Meet the Featherweight Champion of 4-Season Roof Top Tents

At just 110 lbs, the Aspen Lite XL is redefining what a true 4-season clamshell tent can be. Built for both rugged trails and urban streets, this rooftop tent makes it easy to switch between your weekday commute and weekend off-grid escapes.

Its ultra-lightweight build means you don’t need a crew to mount or dismount - it’s a one-person job. Whether it’s a full-blown overland expedition or a quick getaway, this tent flexes with your lifestyle.

Camp in Seconds, Not in Sweat!

Say goodbye to the long, cranky setup routines. The Aspen Lite's rapid-deploy system turns your vehicle into a basecamp in seconds - literally. Just pop it open, and you’re ready to roll into relaxation mode.

No more fiddling with complicated pole setups or battling fabric in the wind. Just you, your rig, and an instant home under the stars. It’s the kind of simplicity that gets you out there more and keeps you out there longer!

Built by FSR In Collaboration with Talon Sei

In the development process for the Aspen Lite, Freespirit Recreation teamed up with Outdoor Enthusiast and YouTube Creator Talon Sei. The result is an ultralight, durable, and very serviceable Hard Shell Roof Top Tent that will last you for years to come. Despite the low weight, Freespirit Recreation has not compromised the tent size, and the Aspen Lite Clamshell Tent is the perfect size for two adults or a couple with adventurous souls.

The Aspen Lite is Available in two sizes. The larger Aspen Lite XL measures 57.5" in width, and the smaller Aspen Lite Standard measures 49.5" in width - both come in a sleek FSR Black. The tent is ultra-easy to operate and can be fully pitched in as little as 30 seconds. That is extremely convenient if you need to pitch your tent in heavy rain or don’t want to waste time struggling with complicated ground tent setups.

Extremely Spacious With Best-In-Class Headspace

One of the best features of the Aspen Lite is its spacious interior, with plenty of room for sleeping, sitting, and storing gear like sleeping bags inside. The newly designed roof pocket system is now partly made from clear material. This is perfect for a tablet or a phone if you want a movie night while camping. With the electrical pass-throughs on the side of the Aspen Lite, it is easy to feed cables through the sidewall if needed. These are even big enough to fit a diesel heater if you go camping in extreme temperatures.

The increased pitch angle of the roof makes the tent open up wider, giving you significantly more headspace compared to other Clamshell Roof Top Tents on the market. The rear opening of the tent has been specifically designed so you will experience an unobstructed view from the inside, making this the perfect spot to hang out and enjoy those awesome views Mother Nature throws at you.

With the Aspen Lite’s three large bug mesh-covered doors and windows, you will have plenty of natural light and ventilation to further enhance your outdoor experience. The improved top ventilation ports are now bug mesh covered and will significantly reduce condensation inside the tent, meaning that the days of waking up in a damp and moist tent are over.

Ready To Face The Elements With Increased Insulation

Like its bigger brother, the Evolution V2 Hard Shell Roof Top Tent, the Aspen Lite Clamshell Tent comes out of the box with the breathable Tri-Layer waterproof Rip-Stop fabric. This is also fitted to the ceiling of the Aspen Lite for increased insulation and is designed to withstand the elements and keep you warm and dry. The breathable Tri-Layer construction is sonic-welded, moisture-wicking, and Poly-Cotton filled, meaning that it works very similarly to your premium down jacket, keeping you warmer in the winters and cooler in the summers. Should you be unfortunate to cut or burn a hole in the fabric, the new design makes this tent more serviceable to extend durability and reduce its environmental footprint.

Weatherproof Guardian

Mother Nature can be unpredictable, but the Aspen Lite Rooftop Tent ensures you stay cozy and dry, regardless of her whims. Crafted with a cutting-edge breathable Tri-Layer waterproof RipStop fabric and reinforced with an aluminum frame construction, this tent stands as a sturdy fortress against the elements. Rain, wind, or shine, your camping experience remains undisturbed, allowing you to revel in the beauty of the great outdoors without a worry in sight.

Superior Comfort

Restful nights and comfort are vital when it comes to camping, and the Aspen Lite delivers here as well with its AirCore inflatable mattress that can be adjusted to accommodate how soft or hard you want it to be. This gives you an extremely comfortable and supportive sleeping experience so you can wake up refreshed and energized for the next day’s adventures. 

Furthermore, the telescopic ladder and shoe bags offer added convenience, making your stay in the wild a breeze.

freespirit-recreation-aspen-lite-xl-hard-shell-roof-top-tent-black-open-interior-view-of-dimmable-led-light-strip

Dimmable LED Light

Aspen Lite's clever design includes two large windows that invite natural light to flood your cozy haven and a generously sized entry door that offers hassle-free access from any angle.

For the dark hours of the night, an extra treat is the built-in dimmable LED light. This is convenient for setting the right mood but also provides plenty of light to read, play games, or plan tomorrow’s hiking route. It will also serve you well if you need to get up at night or if you need to pack your stuff before dawn.

Adventure Awaits

Whether you're embarking on an expedition deep into the backcountry or simply taking a quick pit stop on your journey, the Aspen Lite Rooftop Tent guarantees an experience that is not only comfortable and convenient but also safe and enjoyable. Embrace the freedom to camp instantly wherever your heart desires, knowing that your rooftop sanctuary is always at your beck and call.

Its spacious interior, comfort, and versatility make it an investment you won't regret. Don't miss out on the opportunity to make your camping experience unforgettable. Order your Aspen Lite today and start enjoying the great outdoors like never before!
