I really just want this tent, but I've been trying for weeks and with no indication they will be available again any time soon I'm looking for alternatives. https://gazelletents.com/products/t4-overland-exp
I like the "Hub" Style but any Quick deploy or anything easy and fast for 1 person will work.
I live in Florida so airflow is critical.
Weight is a non issue But packed size needs to be under 5'.
I'm 6' and must be able to stand, Overall Dimensions must be 10'x10" or less.

Been in same situation few months back – wanted that exact tent but gave up waiting. Hub style tents are game changer for solo setup, especially when you’re dealing with Florida humidity and need something up quick before the afternoon storms hit.
Look at the pop-up style camping tents with instant frame systems instead. Most decent ones will give you that standing room at 6′ and pack down to around 4 feet. The airflow thing is huge down there – make sure whatever you get has mesh panels on multiple sides, not just the door. Ground ventilation is also key if you’re camping in summer.
I don’t have the tent but [bass pro shop](https://www.basspro.com/p/bass-pro-shops-4-person-hub-tent) has a similar hub style one . It’s also currently on clearance. Not sure how it packs down.
Seems like it’s available on amazon for $470
Did you email them? I’ve done that with brands and sometimes the agents have a little inside knowledge
I emailed them and they said they would have more in stock at or around the beginning of June
A really good one I’ve been looking at is the Overlandish tent. It’s sold out too of course and like twice as expensive and it’s also supposed to be back in stock at the beginning of June as well.

This is the smaller one. https://overlandish.com/products/basecamp-solo
Ovs and roam make hub tents but not like the new style gazelle. Also overlandish
I’m in the same boat. What I landed on was a Kakadu swag just to sleep in and a Gazelle G5 gazebo. I don’t always need the extra tent space, just need a place to lay down, and the gazebo with the sidewalls attached works as a changing space or whatever I want honestly.
I’d sell my T4+ for one.
There’s a manufacturer that either is the original or copied Gazelles design. I do not recall the name but it’s the same pop up style and price was similar if I remember correctly. If I can find it, I will post again…
