It's market day and it's raining. You're scrambling to keep everything dry under your tent, and the tent weights that came with your tent? They're falling apart at the seams, leaking sand, the Velcro is coming apart, and they're crumpled in a growing puddle of water.
A lot of popup canopy tents and accessories are only designed for ideal conditions—sunny skies, calm wind, dry ground. But if you rely on popup tents for your work, you don't want to worry about your setup when the weather turns.
Burro is set on changing this, designing gear that considers every aspect of your day under a canopy, from clear skies to stormy weather. We're tired of seeing "outdoor" gear that doesn't actually hold up in the elements. This frustration has led us to be meticulous in our product design to ensure Burro gear stays by your side season after season.
For our flagship product, The Burro Tent Weight, here's what we've done to make sure this tent weight actually earns its keep as outdoor gear you can trust.
1) Leak-proof bag
One of the most common gripes we hear about tent weights, specifically sand bags, is how easily they fall apart. Here's what we've done to make sure your bags keep holding sand securely year after year:
Strong seams: Every seam on our bags is double stitched to ensure long-term durability.
Durable fabric: We use a 600D outdoor grade fabric to reduce the likelihood of tears or punctures.
2) Anti-mold fabric
Mold in tent weights is a real problem and a pain to deal with, so we built our bags from a water and mold resistant breathable fabric. It wicks water away from the outside, while still allowing it to evaporate from the inside. This reduces the likelihood that moisture gets locked inside the bag, thereby eliminating the most likely cause of mold.
3) Stay-dry design
There are several benefits to the specific way in which the Burro Tent Weights attach to the leg of your tent. In addition to being the easiest tent weights to attach, this patent-pending design suspends the bags off the ground, keeping them out of puddles and mud. Sitting in puddles for hours on-end is a sure-fire way to degrade fabric faster over time. So this design keeps your bags cleaner, drier, and lasting longer over the years.
4) Strong grip no matter what
The Burro Tent Weight uses a friction clamp to grip the leg of your tent. We experimented with over 100 configurations of this grip, adjusting dimensions and materials. What we landed on is a thick rubberized coating over a steel rod that we've tested in every weather condition, from pouring rain to freezing ice, and we can say confidently there's no weather that'll shake the grip of this tent weight.
So if you're looking for a tent weight that'll last with you season after season, through rain, snow, wind & ice—outdoor gear that's actually designed for all aspects of the outdoors, look no further.
We're so confident in the durability of The Burro Tent Weights that we back them with a 5-year warranty plus a risk-free 30-day money-back guarantee. If you don't love them, send them back.
This year, hold it down with The Burro Tent Weights.
