Model 6098. Whether you’re headed to the campground with your family, or elk camp with your hunting buddies, this rugged, all-season tent is well suited for the occasion. Made with premium grade, Hydra-Shield™, 100% cotton duck canvas. The tight weave and silicone finish make the canvas watertight yet breathable, minimizing condensation and mugginess. Go ahead and touch the inside walls during a downpour—this canvas will not wick water. The Flex-Bow frame has tempered, spring steel rods that keep the tent taut, and robust 1-inch steel tube poles that will hold up to fierce winds. The floor material is a puncture resistant, 13.5 oz vinyl with welded seams, that keeps water out. Easy, one-person setup takes only a few minutes after you have it staked out. The steep walls and 6’1” high ceiling provide a roomy interior with stand-up, walk-around comfort. Large front and back doors with top rated #10 YKK zippers give convenient access. Four windows, and two vents allow ample air flow. Windows and vents have no-see-um screen mesh, keeping out the smallest bugs. A customizable gear organizer system offers plenty of places to stow gear. A large awning provides shade and a covered entry. Stainless steel, wire stake loops give superior strength and durability.

Flex-Bow 9x8 deluxe
The guys and I took our tents to the Rio Grande National Forest and pitched for a week at over 9000 ft. I’m a widower and my Kodiak was home. It rained, it snowed, the wind howled but my Kodiak was a rock. Never budged or leaked at all. What was funny was during the inclement weather I was annoyed that all my buddies ended up in my tent. Oh and it holds heat extremely well! Had my heater as low as I could put it. This is the Cadillac of tents folks. I love mine.

9 X 8 Bow Flex Tent
Practiced setting the tent up a couple of times in the backyard when I first got it. The canvas definitely stretches out after the first time of putting the cross bar through. Went three days of camping this last week with the new tent. We had incredible amounts of rain and wind for the majority of 3 days. The tent did not budge nor did it leak. It got filthy dirty with mud and debris but it stood like a rock. I was also very pleased the difference between other tents that I have where I was always hunched over moving around. With this tent I was standing tall and had a ton of room. So I'm a happy camper and just the ticket for how I base camp and do long day hikes. Worth the money in my book.

Purchased Tent
Today the weather was finally nice enough to put up the 9x8’ tent I purchased. It literally took me 30 minutes to put it up by myself (ground over and tent fully staked), and I’m a 5’5” 69 year old woman. So excited to start camping in it!

Fantastic
Super simple and quick to set up. Very durable and well made, I'm very impressed with the quality. The 9x8 "can" sleep more than 2 adults, but I'd recommend not more than that for maximum comfort. If you're planning on camping with kids, dogs, etc, I'd highly recommend one of the larger sizes.

Great tent….
I love this tent, but when it comes to adding other features to it, it’s limited. I’d love have a wing vestibule and a gear loft that would work with it. Other than that, I’m super happy with it. I docked this tent a star on this review, due to the limitations. I may be able to adapt the tent with these myself, but I’d rather it came with the tent right from the start.

Family Camping in Oregon
My husband set up the tent in our front yard last weekend. It didn't take long at all for him to have it put together. (I wasn't able to help. I had surgery late last December and haven't been cleared to lift anything.) Once it was, we both stood back and admired it. Everything about this tent was better than I had anticipated. The canvas, the double-stitched seams, and the durable zippers, it is all made very well and made to last. I don't know if you are supposed to say that a tent is beautiful or not, but it is. The design of the tent is aesthetically pleasing with its clean lines and neutral colors. Both my husband and I are impressed! We couldn't have found a more perfect tent. This is to be great. We are going to enjoy this tent for many years to come.

Initial quality seems great
Everything came as expected, and looks great...I wish that I had purchased the 10 x 10 my SJ cot hits the walls.

9x8 Flex-Bow Tent
We are delighted with our new 9x8 Flex-Bow tent. We used it the first time for 10 days in the dusty, dry northern Nevada desert (August 2022). It survived all the wind and dust storms, and kept most of the dust outside. The zippers worked well in the dust with just a bit of wax added. It is the perfect size for two people and our gear, and we loved standing up inside. We look forward to many more outings with this tent.
