About this product
The Big Agnes Tiger Wall UL Solution Dye 1-Person Footprint is a purpose-built ground cloth designed to protect the floor of the Tiger Wall UL tent during backpacking trips. Constructed from nylon ripstop fabric with a dual polyurethane and silicone coating, it delivers a floor waterproofness rating of 1200mm, forming a reliable barrier against moisture and abrasion from rough terrain. At just 113g, it adds minimal weight to a pack, making it a practical choice for weight-conscious backpackers. The footprint attaches to the tent via buckles, keeping it securely positioned throughout the night. Its solution-dye construction integrates color directly into the fibers rather than applying it on the surface, which generally improves UV and fade resistance over time. Finished in gray and manufactured in the Republic of Korea, this footprint carries the SKU 6012-236 and is a straightforward way to extend the lifespan of the tent floor on repeated outings.

What people are saying
Reviewers consistently praise the Big Agnes Tiger Wall UL Solution Dye 1-Person Footprint for its impressively low weight (around 4 oz) and its ability to unlock the "Fast Fly" setup, letting users pitch just the fly and footprint for an even lighter, minimalist shelter. The solution-dyed fabric earns repeated credit for UV resistance and a more sustainable manufacturing process. Most reviewers consider the footprint a near-essential purchase given the tent floor's thin, abrasion-prone material. The most common criticism is that the footprint covers only the tent floor and not the vestibule area, which some users find limiting compared to competitors. A few note the added cost on top of an already expensive tent system.
