Tiegear Review: A Serious Tie Down Solution for Serious Weather

Tiegear Review: For those who have suffered the pain of tents, awnings and tie down enclosures losing the battle with wind and rain – Meet Tiegear.

Tiegear set out to create an end-all/be-all tie down solution for a wide range of outdoor gear and equipment, and they absolutely hit the peg on the head. And given the product lineup was designed in Australia, the Tiegear crew knows a thing or two about extreme conditions.

Having had the chance to review Tiegear’s products firsthand, the quality is impressive. The Steadfast Collection brings together a range of accessories that combine to enhance setup efficiency and site stability.

All of the components in the Steadfast Collection lineup are made with zero frills and all function; each piece feels extremely purpose-built, a rarity in today’s market. The heavy-duty materials make setup and teardown straightforward, with all parts designed to work in harmony. It’s a product line that’s simply refreshing: heavy duty and built to withstand serious wear and tear.

There was substantial thought and design put into each element of the Steadfast Collection and each warrants discussion. Here’s our rundown on each piece of the Tiegear collection.

Each Steadfast Guy Rope is engineered for secure tension and quick setup. Tiegear’s cast alloy tensioner allows users to adjust and secure the 13-foot UV-stable nylon rope at any length, accommodating variable needs in shifting outdoor conditions. A standout in these ropes is their anti-tangle design, which saves time in tricky setups.

And when it’s time to pack, the built-in storage bag keeps them organized—no more rummaging around for tangled guy lines.

Tiegear’s heavy-duty soft springs provide essential flex, absorbing the shock of strong winds that could otherwise loosen or dislodge pegs. Or even worse, cause your awning or shelter to snap back against their fascining hardware and snap.

Designed specifically for wrapping around the drum of vehicle awnings, these springs offer secure points of connection while protecting surfaces from scratches—a real plus if you’re using delicate or polished materials in your setup.

The Hard Terra Pegs, made from forged 304 stainless steel, are equipped with a masonry-style tip for easy drilling into tough terrain. Each peg features a rotating double-hooked head, making it possible to secure multiple tie-downs at different angles, ideal for stabilizing complex setups in unpredictable terrain.

Crafted from UV-stabilized, reinforced nylon, the Soft Terra Pegs offer flexibility without sacrificing toughness. Like the Hard Terra, these pegs also have a double-hooked head, simplifying multi-directional tie-downs. Their 19mm head makes them compatible with standard caravan and camper stabilizing bolts, so they integrate seamlessly with other setup needs.

A small but critical addition, the Terra Driver features a 19mm socket that fits both Hard and Soft Terra pegs. Its drill-compatible design not only speeds up the anchoring process but doubles as a tool for stabilizing camper legs—a great way to reduce the tools you need to carry.

Constructed from a 12oz canvas exterior with an 18oz PVC lining, the STEADFAST Explorer Bag is designed for durability and ease of transport. It includes a breathable mesh lid, so gear can be stored even when wet without fear of mold or odor buildup.

With its removable PVC divider, the bag’s interior is easy to organize according to each adventure, keeping setup and teardown organized and hassle-free.

Each element of the Tiegear system can be purchased individually or you can select one of Tiegear’s purpose built bundles. The Overlander Bundle ($489.95) covers all bases with six guy ropes, soft springs, Hard and Soft Terra pegs, and a sturdy Explorer bag, each designed to optimize performance, packability, and ease of use.

At first glance, the $489.95 price tag might seem high, but considering the quality of each piece, it ultimately makes sense when considering the entire kit. With materials like stainless steel, reinforced nylon, and heavy-duty canvas, this bundle is built to withstand years of use, addressing needs beyond standard equipment.

And again, if you’re starting small or simply want to customize to your setup, Tiegear allows each item to be purchased individually, letting you build out your perfect kit without over-committing.

The Steadfast Collection can take on any final boss. Yes, the Tiegear product line is expensive. Pricing is a hangup when discussing internally with our team, but for those who have the room in their budget to add this to their kit, we highly recommend.

This isn’t just another fabricated solution to a non-existent problem—it’s designed to handle extreme weather, making it a solid choice for seasoned overlanders.
