The North Face Stormbreak 1 Footprint – Water-Resistant Ground Cover for 1-Person Tent (Castor Grey)

Overview

The The North Face Stormbreak 1 Footprint is a purpose-built ground cover designed to fit the Stormbreak 1 One-Person Camping Tent. It adds a protective layer between your tent and the terrain, helping to keep the tent floor dry, clean, and ready for a comfortable night under the stars. At its core, this footprint is lightweight, portable, and easy to pack, so you can focus on the adventure rather than gear concerns.

Crafted with care, this footprint uses 75D polyester taffeta with a 1500 mm PU coating and a non-PFC Durable Water Repellent (DWR) finish. The fabric combination is chosen to resist moisture and abrasion while remaining compact enough to stow in a small backpack or tent bag. The result is a practical addition that travels well and deploys quickly when you arrive at camp.

Why it matters

Even when you’re mindful of where you pitch, the ground can surprise you with damp patches, gravel, or rough patches that wear on tent floors over time. This footprint provides a dedicated barrier to protect the tent’s floor and helps maintain a dry, comfortable interior environment when conditions are less than perfect.

• Tailored fit: Designed specifically for the Stormbreak 1 tent for a snug, secure footprint.
• Floor protection: Shields against moisture, cold, and abrasive ground to help prolong floor life.
• Water-resistant design: PU coating and DWR finish help keep moisture at bay during uncertain weather.
• Sustainable badge: Qualifies for The North Face exploration badge when materials meet the brand’s sustainability criteria (75%+ recycled or responsibly sourced materials by weight).
• Low weight & compact
• Fly-only versatility: Suitable for fly-only pitching with many compatible models, expanding setup options.

Practical uses

Picture a damp forest floor after a light drizzle, or a meadow with soft, damp turf. The footprint sits under your Stormbreak 1 tent, creating a dry microclimate inside the shelter and a clean base for gear and sleeping essentials. It also travels well on longer trips where every ounce matters and storage space is at a premium.

• Wet or uneven sites: Keeps your tent floor dry and protected on damp ground.
• Compact travel: Lightweight addition that stores away without bulk.
• Fly-only pitching: Useful when you only need a protective layer for the footprint area.
