Zipper Pulls?

Anyone add any type of zipper pulls to help quiet down the tent in the wind? I may just make some with paracord but I’m “knot” the best at tying sweet knots.

I’m looking to cut my metal pulls off and do the same. I got 550 cord. The metal pulls are noisy in windy situations.

This sounds like a really nice mod! Would you mind sharing any pics of them on your tent?

I saw loads of pictures of peoples tents with orange zipper pulls (before I picked up my RTT) and when mine didn’t have any, I thought it had been forgotten, but maybe just discontinued.

My platform camper tent had the orange pulls originally but my warranty replacement tent did not. I think the zipper pulls are easily caught in between the extrusions if you’re not careful and that’s why they stopped including them (once the weather seal between the extrusions became the norm).

But removing the metal pull tab would probably reduce this issue and I might swap my original pulls back in if I have any issues with noisy metal pull tabs in the future.
