This is a double-walled tent made mostly of mesh. If you ventilate the tent properly you should not have issues with condensation. This is the short answer. The semi-long rudimentary answer is that condensation occurs when dew-point is reach on any surface. Also, our bodies are composed of 98% water. You would be amazed at how much moisture is exhaled while you sleep. When the temperature drops and humidity increases water condenses... bottom line. Double-walled tents, ventilation, dry weather, and low humidity all help to mitigate or improve our experience with condensation especially when it comes to tents. Hope this info helps..
