Gucci flogging £2,650 tent and matching sleeping bag for an extra £865

FASHION house Gucci is flogging a £2,560 tent and matching sleeping bag for an extra £865.

The Italian designer’s outdoor gear is the perfect equipment for fashion-conscious campers intent on making a statement as they sleep under the stars.

It’s made in conjunction with foul weather clothing maker The North Face.
Gucci says online of its shelter: “This nylon tent is part of The North Face x Gucci collection, a collaboration connecting two brands with similar history and values in celebration of the spirit of exploration.

“The North Face has a rich archive pushing innovation and breaking the rules in creating styles with unique and distinguishing design details.

“As a brand that has embraced inclusivity, beginning with supporting women to achieve results in a male-dominated pursuit, its mission for its creations is to help adventurers make physical discoveries but also discover their self while doing so.

“The cross-category collection for men and women includes ready to wear, soft accessories, luggage and shoes.”

It features the branding of both firms and comes with guy-ropes, stakes and a bag.

The pricey sleeping bag is stuffed with featherdown and has a hood and cinch cord so the user is toasty warm inside the £865 bag.

But for those who can’t afford a designer feel to their camping, specialist firm Go Outdoors has similar-sized tents for as little as £99 and sleeping bags for £12.
