Features
- Removable sleeping compartments
- Clip/sleeve construction eases the set up on larger tents where it would be difficult to reach the clips on the top or center of the tent. The sleeves help increase the strength of the tent while the clips provide excellent ventilation.
- ArcEdge™ floor: A tent floor where the edges come a few inches up the sides before connecting with the tent walls. The ArcEdge floor is a great waterproof design because it has no seams in contact with the ground where water might seep in.
- Taped floor seams
- Mesh wall panels
- Internal storage pockets
- Organizer wall: A tall handy organizer wall with a series of bookshelves and pockets keeps everything tidy
- Gear-loft loops
- Dual entry common area
- Mesh vestibule doors
- Taped seams
- Fly vents: All Kelty tents have aerodynamic venting systems to regulate temperature and reduce condensation
- Noiseless zipper pulls
- Carport and CarTarp attachments
- Guyout points
- DAC DA17 poles DA17 pre-bent poles are made of proprietary aluminum alloy designed by DAC specifically for tents. By using this alloy, we get a large diameter pole with high stiffness, strength and durability at a cost only a little above inexpensive fiberglass poles. This makes for a tent that is less expensive than the Featherlite or Pressfit pole models, but still touts the durability, lighter weight and benefits of aluminum over fiberglass.

Altrec:
"The three-roomcamping complex Kelty Shiro 6 Tent features a middle unit for storing bikes and camping equipment, two removable sleeping compartments, and an attachable carport, giving you a home away from home, wherever your adventures lead."
Backcountry:
"To call the Kelty Shiro a tent is to do it a disservice. The 6-Person, 3-Season Shiro is more like a soft-sided, two-room condo with covered courtyard that you can haul anywhere. This condo-tent features removable sleeping compartments and enough space for bikes and camping gear."
SummitHut:
"The Shiro 6 by Kelty is three-roomcamping complex features a middle unit for storing bikes and camping equipment, two removable sleeping compartments, and an attachable carport, giving you a home away from home, wherever your adventures lead. Whoever said that camping was roughing it never tried the Shiro."
Reviews:
From Backcountry:
" Rain Leaks in Round the Door"
"We were really pleased with the tent when we first put it up. Straight
forward to erect, really spacious inside, good insect protection, nice
high roof... Then we went away for our first weekend and it was a
weekend of steady rain-not particularly heavy rain, just steady.
Unfortunately the tent doors leaked. It doesn't seem that the tent we
have is a faulty one, more that there is a fundamental flaw in the
design. Because of the line the door zips follow, rain is able to get
beneath the protecting flaps in the lower half of the door and seep
through the zips into the tent. Fortunately it doesn't come into the
sleeping areas, but still it's very disappointing in a tent that we
expected to be of high quality, that it can't keep the weather out.
Maybe the editor of 2009 Camping Life never tried the tent in the rain before giving it the Editor's Choice award."
"Great BIG Tent"
"This tent is perfect for the family camping adventure or base camp for
a 24 hour mountain bike race. We can put the pack and play on one side
of the tent and still have a ton of space for the rest of the family.
When you want a SUPER base camp tent, add Kelty's Carport or Car Tarp
to the vestibule and have a ton of living space with room for the
kitchen, camp chairs and a table or park your bikes inside at night.
This is a DELUXE car camping tent. It's no wonder that it won a 2009
Camping Life Editor's Choice Award!"
