<span style=”font-weight: 400;”>I’m wondering if someone here can identify this particular tent? I think it was being manufactured in the 80s:</span>

<span style=”font-weight: 400;”>These pics are from two docs featuring Stephen Pern, </span><i><span style=”font-weight: 400;”>Down the Spine of Japan</span></i><span style=”font-weight: 400;”> and </span><i><span style=”font-weight: 400;”>Hooks</span></i><span style=”font-weight: 400;”>. Both good if you like (very) long walks and English eccentricity.</span>

Thanks for taking a look!

Thanks Peter!

Now that I know what to search for, looks like a Saunders Jetpacker. Appears that you’re right about it being discontinued: https://www.ukcampsite.co.uk/tents/p/Saunders-Jetpacker/4116

Retro Racing Character, Built for Everyday WearRetro Racing Character, Built for Everyday WearDrawing on the colorful racing chronographs of the 1960s and '70s, the RS1 Rally pairs vintage motorsport style with the durability expected from a Vaer. Its 40mm case houses a Japanese VK63 meca-quartz chronograph movement, complete with stopwatch functionality and an integrated tachymeter scale, while contrasting subdials give the watch its distinctive retro character. Sapphire crystal, 100 meters of water resistance, a screwdown crown, and strong BGW9 lume make it far more than a style piece. At under $300, it's an easy pick for the car enthusiast or chronograph fan.See RS1 Rally Chronograph at Vaer
