Premium Materials and Manufacturing

For over 30 years, James Baroud has been designing premium roof top tents recognized worldwide. All components are sourced in Europe to ensure uncompromising quality.

Hard shells are manufactured in Milan, Italy, while the technical fabrics come from the Netherlands and are also used in aerospace applications. Seams are stitched using German Gütermann threads, and each tent is hand-assembled in Portugal. The result is proven reliability backed by a 5-year warranty.

Fiberglass Hard Shell Construction

The four-layer fiberglass shell is built to handle the harshest conditions. It resists snow, rain, strong winds, and intense heat. The gelcoat provides long-lasting UV protection, even after years of exposure.

An integrated solar fan in this spacious hard shell roof top tent ensures constant airflow, effectively reducing condensation day and night. In addition, self-locking latches increase safety during off-road travel.

Breathable Aluminized Fabric

The patented aluminized fabric reflects solar heat while remaining fully breathable. This keeps the interior cool in summer and limits moisture during cold nights.

The 180° panoramic openings of the roof top tent provide excellent visibility, while durable mosquito screens protect against insects. Silent, rubberized zippers complete the premium setup.

Comfort and Integrated Features of the hard shell roof top tent

The Space S includes a 65 mm high-density mattress for restful sleep, even on long stays. Interior storage areas, a rechargeable portable LED light, and a sturdy ladder complete the setup for hassle-free use.

Compatibility and Uses of the hard shell roof top tent

The James Baroud Space S is compatible with most standard roof bars and racks (typical dynamic load rating of 75 kg). It also works seamlessly with James Baroud awnings, annexes, and 4-season insulation kits.

Finally, it integrates perfectly into an off-grid setup with a diesel heater, solar panels, or portable power stations, whether mounted on vans, SUVs, or overland trucks.

Practical Tips for Canada

For optimal use, make sure the vehicle is level on soft ground and activate the solar fan in humid conditions. On road trips, use the interior space to free up room inside the vehicle. For long expeditions, add an anti-condensation mat for maximum comfort.
