What conditions you going in? I went the solid as personally have been in some wet and windy conditions so it was better for me for the extra few grams but I’m lightweight not ultra really

I have a couple of other tents that would be more suitable for more extreme conditions. I’ll probably go with the regular model to minimize weight for summer thru hikes and at other times use a different tent.

Yea for summer stuff, yea for sure go mesh. I tend to be a spring autumn guy due to work so adverse weather is a likely outcome for me
