Well, in this case, you give the public what they want. New for 2023, the Octagon now has an optional front extension, something that fans have been requesting for years.With that said, the shape of the tent is perfect for storing gear. Regardless of how much gear you bring, the single-room tent has a design that is always spacious. As you would expect from one of the world’s major camping brands, the Coleman collection of tents is pretty extensive. But, for the last few years one model has stood out from the crowd… simply because it is so different. Their other competitors like REI, Eureka!, Marmot, Kelty etc. now outsource their manufacturing overseas to cut down production costs. The hinged door in the front means you aren’t forced to catch any flapping materials to get in and out and feels more like an actual door. It also makes it easy to transfer your gear into the tent after tent up. The floor of the octagon 8 has been given a texture that helps in the water repellency and keeps you dry even during rainy nights.
