario 23 Tent is an ultralight, 2 person tent, which offers very good weather protection.

It features DAC Featherlit NSL aluminum poles with a reverse combi technology.

The canopy is fully seam sealed and the ultralight floor is fully taped, for good water resistance.

The Vario 23 Tent also has a D-shaped door, and internal pockets for storing vital gear nearby.

Pull-out front and rear vestibules are available, for excellent ventilation, when coupled with the mesh panels.

The North Face offers a lifetime warranty.

The North Face Vario 23 Tent is found by users to be a little small, not quite large enough for two people, especially if a lot of gear has to be stored as well.

However, its good weather resistance makes most users forget that small detail, and fully enjoy their leak-free tent, thanks to the seamed seals.

Users have nothing but good words to say about the Vario 23’s weight, finding it especially easy to cary and set up, even without any help.

Strong winds are not a problem, and neither is condensation, as most users report, but care must be taken to use the ventilation system of the tent in a proper way.

The North Face Vario 23 Tent, although small, as most users find it, has all the good characteristics and features of a more expensive tent, and that is why users recommend it to others.

Company Info:

The North Face brand was established in 1968 in San Francisco, California, when Douglas Tompkins and Dick “Hap” Klopp created an equipment retail store that eventually acquired the current name “The North Face”. This name was chosen because the north face of a mountain in the northern hemisphere is generally the most difficult face to climb.

The North Face’s logo consists of a slightly skewed quarter-circle with two lines running within it. This image is an interpretation of Half Dome, a rock formation in Yosemite National Park, viewed from the west, with the sheer north (or northwest) face of Half Dome to the left.
