The Vango Kela Low TC is the ultimate luxury drive-away awning, offering a camper van shelter, manufactured in polycotton for added camping comfort as the fabric is equally adept in hotter and cooler climates, due to its breathability and natural weather resistance. Featuring a colour upgrade to Cloud Grey, and a fabric upgrade to the Sentinel Eco Polycotton fabric which is made from recycled bottles that may have otherwise ended up in landfill and environmentally friendly sourced cotton. This helps to reduce the impact production has on the environment.
Polycotton fabric has great strengths, as it is far more durable than polyester, but it does weigh more than the polyester counterpart, by around 4kg on the weight, with a slightly larger pack size. However, the benefits of the lifetime, breathability, and weather resistance of polycotton outweigh the additional weight.
Furthermore, the Kela is an Airbeam design making it very quick, simple, and hassle-free to pitch. Simply attach the Kela to the side of your vehicle, peg the product down, and inflate the AirBeams. A highly popular design by Vango, the TC Kela air Low awning offers plenty of living space in a simple tunnel design, with a fully sewn-in groundsheet, and a connecting strip for entering the vehicle, with a large connecting panel, complete with two doors.

| Fabric Denier | Polycotton (35% Cotton / 65% Polyester) DetailsDenier – a measurement used to determine the thickness of the tent flysheet. It relates to the fibre thickness, or thread counts used. The thicker the fabric, generally the stronger, and more durable the fabric will be. The denier really reflects the lifetime to be expected of the tent, and how quickly, it will be affected by UV Degradation. |
