  • Full review of the new 2020 oex expedition tarp,
    This new green tarp is a lot better then there old black Bush Pro tarp,
    Camouflage into the woodland when stealth camping is very important so this new oex expedition tarp will help me hide away in the woods perfect,
    Also the oex expedition tarp will be great to for when I am out using my oex salamanda hooped pole bivi as a rain over,

    I bet they haven't double stitched those tie outs at the corner on purpose as that's the direction it pulls/stretches in - you want a chain stitch along the direction of force so it has some give without coming undone.

    I might start getting some of that stuff Dan, a lot people i know seem to swear by it but i also know others that swear at it, I'll see. I got a tarp online 5.4 x 4 metres - I think it's bigger than I thought ...lol, but that's fine. I was thinking i can get a smaller one as well. I needed a larger tarp to cover my tent, bike and trailer. It's good when companies listen to their customers though.
