James Baroud Odyssey
This isn’t your average rooftop tent. The Odyssey is our flagship ABS hardshell model, offering premium comfort, patented fabric tech, and a design so refined it’s inspired by nature. With 360º panoramic views, best-in-class insulation, and an industry-leading 5-year warranty, it’s the gold standard in rooftop sleeping.
Crafted in Porto, Portugal, and backed by decades of innovation, the Odyssey features the exclusive Frontier Fabric — a six-layer aluminised canvas that blocks UV, reflects heat, and shrugs off wild weather like it’s nothing. So yes, it’s cooler inside (up to 6°C cooler), pitch-black even in daylight, and completely wind-proof.
This tent sleeps quietly, blocks out the light, and sits at the top of its class in every category that matters: insulation, wind resistance, and comfort. There’s even a video floating around of two Toyotas towing each other with our canvas. No joke.

This roof top tent is the best real estate I’ve ever purchased. You cannot put a price on comfortable good rest after long days of adventuring or on road safety when travelling long distances. Adam’s customer service is a great bonus.
Really happy with the comfortable mattress which coming from a caravan I was skeptical about. Super cosy inside and no problem in high wind or heavy rain - totally dry inside and not sleeping on the dirt is a huge win for me. Minimal wind noise when driving and can be in bed in under 2 mins. Should have got it years ago.
