BROKEN YOUR TENT? DON'T THROW IT AWAY!
Bear in mind that the environmental impact of throwing away a tent is equivalent to driving more than 3,000 km in a car. In order to reduce this impact, Decathlon is committed to ensuring that all the tents are repairable and in perfect condition after repair!
On this page, we will guide you through the process for repairing your tent, depending on the problem encountered.
All our tents are guaranteed against manufacturing defects. We will carry out the repairs free of charge when the tent is under warranty. Just bring your tent to the workshop of your local Decathlon store. When out of warranty or if the damage to your tent has been caused by improper use, it is possible to repair it very easily by yourself (or in the workshop at your expense).
The arch of your tent may be:
- made of glass fibre or aluminium. In this case, it is made up of pole sections and ferrules connected by an elastic.
- an inflatable tube. In this case, it is composed of a tube and a cap.
OUR TIP: Remember to call your store to order the parts in advance and avoid having to make several trips.
