MSR  (Mountain  Safety  Research®),  the  Seattle-­based  manufacturer  of  standard-­setting,  high-­performance  outdoorequipment  since  1969,  today  announced  it  has  won  an  OutDoor  Industry  Award  2013  for  the  new  MSR®  Hubba  HubbaNX  tent.  

An  international  jury  of  design  experts  selected  the  Hubba  Hubba  NX—the  flagship  tent  from  MSR’s  new  Hubba  NXCollection—for  its  innovative  design  and  next-­generation  technologies.  The  Hubba  Hubba  NX  tent  was  the  winner  of  theOutDoor  Industry  Award  in  the  “camping”  category.

“We  are  extremely  honored  to  be  recognized  by  the  OutDoor  Industry  Award  Jury  for  the  new  Hubba  Hubba  NX  tent,”  saidDale  Karacostas,  director  of  MSR  Shelter.  “The  Hubba  Hubba  tent  has  been  a  bestseller  since  it  was  first  introduced  in  2004and  we’ve  improved  on  that  design  with  the  new  Hubba  Hubba  NX.  This  next  generation  Hubba  Hubba  is  significantlylighter,  packs  smaller  and  offers  great  livability.  It’s  guaranteed  to  become  a  new  favorite  among  backpackers  and  trekkersworldwide.”

Weighing  just  1.54  kg,  the  freestanding,  two-­person  Hubba  Hubba  NX  tent  is  now  over  10%  lighter  than  theprevious  version  and  takes  advantage  of  a  unified  pole  system  for  easy  set-­up  and  increased  head  and  shoulderroom  for  two  people  to  sit  comfortably.  A  new  color  scheme  of  classic  MSR  red  at  the  bottom  and  light  grey  inthe  body  and  rainfly  maximizes  natural  light  within  the  tent,  making  the  shelter  a  pleasant  space  to  stayregardless  of  weather  conditions.  Additional  tent  features  include  convenient,  color-­coded  stakeout  loops  andclip-­webbing  for  easing  set-­up,  two  doors  and  two  large,  adjustable  vestibules  for  easy  access  and  plenty  ofgear  storage.  Mesh  canopy  windows  allow  for  stargazing  and  excellent  ventilation,  and  the  included  side-­loading  compression  stuff  sack  allows  the  tent  to  pack  up  impressively  small.

MSR’s  award-­winning  Hubba  Hubba  NX  tent  will  be  displayed  at  the  Outdoor  Trade  Show  in  Stoneleigh  Park,Warwickshire  in  September,  and  will  be  available  for  purchase  in  stores  by  January  2014.  RecommendedRetail  Price  is  £335.00  in  the  United  Kingdom,  and  in  €400.00  Ireland.
