What are Hard Shell Roof Top Tents?
Roof top tents come in two different materials: hard shell tents and soft shell tents.
While soft shell roof top tents are ideal for your summer camping trips or trips with low exposure to weather elements, hard shell roof top tents can keep you protected and cozy whatever the weather. Driving with your hard shell rooftop tent couldn’t be easier, it has a low footprint on your car, SUV or truck.
To use a hard shell roof top tent, simply connect the frame to your roof rails, pull a few levers, and your home away from home is ready to go.
These tents typically come with a built-in mattress, making them inherently more comfortable than their soft shell countertops.
