useful spares
it's always useful to have some spare tent stakes and I probably already have more than enough but at less than €6, this was a bargain I couldn't pass up. Haven't used them yet but they seem sturdy and are long and light

Not the stakes pictured.
These are not the stakes pictured in the close-ups. They are just plain straight Y-pegs, which doesn't give a good first impression. I know that Stoic also "makes" the pictured stakes, a rotated Y-shape, since that's what I got with a tarp from Stoic. They're good value for sure, but redundant for myself.

Save some extra weight with these tent stakes
Easy to take out of the ground because of small rope attached
Probably too short for loose sandy grounds

I found the on sale so it was good price-value option for lightening up my back pack. However they are easy to bend so you have to careful when setting up your tent. I had to throw 2 of them away already because i couldn't get the back to the original shape.

Bought these to replace steel pegs for my old tent. A good weight saving, these pegs were easy to get in the ground and the 'Y' shape kept them secure. The cord loop makes them easy to remove and they are highly visible so shouldn't be accidentally lost. I notice that one has become slightly distorted in use but I was expecting this given that they are an aluminium alloy. Overall, a good buy and significantly cheaper than other better known brands.
