Design your own layout.

Opening of the BLACK SHELTER AIR and example of internal living use

A shelter design, not an integrated inner tent.

Arrange tables and chairs to create a shared living room. Try a "kangaroo style" setup by placing a small tent inside to separate sleeping and living areas. You can create a space that suits you based on how you arrange your gear.

Estimated capacity: 4–8 people
Usable space will vary depending on the number of people, furniture, and the size of your small tent.

Example of a small tent set up inside the BLACK SHELTER AIR

For those who prefer a separate sleeping area. The small tent and furniture shown in the photo are not included. Please check dimensions to ensure your tent will fit.

Open the windows and enjoy the view.

You can adjust how the openings are used to enjoy a sense of openness in the living area.

08 / CHIMNEY OPENING

Chimney opening specs and safety.

Chimney opening and cover of the BLACK SHELTER AIR

The tent is equipped with a chimney opening. However, the silnylon fabric is sensitive to high temperatures, and the presence of this opening does not guarantee that wood stoves can be used safely.

There is a risk of fabric damage from heat/embers, as well as risks of fire, burns, and carbon monoxide poisoning. If considering use, please be sure to read the following notes.

Notes on wood stoves and heat

  • This product uses silnylon fabric to achieve its lightweight design. It is sensitive to high temperatures; heat from wood stoves, radiant heat from chimney pipes, and embers may cause melting, shrinking, deformation, or holes.
  • When using a wood stove, always use a heat-resistant chimney guard, heat shield, and heat-resistant mat to prevent thermal damage to the fabric. These items do not guarantee full protection against all risks.
  • Always ventilate when using a wood stove inside the tent and we strongly recommend using a carbon monoxide detector.
  • Users assume all responsibility for safety management regarding accidents (fire, burns, carbon monoxide poisoning), tent damage, or harm to property caused by stove use. Our company is not responsible for accidents or damage caused by incorrect installation or improper use.
  • Water droplets may occur during rain or in humid/condensation conditions.
  • Please perform a test setup before first use to confirm the procedure and check contents.
  • Secure the unit firmly with pegs and guy lines. Proper fixation does not guarantee safety during high winds or severe weather.
  • When packing up, check all components and ensure all pegs and parts are collected.
