Family camping tents usually come without a footprint, but some have it. So what is the purpose of a tent footprint? Read more about this here.   In most cases, large family  camping tents  have a thick polyethylene floor and this works well without a footprint. Polyethylene is a sort of plastic and it is relatively inexpensive. Such floors have a huge waterproof rating, they are welded so there should never be leaking. But there are some great exceptions where tents have a polyester floor and they also come with a footprint.   But even if the tent doesn't come with a footprint, it may be a good idea buying it separately and use it under the tent. Here are some possible reasons for this. 1. Protection from sharp objects on the ground Having a footprint can protect the flor from some sharp items underneath the tent.

  For a   family camping tent , it must be weather resistant, i.e. waterproof. So regarding this and other criteria, what is the best tent fabric? Here I have provided some basic information on the fabric issue.   Tent fabric comparison The most important part of the tent is its flaps and floor. These elements should be waterproof, and this also applies to the lower part of the tent walls if the fly is not a full coverage type. Usually  waterproof tent fabrics  can be one of the following. ● Polyester. ● Nylon. ● Polyethylene. ● UV-Tex 5. ● Canvas (and poly-canvas). ● Cuben fiber. ● Gore-Tex. ● Vapex.   Only the first five are important for the family camping tent you have on site.

It is a completely man-made fabric that is affordable, durable and relatively lightweight. If I had to guess, I would say that 60% of  modern tents  are made of nylon. Polyester is slightly more expensive than nylon and less common. In most respects, they are essentially similar in terms of tent creation. However, polyester may be slightly lighter in some implementations, but much depends on the manufacturer's construction methods and the intended use of their gear by the user.   What is the best tent fabric? To a large extent, I think polyester and nylon tents are essentially equal for everyone, except the ultra-hiker. Last but not least, cuben fiber
