The Travel Extreme thermal emergency tent tube is a dual-purpose survival shelter that works as both a heat-reflective bivvy tube and a floorless A-frame tent, sized at 245 x 150 cm (96.5 x 59.1 in) to shelter one or two people in an emergency. Made from metallized polyester that reflects body heat back inward, it helps guard against hypothermia when you are stranded, injured or caught out overnight, and at just 200 g (7.05 oz) it belongs in every hiking, climbing and cycling emergency kit.
Hand-picked by our gear specialists, this shelter is chosen for its versatility in a genuinely small, light package. Slip inside it as a thermal tube to trap warmth, or string a cord between two trees or poles to pitch it as a quick A-frame tent that blocks wind and rain. Because it packs down tiny and weighs almost nothing, there is no reason to leave it behind, and its large footprint gives real coverage when it matters most.
Who is the EmergencyTent Tube designed for?
This shelter is essential for hikers, trekkers, climbers, trail runners, cyclists and backcountry skiers who venture beyond easy help. It is equally valuable in a car emergency kit or a family readiness bag. Anyone who could face an unplanned night out, a sudden weather turn or an injury that halts travel gains a genuine safety margin from carrying a tool that both traps heat and creates instant cover.
How do you set up the EmergencyTent Tube?
Used as a tube, you climb inside and the metallized surface reflects your own body heat back, slowing the drop in core temperature that leads to hypothermia. When you have two anchor points, stringing a cord along the ridge turns it into an A-frame tent that sheds wind and rain overhead. That choice matters: sometimes you need to conserve heat in place, and sometimes you need cover to keep moving or wait out weather.
How does the EmergencyTent Tube compare to a foil blanket?
A standard foil survival blanket only wraps around you and tears easily. This tube is more capable: it fully encloses you for better heat retention and doubles as a pitched shelter, all in durable metallized polyester rather than flimsy single-use foil. For barely more weight and space than a basic blanket, you carry a far more versatile piece of emergency equipment.

Questions & answers
EmergencyTent Tube FAQ
How does this emergency tent keep you warm?
It is made from heat-reflective metallized polyester that bounces your own body heat back toward you. When you get inside the tube, that reflection slows heat loss and helps protect against hypothermia in cold, wet or windy emergency conditions.
How many people does it shelter?
At 245 x 150 cm (96.5 x 59.1 in) it can shelter one or two people, or one person plus their gear. The generous size gives real coverage whether you use it as a warming tube or pitch it as an A-frame tent.
How much does it weigh?
It weighs just 200 g (7.05 oz) and packs down compactly, so it adds almost nothing to your load. That featherweight makes it easy to keep permanently in a hiking, climbing, cycling or vehicle emergency kit.
Do you need extra equipment to set it up?
To pitch it as an A-frame tent you need a cord strung between two anchor points such as trees or poles, and the cord is not included. As a thermal tube it needs nothing extra; you simply climb inside to trap warmth.
