The Big Agnes String Ridge VST 2.5 is an ultralight, three-season backpacking tent designed for fast-moving backcountry adventures where weight savings and livability matter. Part of the VST (Velocity = Space/Time) series, it combines trekking-pole efficiency with a stable, spacious design. Built with proprietary HyperBead™ fabric, this recycled, PFAS-free material delivers strong waterproof protection and durability while keeping weight to a minimum. Its hybrid single- and double-wall construction enhances airflow and helps reduce condensation in changing conditions. The unique 2.5-person layout provides extra room for gear, wider sleeping pads, or a dog without increasing pack weight, while dual vestibules add convenient storage. With a trekking-pole supported structure that maximizes interior space and quick setup, the String Ridge VST 2.5 offers a lightweight, reliable shelter for serious backpackers prioritizing speed, comfort, and performance.
