I’ve used multiple Vaude tents in the past, from ultra lightweight bivvies to more substantial shelters, and I have always been impressed by the German brands’ premium-quality gear, so I was really looking forward to taking the Hogan SUL 1–2 Person tent out for some overnight escapades.
I’d already heard good things about the Hogan, and Vaude’s proven heritage plus the quality of the materials employed in this shelter strongly suggested it would be one of the best backpacking tents on the market, but you don’t really know until you give it a proper go. So that’s what I did, on the wilds of Dartmoor in late autumn, at the tail end of the tent’s comfort zone.
