Product Description
The Moken are water gypsies in southeast Asia who sail the seas and survive away from the rest of the world. Now Sierra Designs adapts the Moken's highly skilled living philosophy to the company's most inventive tents, the Moken 4 and 6. The Moken 4 offers two 34.5-square-foot end rooms that hang inside the tent fly, giving you separate sleeping rooms for parents, kids, couples, and dogs. You can also remove one or both end rooms to make one enormous shelter. Other details include color-coded webbing and poles to make setup a breeze; crossing tent poles to increase strength; and double-track zipper sliders on the vestibules. The result is a family living shelter that's durable, comfortable, and functional.
The large doors let you create shaded, open-air entrance when staked. | Features: - Airflow vent system: This venting system allows air to circulate throughout the tent when needed. It also features an angled design with a mesh backing, so rain or snow will not get in.
- Color-coded webbing and poles: The color-coded webbing guides the pole placement for a quick, easy setup. Made of durable, lightweight nylon, the webbing also assists with quick rainfly setup.
- Dye-free optic white canopy: The canopy transmits light more effectively to produce a brighter, more pleasant environment when spending long hours inside the tent. Sierra Designs produces the optic white canopy without using chemical dyes.
- Locking pole tips: A Sierra Designs innovation, these pole tips stay locked in the grommet for a faster, easier setup.
- Sew-free windows: These windows employ bonded tape to create a stronger, lighter window than traditional sewn-and-sealed versions. This allows Sierra to place the windows in the most optimal location on a tent fly.
- SuperSeal floor: Combining the benefits of catenary and bathtub floors, the SuperSeal floor offers a raised, taped perimeter seam that's guaranteed waterproof. The floor also maintains a tighter pitch with a better wind line to prevent flapping.
- Swift Clips: This Sierra innovation allows campers to stake the tent before attaching the body to the pole structure.
- Tent Guard with Ultra Fresh: Applied as part of the PU coating on Sierra's rain flies, floors, and footprints, Tent Guard extends the life of a tent by thwarting mold, mildew, and fungus. The Tent Guard is particularly valuable on extended trips or in damp climates, as it protects a tent if it's packed or stored temporarily while wet.
- Other details: Attached common area/vestibule footprint, DAC Press Fit poles, double grommets, double-track vestibule, gear pockets, PVC-free tape, quick-pitch external pole structure, reflective guy-outs and zipper pulls, stash door, and short-sheet adjustable rainfly.

Product Description
When heading out with the group, the Moken 4 has space for a big family of 4 with bikes, dogs, and all the gear. Sophisticated Air Flow Vent systems keep fresh air flowing, while DAC Press Fit poles endure inclement weather. When the temps climb, you can "short sheet" the ends of rain fly, allowing flow-through ventilation into the end rooms. Sew Free windows provide a glance outside from the central common area, or stake out the enormous doors to create a shaded, open-air entrance. Tent Guard with Ultra Fresh keeps your investment fresh and functional for years to come by resisting mold and mildew throughout. The whole kit packs into its own backpack with sewn-in pitching instruction, making carrying the Moken much more convenient than lugging a stuffed bag. It's the ultimate shelter for large groups, or any party with bikes, gear, or separate couples.
