Article Summary:

When we saw Sierra Design's new Assailant tent at the Winter 2007 Outdoor Retailer Show, we were impressed by its design and breathability rating. The fabric is Sierra Designs' Drizone, which is a two-layer polyurethane laminate with a breathability rating of 28,000 g/m2/24 hr and waterproofness rating of 18,000 mm, which are outstanding numbers. The breathability rating is equivalent to that of eVENT fabric measured by the same test. How did the Assailant perform in our field tests, and how practical is a one-person tent for winter camping?
