To use a footprint or to not use a footprint, that is the question. That part is completely up to you and how much you like buying new gear. I suggest a footprint for every tent either tyvek or the manufactured footprint. 4-7 oz is worth the saved money of replacing a bum tent floor. As for this model, yes, they do make a footprint, just google it. Cost: about 25$. Hope this helps.
