Nemo Chogori
No citable rating — see why we hide some.
Forty square feet for two people is twenty square feet each, which is the roomiest per-person figure of any two-person tent in this catalog — and it is deliberate, because an expedition tent is somewhere you sit out a storm for two days, not somewhere you sleep. Two doors, two vestibules, 113 ounces, and a peak height of only 39 inches, which is the shape that survives wind. Nemo does not publish fabric details for it, which is the one thing you would want to know at $800.

Pads: 32.5 in of floor width each — 2 × 25 in pads fit.
Length: a 89 in floor leaves room for a sleeper up to about 6ft 11in once you allow six inches for a foot box and a pillow.
Best for
Expedition and basecamp use where you will be inside for whole days and wind matters more than headroom.

Features
- Two doors and two vestibules, unusual on an expedition tent
- Low 39 in profile built for wind rather than headroom
- Freestanding pole structure for snow pitches
- 3-person version at 49.6 sq ft for basecamp use
In its favour
- Twice the per-person floor area of a typical 2-person backpacking tent
- Two doors and two vestibules, which most expedition tents give up
- Low wind profile without dropping to a single-hoop shape
- The 3-person at 49.6 sq ft works as a two-person basecamp tent with gear inside
Against it
- Nemo publishes no fly or floor fabric specification at all for this tent
- 113 oz is seven pounds carried
- 39 in peak height is low for a tent you will spend storm days in
- $800 before a footprint
