The Vango Apex Compact 200 is a two-person tent that's quick to pitch and packs down small. It's perfect for backpacking, bikepacking, and other camping adventures where space is at a premium.
Easy to set up, you can connect the flysheet and inner together for all-in-one pitching. External guylines and an internal Tension Band System help keep the tent stable in windy conditions. Doors on both sides provide access without needing to climb over each other. The front vestibule is ideal for storing your backpacks. Vango designed the O-shaped inner doors so you can open them one-handed; mesh panels help improve ventilation.
The tent's non-freestanding tunnel shape achieves an optimal space-to-weight ratio. This is complemented by the poles, which fold into short 30cm sections. It makes packing the tent into your backpack or bike pannier easy. Or you can attach the tent bag to your handlebars using the webbing lash points.
The Apex Compact 200 is part of Vango's Earth Collection. Its Protex Eco recycled flysheet is made with single-use plastics without compromising the durability or weather protection needed outdoors.

Recycled
Patagonia first made a fleece from recycled plastic bottles in 1993, since then more and more brands have been ‘recycling rubbish’ to make the high-performance clothing and equipment that we all love to rely on in the outdoors. There are now many different types of materials and products made from waste that would have otherwise ended up in a landfill.
