Front Runner 3 Person Roof Top Tent
Take a look at this Front Runner roof top tent. If you are someone that regularly goes on overlanding trips or would even like to take a couple of days off to go camping this is a perfect roof top tent for you. This is a 3 person roof top tent which is one of the lightest roof top tents on the market.

- Water-repellant 260g 600d poly/cotton ripstop body
- Lightest roof top tent on the market, only 43kgs/93 lbs
- Includes a 2" thick high-density foam mattress with a washable cover
- Includes ladder made of extruded aluminium, stainless steel, and nylon-6

A 3-season camping tent, the Front Runner Feather-lite can withstand harshest weather conditions such as rain, heat, and heavy winds. This RTT originated in South Africa, where durability tests are conducted, and proudly, the Front Runner tent conquered them all. With canvas materials such as Oxford 400D, a polyester fabric that's impenetrable by water, and gives off that nice, continuous airflow, the Feather-lite can surely provide you peace of mind when outdoor camping.
The Front Runner tents body is made out of water-repellent 260g 600d poly/cotton ripstop and has an aluminum sheeting and foam core side rail tent base. It comes with mounting tracks that can be mounted front-to-back or side-to-side depending on your needs and even the universal mounting plates and all necessary hardware is included.
Lightest Roof Top Tent
It holds the record for the lightest roof top tent, the lightest soft shell tent to be exact in the market weighing only 93 lbs, the Feather-lite contributes little to less fuel consumption. This also enables the roof tent to be set up by a single person in a matter of minutes. Pair it with a Front Runner Roof Rack, and absolutely, this combination will deliver you outstanding performance and a worry-free adventure!
This Frontrunner featherlite roof top tent is extremely easy to set up. You only need 5 minutes to do so, even less if you get a hang of it over time. This light roof top tent comes with a comfortable high-density foam mattress (6cm / 2.25" thick) with washable moisture & mildew-resistant polyester oxford fabric cover. Pair that with an insuated foundation of this Front Runner roof top tent and you get an environment in which you can fall asleep like a baby and get rest for the upcoming day.
It has a number of features such as storage pockets where you can store your shoes or other camping supplies or even toiletries, a Sky Window that lets in extra sunlight during the day and is perfect for night-sky viewing, and exemplary ventilation that reduces condensation during day or night. This roof tent also features panoramic windows that let you enjoy the scenery around you. Adding the Annex is highly recommended.
Thanks to its sliding aluminum ladder you and your fellow campers have an easy way of going in and out of your Front Runner roof top tent. They have a weight limit of 180 kg or 400 lb which is more than enough to support even two people at the same time. However, we do not recommend that more than one person uses the ladder at a time as it is not safe.
The great thing about this Front Runner tent ladder is that it folds and is packed away inside the tent so it does not take up extra space inside your vehicle. Also, another thing that you should keep in mind is that the ladder can only go as high as 2m. So if you do install the tent higher than that you should acquire a tent extension ladder.
Why the Front Runner Roof Top Tent is Perfect for Budget-Conscious Overlanders
At 93 lbs and under $1,500, the Front Runner Feather-Lite Roof Top Tent opens up rooftop camping to smaller vehicles and tighter budgets without sacrificing the essentials.
93 Pounds Changes Everything
At just 93 lbs, the Front Runner Roof Top Tent is one of the lightest soft-shell tents available. That's 50-80 lbs lighter than traditional rooftop tents, which means better fuel economy (1-2 MPG saved), improved handling on technical terrain, and compatibility with smaller SUVs like Subaru Crosstreks or Toyota RAV4s with dynamic roof ratings around 110-150 lbs.
The low 7.87-inch profile reduces wind resistance dramatically, keeping highway driving quieter and more efficient. Your vehicle stays composed instead of feeling top-heavy on off-camber trails.
Budget-Friendly Without Cutting Critical Corners
The Front Runner Roof Top Tent costs roughly half what premium brands charge. You're getting quality materials: 400D Oxford fabric that's waterproof and UV-resistant, durable YKK zippers, aluminum poles, and a functional 2.25-inch mattress. The tent sleeps two adults comfortably with 87" x 55" interior dimensions.
The trade-off? Initial assembly takes 2-3 hours (bolting rails, attaching ladder system). Once assembled, setup takes 5 minutes. For half the price of premium competitors, that's fair. The optional annex adds valuable space for changing, gear storage, or weather protection.
Built From South African Overland Experience
Front Runner started in South Africa, where overlanding means serious business across challenging terrain. That heritage shows in practical design: reinforced stitching at stress points, proper ventilation to prevent condensation, and a low-profile design tested across African deserts and mountain passes.
The Front Runner Roof Top Tent pairs perfectly with Front Runner roof rack systems, creating an integrated setup. Add an awning and storage boxes for a complete adventure platform at thousands less than premium-only options.
Ideal For First-Time Buyers or Smaller Rigs
The Front Runner Roof Top Tent makes perfect sense if you're new to rooftop camping without wanting massive investment, running a smaller vehicle that can't handle 150+ lb tents, or building a budget overland rig.
The mattress is adequate at 2.25 inches (some owners add foam toppers), and it's designed for weekend warriors and regular camping rather than extreme expeditions. If you want the absolute easiest setup or most luxurious materials, there are pricier options. But for a functional, reliable rooftop tent without the premium price tag, the Front Runner delivers.
