  Product Description
The Outwell Footprint Iowa / Boston 5 Air provides essential groundsheet protection for your tent whilst camping. This double-coated waterproof polyethylene sheet sits beneath your tent floor, creating a barrier against sharp stones, twigs, and rough terrain that can puncture or tear your tent's built-in groundsheet. At just 0.5kg, it packs down small in the included carrybag but offers substantial protection for your investment.

Measuring 300 x 470 cm, this footprint mirrors the exact groundsheet profile of compatible Outwell Iowa and Boston 5 Air tents. The polyethylene construction provides effective insulation from cold, damp ground, helping maintain warmer temperatures inside your tent during chilly nights. Included pegs allow you to secure the footprint in position before pitching your tent, preventing movement during setup.

Family campers and regular tent users will find this footprint extends their tent's lifespan considerably by preventing wear and tear from repeated ground contact. However, you must position the footprint entirely beneath your tent - any exposed edges will channel rainwater directly under your floor, creating puddles inside your sleeping area.

Frequently Asked Questions

Will this footprint fit other Outwell tent models?
This footprint is specifically designed for the Iowa and Boston 5 Air models only. The 300 x 470 cm dimensions mirror these tents' exact groundsheet profiles. Using it with different tent models will result in poor fit, with edges either exposed to channel rainwater or insufficient coverage leaving your groundsheet vulnerable.
What happens if the footprint extends beyond my tent edges?
Any footprint material extending beyond your tent will collect rainwater and channel it directly underneath your tent floor, creating puddles inside your sleeping area. The footprint must be positioned entirely beneath your tent with no exposed edges. If your footprint is too large, fold the edges under before pitching your tent.
How much insulation does the polyethylene provide?
The double-coated waterproof polyethylene creates an effective barrier between your tent floor and cold ground, reducing heat loss through conduction. While not as insulating as foam mats, it noticeably improves warmth retention compared to pitching directly on grass or soil, particularly beneficial during spring and autumn camping when ground temperatures drop significantly.
Can I clean the footprint after muddy camping trips?
Yes, the waterproof polyethylene surface cleans easily with water and mild detergent. Rinse off mud and debris, then allow to dry completely before packing in the carrybag to prevent mould growth. The smooth surface wipes clean much more easily than tent groundsheets, making post-camping cleanup simpler.
