Why this product
Why the Tuff Stuff Alpha Clamshell (Gray)?
The Alpha Clamshell in gray is identical to the black version in every specification. The gray finish reflects slightly more heat than black, which can make a small difference in warm conditions. At 176 lbs with 420D fabric, it is a basic budget clamshell. Choose between this and the black purely based on color preference and how much sun exposure your tent receives.
