MSR Elixir 3 Hiking Tent

G'day Shinead,

Unfortunately, we can't double-check this at the moment, as we don't have any new stock yet. As far as we know though, the 2019 models changed back to factory sealed seams, so we assume that the next batch arriving in Australia will be seam sealed. 

G'day Gary,

I believe I responded to you a few days ago, but yes I can confirm that we are selling the most recent model with the red door panel.

G'day Gary,

Yes we're selling the most recent model, the Elixir was updated to include the red door panel back in 2018.

G'day Kelvin,

The Elixir 3 and Fortress 3P are both going to be good options for your Victorian Alpine adventures in the shoulder seasons. They've got some pretty similar features, with similar weight materials and pole so they're a fairly close comparison. The Elixir has a slight better waterhead rating on the floor, but they have the waterhead rating on the fly. Internally the Elixir 3 does have a little more mesh so will likely provide a little more ventilation, however, the Fortress 3P does have a dual-layer door so you can open it up for ventilation, or close it right up if you need it. You get a similar amount of space in both tents, the Elixir a little shorter and wider, and the Fortress a little narrower and longer, which might be useful to consider if you're on the tall side. Overall we think both tents are a great option, and it's will probably come to down to budget and personal preference. 

G'day Paul,

No, we don't sorry mate. The MSR tent range is only currently available in the colours you see on our website.
