  1. The problems with windows in a lavvu lies in the fact that its a single pole tent so relies on the geometric shape for its amazing strengh
    If you added plastic windows id imagine they would eventually tear at the seams

    Your not alone in thinking the green ones are two dark inside thats why i run a ring of solar powered fairy lights on the inside that are lit all night

    The other option is to buy a tan coloured one as they let more light through and create a nice atmosphere

    The last time i camped next to a tan canvas lavvu i had a great sillouete of the couple in it making love

  4. Or i could go against the mainstream flow and make myself one then sell a pattern and guide for a small fee so others could make there own and stick it to the man

  14. lol let me know the solution you find

    I love assesing outdoor kit


    Any fool can be stylish yet uncomfortable

    Lol im a bit weird when it comes to outdoor kit
    but then again im normaly the one whos fed waterd and asleep in comfort with just a 60 litre ruck sack and my sleeping bag takes 20 litres of space
     
  15. I had the same problem as I wanted something big so I can sleep the kids in etc but found they arnt cheap for what you get, so I've brought a trailer tent costs abit but well worth it the way I see it as there is more space in the van and if the vans of the road I use are normal car and still go camping [​IMG][​IMG]
     
  16. Seen a couple of these over the weekend, one had the full kit and kaboodle fitted. Stove, flue coming out of the side etc.

    They looked well cool.
