Weather-Resistant Build For Every Season
From blistering summer heat to cold, windy nights, this awning is engineered to perform in a wide range of conditions. Its 600D waterproof Oxford fabric features a gel-coated silver lining that blocks up to 85% of UV rays and 95% of visible light, giving you serious protection in extreme environments. A waterproof rating of 3000mm ensures rain simply beads and rolls off, while the UV50++ rating safeguards both skin and gear underneath. The sturdy aluminum frame resists corrosion and deformation, ensuring long-term durability. With proper guy lines and leg deployment, the system holds firm in winds up to 25 mph, so you can confidently use it in unpredictable terrain or during sudden weather shifts.
Integrated LED Lighting For Night Use
When the sun sets, the adventure doesn’t have to stop. A built-in 3-color LED light strip runs along the awning frame, offering customizable illumination with just a touch. Switch between white, warm, and ambient tones, and long-press to adjust brightness—perfect for cooking, reading, or relaxing under the stars. The light system is powered via a standard 12V connection and is pre-wired for quick installation. Whether you’re staying up late with friends or setting up in the early morning hours, this LED system adds a premium, functional upgrade to your off-grid setup. No more fumbling with flashlights or headlamps—just clean, reliable lighting whenever you need it.

Once installed, setup takes just minutes—unfold the canopy, extend the four integrated legs, and you're ready to roll.

The entire unit folds into a compact, aerodynamic form when closed, making it ideal for daily driving as well as long-distance travel.

Let customers speak for us
The mounts work perfect with the truck bed rack I have on. Thank you for the excellent line of communication. You guys never kept me in the dark. I will ordering from you guys again.
I was wondering if you are able to sell just two extra mounts or do they just come in a set of six.
The color was even better in person. For well, looks well made and was easy to fold up and put into the carrying case. There was a bunch of colored plastic pieces from manufacturing on the mat, but I was able to vacuum it right up so be careful pulling it out.
Although it took a little extra time the delay very of my OVS Truck Topper was great. Good price too!
Fully engaged with customer, helped me get the crossbar I needed on time!
Product worked out great for my rack setup.
Order was delayed due to manufacturer delays, but my questions were answered and expectations on timing reset along the way. Cross bars were in perfect condition and work great!
I was in the market for a 3/4 length roof rack for my 4Runner as I wanted an upgrade from the OEM rails but still wanted to retain a somewhat OEM look. I am very happy that I went with the Sherpa Needle. It is a high quality rack with the best install method out of all the racks I looked at. I like that it is designed so you don’t have to deal with a mess of silicone when mounting. It is also nice that the fairing sits just above the roof instead of resting on it so that the paint does not get scratched. I was worried about wind noise because of this but I am happy to say there is no added wind noise at all.
I am also glad I purchased this rack through Live More Outside. I shopped around and they had the best pricing considering I was able to get a discount code, shipping was free, and they don’t charge sales tax. Shipping was prompt and I received the rack sooner than I thought I would.
Overall I am very pleased with this purchase and I will definitely come back to Live More Outside as I continue to build my rig.
By far one of the best customer service! Nathan has been a huge help on any questions and quick to respond! Live more outside is top notch. We are getting ready to hit our first outing with our new RTT. Cant wait to test it out. We also just purchased a 270 awning. I found one on another website but wanted to keep my business with live more outside. Nathan price matched and beat their price! We will continue to keep our business with this company!
The tent was delivered in a crate, seems to have been protected well and there was no damage to it at all. No missing parts or anything like that. The fabric seems heavy duty and operates as expected. The mattress is better than expected. I like how the rainfly poles fit as it doesn't hit my cab when installed. super happy with the purchase.
I emailed with concerns of tracking info and the owner emailed me back immediately. He eso always quick to respond and even updated me with when the package was confirmed to be in transit.
I shoooed for my roof top tent for weeks I was lucky to find that live more outside had a reduced price in too of an end of the year sale for the exact model tent I was considering. LMO neat everyone’s price. Highly recommend.
I ordered the Alpha rack for my Silverado, I had been searching for a low profile rack that would fit my topper and provide a little less drag with my tent. This came with all the hardware to customize the hight and was relatively easy to set up and install on my truck.
It looks good, has room for upgrades and lights down the road as needed and functions perfect with the RTT. Could not be happier.
Needed to order a new tent for a preplanned outting after mine was stolen. Upon order, I expressed my need to receive the item in a timely manner and Nathan took that personally!! Received the tent in perfect condition and on time to make it out with my group! Appreciate the support as well as the competitive pricing offered.
I'd been searching for a couple years for an RTT and when I came across the Ursa 1300, I knew it was exactly what I was looking for! It's proven to be just that! Excellent quality, very quick and easy to put up and take down, and roomy enough for my family of 3 to sleep comfortably. I also love the skylight in this tent. It makes stargazing easy! I would highly recommend...you won't be disappointed!
Nathan with Live More Outside was great in recommending this mid-height rack to support my new Ironman 4x4 Ursa 1300 RTT! The price could not be beat for the extremely high quality! It's extremely customizable, too, with attachment points everywhere to add on your extras! I highly recommend!
