Product Information

Full details

The Nemo Hornet Osmo 2P Tent is the ideal choice for minimalist backpackers and thru-hikers who demand a balance between ultralight portability and livable interior space. Its primary benefit is the innovative OSMO fabric construction, which offers superior water repellency and structural stability, though users should be mindful that its ultralight materials require careful handling on abrasive terrain to prevent punctures.

FAQs

Does the tent include a footprint?

The tent does not include a footprint; it is sold separately and highly recommended for protecting the floor.

Is this tent suitable for winter camping?

It is designed as a three-season tent and is not recommended for heavy snow loads or extreme winter conditions.

How many people does this tent comfortably sleep?

It is designed to sleep two people, though it is a minimalist design; it is most spacious when used as a roomy one-person shelter.

Can I replace a damaged pole?

Yes, the pole set is standard, and individual sections can often be repaired using a field repair sleeve.

What is the benefit of the OSMO fabric?

OSMO fabric is a poly-nylon blend that features reduced stretch when wet and superior water repellency compared to traditional materials.

Troubleshooting

Tent sags during a rainstorm

The OSMO fabric is designed to resist sag, but if it occurs, check that your guy lines are tensioned properly and the stake points are secure.

Difficulty inserting poles into the grommets

Ensure the poles are fully seated in the hub and that you are starting from the head end of the tent to provide better leverage.

Condensation inside the tent

Keep the vestibule doors partially unzipped to improve airflow and ensure your site selection allows for natural ventilation.

Pros and Cons

Pros

  • Exceptionally low weight for a full-featured 2-person shelter
  • Increased interior headroom due to the unique Flybar design
  • High-performance OSMO fabric is highly water-resistant and durable
  • Convenient dual-entry layout for easy access
  • Easy to pack thanks to the included Divvy Cube sack

Cons

  • Ultralight materials require a footprint to protect the floor from abrasion
  • Inner tent is primarily mesh, which provides excellent ventilation but less wind protection
  • Higher price point reflecting the technical fabric and design features

Setup, Compatibility & Care

To set up the tent, lay the floor flat and assemble the hubbed pole structure. Attach the tent body to the poles using the integrated clips, then clip the Flybar to the top pole sections to expand the head space. Drape the rainfly over the frame, aligning the vestibule doors, and secure the grommets at the base corners. Always use a protective footprint to maintain the integrity of the thin ripstop floor. To clean, shake out loose debris and wash by hand using a mild soap and cold water; never machine wash or dry the tent, and ensure it is completely dry before storing it in the Divvy Cube sack to prevent mildew.
