Does this tent require, or come with, a footprint? I don't see anything about it in the specs or the description.

Becuase the tent does not have a "fast fly" set up option it does not require a footprint. Also, I can't seem to find a footprint for sale made specifically for this tent.

It does not come with a footprint, and whether you use a footprint (or a ground sheet of any type) with this (or any tent) is a matter of personal preference. It adds additional weight to your kit, but can increase the life of the tent and potentially improve stormworthiness via the additional layer under the floor. Good luck with whatever you decide on...
