Can anyone please help us? After our last camping trip we are unable to find our Outwell Nevada M poles I blame my son lol I'm sure he didnt put them in as we left in a hurry because of the rain, does anyone have one of these tents that would be willing to measure the 4x main poles so that we can replace them as cheaply as possible, I see Outwell sell replacement pole kits but am unsure if they are even the correct length? We also have the front extension that we have the poles for luckily so does anyone know if the pole sections are the same length or could we cut them to size and we could forfeit our extension if thats cheaper. p,s we also have the rain door pole somehow? Sorry for all the questions and really will appreciate any help, Thanks in advance

Campingworld posted on here last week saying that they've now put a spares and repairs bit on their website....you could try there to see if they have spares
Hi, many thanks for your reply, had a look on their site and they had the red pole for the nevada L only
We have the M, I'm thinking I might just get non durawrap 12mm Vango poles and cut them to suit as this would seem to be a lot cheaper way of doing it, or use them for the extension and vice versa use the durawrap poles (original) ones for the tent. I have had to repair tent poles a few times in the past on other tents, but if some kind person could give me the measurements of the poles length when put together I would REALLY appreciate it, thanks again
P.s handy tip for threading poles is to thread one pole then pull elastic through tight then put a safety pin through elastic after the pole then start threading the next pole,using another safety pin after that you can then remove the first (hope this makes sense)
saves the elastic springing through undoing your work which is very frustrating
Won't Outwell supply measurements for the pole sections if not the poles themselves? Coleman did for me last year. Must admit I've heard a few issues with getting dedicated replacement poles from Outwell.
Kampa are so different ~ although they didn't have stock when I first asked, when the next batch of spares arrived from China they supplied me with 2 whole spare poles (fully strung) for our Kampa Bude 4 for £46, next day delivery. I wanted the specific ones as the PE coating on the poles wraps around the ends of the poles and could potentially be worn easily if the poles were cut down leaving a raw edge to the PE coating.
------------- Love our set-up and need no more tents or gear, so trying to stop looking!
