Hilleberg Unna Custom inner, anyone interested?

[Stephen M]

Good evening folks,

I came across the below Unna inner that Ookworks made but is unable to reproduce, I am talking to some cottage manufactures to see if they can produce something similar.

Is this something folk would be interested in?

P.s. I am willing to send my Unna off to be used as a template.

I'd be interested in seeing what they could come up with. I have the optional net inner tent also but there is no real weight savings with it.

[Stephen M]

Hi Richard,

I am in the same the same boat with the mesh inner. I am hoping if we get enough interest we would get a 600gram semi solid inner made up.

Fingers crossed.

Maybe it's the late/early hour but I'm looking at an inner consisting of a cuben floor with walls of lower half syl, upper half net?
18 hour work days just seem to scramble me.
Thanks!

[Brad Hawkins]

I really like that. I'm interested just depends on specs/price.

[Stephen M]

I hear you on the crazy.work days Steofan :-)

A Cuben floor would definitley be good, what weight of cuben are you thinmore folf?

I myself would be more so thinking of using ripstop for breathabililty, with the same height bathtub as the stock inner. I must pitch the inner and have a look.

I would send my Unna off to whichever company we went with. The labor/material costs on the prototype may be high, so the more folk we can get on board would spead the cost.

P.s. posting on a phone so ignore any typos.

Hi Brad,

I was typing when you posted. I probably would not want
to spend more than 200$ on this, or 250$ at most.

Another option would be a mesh inner for 125$ and get it modified.

[Stephen M]

I just weighed the Unna inner and it is 655g (23.46oz) and the Ookworks inner using 1.75oz cuben floor is 330g (11.64oz)

[Jim Jessop]

Out of interest Stephen, what do the Unna outer and poles weigh?

Thanks.

[Stephen M]

Hi Jim,

Hope all is well in England?

The outer is 895g and poles by themselves are 424g, the pole bag with spare
Pole section is 49g.

My scales may be a small bit off.

Cheers,

Stephen

[Jim Jessop]

Yes all well in blighty except for a cold.

Wow that's quite a bit…….good to know. Thanks Stephen, much appreciated!

[Stephen M]

Hope you shake the cold Jim.

The outer is bit of porker indeed, a good 200g heavier than my Sl3.

[Stephen M]

Got a stock mesh inner, it weighs 635g.
I will try it out on a trip and may get it modified, so going to scrap the idea of a custom one.

[Stephen M]

The mesh inner is very nice, I cannot decide if I want to modify it.

[Hunter]

Curious if anything ever happened with this? Looking for a mesh option for my Unna. Hilleberg said they wouldn’t be available for at least another year.

[Stephen M]

Nah, moved on to a new tent the next year :-)
