putting here as methinks these may generate some philosophical "discussion" …

FieldCandy tents are absurd. Their prices are through the roof (most start at $618), their pup-tent structure likely wouldn’t survive a moderate windstorm, and they seem to think that shock-cord poles are the cutting edge of technology. But let’s not kid ourselves: These aren’t tents for the Himalaya (or even the Catskills). Nor are they for hardcore users. What is they are is for people with a sense of humor (and too much money). They’re fun, silly, creative, goofy, and absurd — none of which are qualities you’ll find in the mainstream outdoor industry and all of which are a breath of fresh air. And whether you find yourself laughing with them or at them, laughing is good.
