NEW YORK, Sept. 01, 2026 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) — Portal, the global outdoor gear brand focused on making adventure more accessible, announced that Portal Nomis One™ has reached more than 1,000% of its initial Kickstarter funding goal since launching on July 23.
Portal Nomis One™ inflatable rooftop tent
The milestone reflects growing interest in a lighter, more accessible approach to rooftop camping. As the campaign has gained momentum, outdoor creators and automotive enthusiasts have also put Nomis One™ through hands-on testing, with early feedback highlighting the product’s lightweight construction, simplified setup, stability, and versatility across different camping scenarios.
A Lighter Approach to Rooftop Camping
Nomis One™ was developed to address two common challenges of rooftop camping: excessive weight and complicated setup. By replacing a conventional metal frame with an inflatable air-beam structure, Nomis One™ weighs just 45.8 lbs, significantly lighter than many traditional rooftop tents while providing the space, stability, and weather protection needed for outdoor use.
The lightweight design also makes Nomis One™ easier to handle, transport, and store. When packed, the tent measures 32.3 × 17.7 × 15.7 in, allowing it to fit comfortably in the cargo area of most SUVs.
Why Nomis One™ Is Resonating
- Fast, uncomplicated setup: The tent body can inflate in as little as two minutes with the optional electric pump, while the tent-and-mattress combination takes approximately 8.5 minutes to fully inflate.
- Space without storage bulk: The AeroDeck™ measures 92.5 × 59 × 5.9 in when deployed, providing ample space for 2–3 people with a maximum load capacity of 550 lbs.
- One system, three ways to camp: Nomis One™ is designed as a versatile 3-in-1 camping system that can be deployed as a rooftop tent, truck-bed tent, or ground tent across SUVs, pickups, and minivans.
- Built for changing conditions: Constructed from durable 300D Oxford fabric with a 5,000 mm PU waterproof rating, the shelter provides reliable weather protection across a range of outdoor conditions.
From Product Specifications to Real-World Testing
Since its Kickstarter debut, Nomis One™ has been tested by outdoor creators and automotive enthusiasts in real-world camping scenarios.
Their hands-on experiences have provided an important next step beyond product specifications and demonstrations, allowing prospective backers to see how the inflatable rooftop tent performs in practical use. Early feedback has centered on the same qualities Nomis One™ was designed to deliver: manageable weight, straightforward inflation, structural stability, comfort, and the flexibility to move between rooftop, truck-bed, and ground camping setups.
Combined with the campaign reaching more than 1,000% of its initial funding goal, these early real-world experiences demonstrate growing market interest in a rooftop camping system designed around portability and ease of use.
