I would have thought polycotton, in the tent world atleast, would always mean part polyester, part cotton, hence the hybrid name?

Agreed... except Soulpad call their 100% cotton tent the "Soulpad 3000 Hybrid"!

I guess they just did that to be annoying! For that reason alone, I'll never buy one of their tents, now!

AHA!! Their "Ultralite" (see posts above) IS a polyester/cotton mix

As an aside, bearing in mind your comment above, re SoulPad: I took them off my list when searching for a 4m bell tent for poor customer interaction (with me) and bought a Solace 1 from Blacks of Greenock. (excellent customer interaction, couldn't be more helpful))
