What material is the overwrap made from?
It is constructed from 20,000mm hydrostatic EX material in a khaki brown color.
Can I still use the vents on my EXO Shelter with the overwrap fitted?

Is this overwrap compatible with other shelter brands?

How should I clean the overwrap?
Clean the material with a damp cloth and mild soap if necessary. Always ensure it is dry before storing to prevent damage.
Troubleshooting
Overwrap does not fit snugly
Ensure the EXO Shelter is correctly set up and taut. Adjust the pegging points of the overwrap to achieve a tight fit. Check that you are using the correct overwrap for your specific EXO Shelter model.
Condensation is still present
Maximize ventilation by using the shelter's vents and the overwrap's access vents. Ensure all vents are open as much as possible, especially during temperature changes. Avoid bringing excessively wet gear inside the shelter.
Zips are stiff or difficult to operate
Ensure no fabric is caught in the zip. Apply a silicone-based lubricant or zipper treatment to the zip teeth. Gently work the zip back and forth to loosen it.
Water pooling around the base
Ensure the overwrap is firmly pegged down, creating a good seal with the ground. If possible, dig a small trench around the base where water tends to pool to help it drain away.
