A versatile and portable tent with bed having an inner tent, a framework for supporting the inner tent, a base for supporting the framework; and cushions positioned inside the base with the inner tent fastened to the base and the framework positioned inside sleeves of the inner tent. The base has two shells that can move between an open configuration and a closed configuration in which the inner tent, framework, and cushions, and any other tent component is completely housed inside the waterproof base cover. The tent is sufficiently lightweight that a single user can place the tent on the roof rack of a vehicle, in the bed of a truck, or on the ground. The tent can also be mounted on a platform to increase the versatility of the positioning or placement of the tent.

A shelter system may include a roof structure with a hub structure, a plurality of roof pole structures connectable to the hub structure and positionable to extend outwardly from the hub structure, and a fabric panel configured to be at least partially suspended from the roof pole structures. The fabric panel may include a reversible pocket. The roof structure is configurable between a stowed configuration and a deployed configuration. When the roof structure is in the stowed configuration, the hub structure and at least a portion of each roof pole structure may be positioned in the reversible pocket. When the roof structure is in the deployed configuration, the hub structure may be positioned above or outside of the reversible pocket. The shelter system may further include a rainfly that is positionable over the fabric panel with a gap between the rainfly and the fabric panel for airflow.

A tent apparatus and method of manufacture are described herein. The tent apparatus may comprise a tent body, a frame, and/or other components. The tent body may include a first portion configured to be substantially enclosed within the bed of the pickup truck in an as-used mode of the tent apparatus, and a second portion that extends from the first portion such that the second portion is exposed to an environment above a bed of a pickup truck in the as-used mode. The frame may be integrally coupled to the tent body, and configured to articulate between a closed position and an open position. The frame may comprise a central hub coupled to the tent body at a central coupling point; and support members that extend from the central hub to coupling points on the tent body to integrate the frame with the tent body.

A closed cell foam sleeping pad has a foldable configuration and can be folded accordion style. The sleeping pad's top and bottom surfaces have a plurality of protrusions and a plurality of indentations, wherein the protrusions and indentations are arranged at different locations on different but adjacent foldable sections of the sleeping pad body such that when the pad is folded accordion style, the protrusions nest into the indentations perfectly to give the sleeping pad a smaller packing density while at the same time providing the protrusions for added user comfort.
