Legendary Canvas Wall Tents
Adventure begins at base camp. And nothing defines a base camp more than a classic wall tent. We’ve been innovating the canvas wall tent industry for more than 130 years, and we’ve learned a few things along the way.
unfold adventure with a canvas tent
We hand sew quality all-season canvas tents that are both durable and practical, with extra head space and lightweight breathable fabric.
canvas tents for any occasion
Traditionally used by the military and scouting groups, Diamond Brand Gear’s next generation wall tents are suited to much more. From wilderness adventure base camps to catering kitchens, outdoor festivals, and glamping, these tents are versatile, flexible, and highly customizable.
Configure your wall tent for single-day, multi-day or year-round adventures in any climate. Diamond Brand Gear wall tents are your base camp solution, far more spacious and practical than a small dome tent, yet far more affordable and portable than a trailer or hard sided shelter.
We practice the art of the tent
Durable canvas
Our wall tents are tough! Durable 13oz polyester/cotton fabric is treated to be fire retardant, mildew resistant, and water resistant. Sealed seams, triple reinforced corners, and sturdy grommets add to long term durability. Outlast the elements with a piece of gear that will perform season after season.
Versatile shelters
Wall tents are very customizable and can be configured for your specific use. Setting up your tent village for a scouting group or summer camp? We have large canvas wall tents that work for sleeping or as mess kitchens. Need a festival set up for the heat of summer? Consider shade flys, rain flys, and/or screen doors to keep airflow steady while keeping out the bugs.
a Time-honored tent tradition
We take our history seriously. Diamond Brand Gear has been sewing quality canvas for over 100 years and has an extensive history with the U.S. Military, Boy Scouts of America, and summer camps. Our commitment to quality extends beyond our products. We’re also proud to be committed to our people and to manufacturing all our tents and gear in the USA. Learn more about our history.
Multi-season camping Performance
If you’re living in a tent for any length of time ventilation is key, especially in warmer humid climates. Diamond Brand Gear’s breathable wall tent with mesh windows allows for airflow circulation throughout the tent. Optional zippered removable screen doors create a nice cross breeze for exceptional ventilation. Plus, all wall tents come out-of-the-box treated for water repellency, mildew resistance, and fire retardancy. No seasoning required. And our wall tent canvas is both mildew and UV resistant.
we make tents for Everyone
No matter who you are or where you’re from, we’ve got a shelter to suit your needs.
Scout tents
Our 90-year history with the Scouts is one of our distinguished achievements and our canvas wall tents remain essential to Scouts today. We’re proud of our work with local and regional cub scout, girl scout, and boy scout camps and councils and continue to be a resource for their canvas wall tent needs.
Military, Hunting, & Survival tents
Diamond Brand Gear produces the most authentic military grade tents on the market. It’s a bold claim, but one backed up by our long history of contract work with the U.S. military that spans more than 100 years. We are honored to continue our military tent contract work to this day with our production of a two man military combat tent for the USMC. For those interested in meeting the needs of multiple survival scenarios, multiple tents would be needed. If you are interested in a survival tent for a larger group, our canvas wall tents could be the perfect solution.
Glamping tents
Our Glamping tents are where outdoor adventure meets modern luxury. These semi-permanent canvas tents place a premium on space and comfort, making for the most pleasant night sleep you’ll find away from your own bed. See them in action at Pisgah Glamping.
tents for Sacred Spaces
A canvas wall tent can become your special space to get away from it all, even if you’re just a few steps away from your house. Whether you need a place to relax, work, or meditate, a wall tent can provide you with a fun, flexible option.

Diamond Brand Gear has a great legacy for creating and manufacturing top quality outdoor products. As a professional outfitter for decades, I relied on Diamond Brand’s 4-man tents for expeditions all over the world. The construction of these tents was phenomenal, including mesh screens that kept out the tiniest insects, heavy-duty zippers, the finest rip-stop nylon materials, great air circulation from front to back, storm-tested wind resistance, roomy interior with space for personal gear and pockets for small stuff, and an overall design that was the envy of everyone in the wilderness. And if we ever needed spare poles or stakes, or even a repair, Diamond Brand always provided the service we needed. So glad to see this famous enterprise re-establishing the best of their extraordinary product line with dedicated company personnel behind the resurgence of this great American manufacturing company.
