With Pre-Order, you can purchase the latest items added to our store in advance of them arriving with us.
Your Pre-Order is prioritised (at no additional charge); meaning that as soon as the product arrives with us, we can wrap it straight back up; ready for collection via Click & Collect or despatch to you — it often never even hits the stock room shelves!
With Pre-Launch, the date when we expect to receive the product ourselves is still a little too hazy to be confident in accepting Pre-Orders.
So, instead, you can submit your email address against the item you are interested in and we will email you as soon as stock arrives on the system.
Estimated Delivery & Collection Dates are given on Pre-Order and Pre-Launch products. They are for indication purposes only and can change at any time without notice.
The dates we provide are based on indications given by our suppliers. Whenever we get updated information from our suppliers we will endeavour to update the Estimated Delivery & Collection Dates provided on product pages.

The Force 10 Makalu 2 was designed in Scotland by the F10 technical team, ensuring a reliable and stable shelter with plenty of space but not much weight. The grams are saved thanks to lightweight Yunan Eco alloy poles, providing excellent strength in high winds. There's also ruggedness in the flysheet, utilising a 20 denier siliconised nylon that weighs just 42g/m2, with ripstop added to make it even tougher. There's also a tough 70D nylon groundsheet that's perfect for rougher ground, along with plenty of ventilation in the inner. Lightweight, breathable nylon is used in the main, with part-mesh inner doors to allow for extra airflow that are easy to open with one hand, along with the flysheet opening from the top for even more venting.
Practicality has been thought of with inner pockets for quick storage and the oversized opening of the tent bag makes packing it away easy, aided by compression straps to help control the pack size. It comes with seams taped from the factory and has been weather tested past the requirements of European Standard EN5912. For those seeking a semi-geodesic tent without the weight penalty, the Force 10 Makalu 2 is certainly one to consider.
