New Copper Spur Limited 2P Tent & Footprint Two Person Tents

Jump to: Our Verdict / Features / Specifications

UOG TOP PICK –For those who loved the Copper Spur but wanted something just a touch lighter, stronger, and with a standout colourway, the Limited version delivers, without losing what made the original so popular.

Big Agnes says: 

Limited edition, three-season, freestanding, ultralight tent with included footprint.

Stand out with the limited-edition version of the award-winning Copper Spur Ultralight tent. The distinctive white, solution dyed HyperBead™ fabric is lighter, stronger, and more waterproof than ever.

The Copper Spur Limited is a special edition model featuring lighter fabrics, an exclusive colorway, an included footprint, and a slimmed down feature set optimized for ultralight travel. Available in limited quantities only, these tents are 3-6oz (70-150g) lighter than the standard Copper Spur UL!

High volume, freestanding design provides ample interior room and the stability to keep you sleeping soundly through the roughest backcountry nights. When ultralight comfort is the priority, the Copper Spur Limited is your ultimate home away from home.

Our Verdict

At 1145g (excluding stakes and footprint), the Copper Spur Limited 2P is impressively light for a freestanding, fully featured tent with dual doors and vestibules. It comes in 91g lighter than the current Copper Spur, a respectable 7% drop that feels meaningful when counting grams.

The shift to HyperBead fabric is the real draw — noticeably more robust and better at shedding water, with the benefit of being PFAS-free. It still pitches quickly thanks to the familiar TipLok system, and the cross-pole hub helps maximise headroom without adding faff. I appreciated the smaller details too: low vents improve airflow, the Quick Stash loops keep the doors tidy, and the included footprint — not standard on the regular version — adds real value, both in function and weight savings when using a fast fly setup.

The clean white fly might not suit every taste, especially in muddy conditions, but it does add to the tent’s distinctive character. Compared to the standard UL2, the Limited edition shaves grams and feels more refined — and on trail, that extra bit of strength brings real peace of mind.

Lighter, tougher, and sharper — the Copper Spur Limited makes a good tent even better.
