Service review
"Its great that Kathmandu supply spares for tent supports that a cracking in the middle BUT I think they should last longer that a few years of irregular use."

Great quality and one happy customer
"One of the original poles snapped lengthways after 7 years, I had to buy a replacement. Luckily Kathmandu still stocks replacements for the Retreat 40! Great quality as well. Cheers Kathmandu!"

Retreat 40 Great tent - got spare poles too
"Recently got the Kathmandu Retreat 40 tent, great 2 person tent that is nice and roomy for solo trips. I'm retired and still like to get out hiking and overnight camps, this Retreat 40 is just right for me. Got the spare poles for just in case I stood on one of the poles! lol, you never know."
Helpful salesperson

Perfect replacement!
"Purchased as a replacement pole for my cheapy Takaka warehouse tent. This pole is wayyy better quality. I might just replace all the poles with these Kathmandu ones!"

Q&A
- When will the retreat 40 black pole be available or can i place an order for one?
- Thank you for getting through to us about this. Unfortunately I am unable to see when these are due back in stock. I would suggest keeping an eye on the website as this will show when they are in stock. Thank you.
- what tent poles will fit a retreat 50 which doesnt seem to be listed on your page please?
- We no longer make the Retreat 50 tent and don't have poles for the Retreat 50 tent.
- Looking for a replacement grey pole for Retreat Beach Shelter small (ref on pitching instructions is PAC01526) pole 8 section, 8.9mm w L3900, will this black one substitute?
- No we wouldn't recommend that as the poles are not the same dimensions. Best to take what you have into your local store to check on repair options first and then for the team to check if they can help find a suitable replacement.
- What is the overall length of these poles? I am trying to ‘jerry-rig’ an old item. THANKS
- The black pole is 3920mm long and is a straight pole in 6 sections joined by the bungee cord and the red pole is specifically shaped for the entrance of the Retreat 40 and doesn't have a length measurement due to its unique shape.
- will this pole fit the retreat 240 tent red pole?
- No, that pole is only designed for the Retreat 40, they are different shapes and sizes so not compatible. Each tent we sell has specific poles which are under the same name as the tent.
