Tents that fit two 25-inch sleeping pads

Wide pads are 25 inches, so two of them need 50 inches of floor — and a lot of tents sold for two people are 50 inches at the shoulders and 43 at the foot. This list is the tents whose published interior width divides to 25 inches or more per person, which is the only honest way to answer the question from a spec sheet.

How this list is ordered

Interior floor width ÷ capacity of 25 in or more, using the maker's published width. Ordered by width per person, widest first. Tents whose makers publish no interior width cannot appear here.

22 tents qualify. Top of the list on that measure is the Nemo Chogori — 20.1 sq ft per person at 7 lb 1 oz, ~$800.
