Heimplanet and Maharishi, two titans in their respective fields, have come together to blend style and functionality in a way that has never been seen before. Known for their innovative designs inspired by nature, the German outdoor gear manufacturer and the London-based streetwear label have joined forces to launch a limited-edition inflatable tent. Aptly named ‘The Cave,’ this camping essential fuses Maharishi’s distinctive aesthetic with Heimplanet’s revolutionary tent design.
This unique creation is a result of the shared philosophy of both labels. Harnessing the power of natural patterns and structures, they have crafted a product that mirrors their pacifist approach to military-grade utilitarian design. By marrying camouflage—a symbol of nature and art—to technology, they offer an homage to the marvels of the natural world.
The Genesis of ‘The Cave’
In crafting ‘The Cave,’ Maharishi recreated a rare Tigerstripe camouflage pattern from the 1960s, named ‘Golden Tigerskins.’ This exceptional design is used on the inner tent, creating a sense of invisibility, a celebration of the camouflage’s roots in nature, and its evolution at the hands of artists.
Bearing the iconic model name of Heimplanet, THE CAVE is a testament to innovation and resilience. Painted in an understated olive green, the tent’s structure is a marvel of geometric design. Capable of withstanding harsh conditions, it has been field-tested by explorers around the world. Furthermore, its inflatable structure can be set up in less than a minute, making it an ideal companion for any outdoor adventure.
Reflecting on the Collaboration
The creation of this limited-edition tent has sparked excitement from both parties involved. Maharishi founder Hardy Blechman expressed his thrill in collaborating with Heimplanet, describing ‘The Cave’ as “a perfect blend of style and function.” He also emphasized the tent’s representation of shared values—innovation, quality, and sustainability—and his confidence that it would appeal to both outdoor enthusiasts and style-conscious campers.
Stefan Clauss, CEO of Heimplanet, mirrored this sentiment. Honored by the partnership, he acknowledged Maharishi’s innovative work with camouflage patterns, which have inspired Heimplanet’s own designs in the past, including the “Cairo Camo.” Clauss further noted the blend of Maharishi’s aesthetic and Heimplanet’s camping gear would result in a truly unique and functional product.
