Nemo Hornet OSMO 2 person Ultralight Backpacking Tent

One of the most thoughtfully engineered ultralight tents on the market, now built with NEMO's proprietary OSMO fabric that eliminates forever chemicals without adding weight or sacrificing weather performance. The Hornet OSMO 2P delivers genuine two-person livability at two pounds, a combination that used to require significant compromise.

Highlights

• 2-pound total weight for a 2-person tent — A benchmark weight for a shelter with this level of livable space and weather protection. Light enough to split between two people and barely notice it in either pack.
• OSMO poly-nylon ripstop fabric — 100% recycled yarns with 4x longer lasting water repellency and 3x less wet stretch than standard ultralight fabrics. PFAS-free construction that meets flame retardancy standards without added chemicals. Better performance and a cleaner environmental footprint in one fabric.
• Flybar volumizing pole clip — A patent-pending clip system that adds headroom at the head of the tent and distributes fly tension evenly across the structure. The detail that makes a two-pound tent feel roomier than it has any right to.
• Two doors and two vestibules — Each person gets their own door and gear storage. A critical livability feature for two-person tents that not all ultralight options deliver at this weight.
• Volumizing guy-outs and corner struts — Pull the inner tent walls outward to create more usable floor space and keep sleeping bags away from condensation at the foot of the tent. Engineering solutions that show up in real comfort on wet nights.
• White and black no-see-um mesh — White mesh on the sides for daytime privacy, black mesh overhead that goes virtually transparent at night for stargazing. A thoughtful dual-mesh design that most tent manufacturers don't bother with.
• Nightlight Pockets — Slip your headlamp in and the pocket diffuses the light into a soft, even tent lantern glow while filtering blue light. A small detail that makes a real difference on late nights in camp.
• Divvy Cube rectangular stuff sack — Packs down small enough to fit in the bottom compartment of your pack alongside a sleeping bag. The rectangular shape stows more efficiently than a stuff sack and splits easily between two partners.
• Gatekeeper one-handed door tiebacks — Secure the door open with one hand without fumbling with clips or cords. A practical convenience detail for crawling in and out in the dark or in bad weather.
• Bluesign approved floor material — Meets strict ecological and chemical standards for the component of the tent that contacts the ground and takes the most abrasion.
• NEMO Adventure Forever Guarantee — Backed by NEMO's lifetime warranty.

Best for

Ultralight backpacking partners who want a two-person shelter that genuinely lives up to its weight rating without sacrificing weather protection, livable space, or material quality. A strong investment tent for anyone who spends serious nights out and wants a shelter built to last.
