Do you hate pitching a tent and the thought of a trailer makes your palms sweat? Meet Thule Outset – an invention that combines the best of both worlds, without the drama and sweat.
When nature calls but your patience doesn't hear, it comes to the fore Thule Outset. An innovative tent solution that attaches directly to your car's towbar, it unfolds in minutes to create a comfortable camping base without towing a huge trailer or exercising on the roof. Yes, that means: no ladders, no back bends, no "where's the B-stick?" moments.
Less hassle, more adventure
Thule Outset weighs in at a modest 74 kg (£163 for our American friends), meaning you can easily transport it with almost any vehicle that has a towbar. Forget about trucks and tank-sized SUVs – this little gem will work with your everyday station wagon too.
It's made from extremely durable 600D ripstop polyester that's water-resistant yet breathable. That means you won't get a drippy nose during a summer storm, and you won't wake up in a mini-sauna in the morning. And yes, it can sleep three adults - enough for the average family, three friends, or one spoiled solo adventurer with two pups.
Compact yet comfortable
Thule Outset is designed for quick set-up and take-down. When you get to your favorite wilderness spot, just unzip the cover, extend the platform, and the tent magically appears. Set-up takes less than 5 minutes (read: about as long as finding a signal for TikTok).
When you're ready to go, you just put everything back, plug it in, and drive away. No towing, no special driving test, no worried looks from passersby while reversing.
Who is Thule Outset for?
For all those who love nature but don't like complications. For weekend getaways, camping lazybones, digital nomads and urban explorers. Those who want comfort without the crowds on a camping site. And for those who appreciate Scandinavian design with practicality in mind.
Is it worth it?
Price? Sure, it's not the cheapest solution on the market, but this is no ordinary tent either. The Thule Outset is an investment in carefree weekends, summer getaways, and spontaneity. It's your ticket to a world of stress-free camping. And if you've already splurged on streaming services you don't use, you might as well get something you'll actually use.
