I’ve been familiar with Alu-Cab for the last decade, but I didn’t truly appreciate the brand until I spent nearly a month with their gear in Namibia. From camping on the remote Skeleton Coast to navigating towering dunes and hearing lions outside of camp, Alu-Cab gear never let us down. It was built for this—harsh conditions, rugged terrain, and total self-reliance. That’s why we’re proud to announce that Overland Kitted is now an official Alu-Cab dealer, bringing some of the best overlanding gear in the world directly to our customers.
Why Alu-Cab? Built for Adventure, Proven in the Field
Born in South Africa, Alu-Cab has been a leader in the overland and expedition industry for decades, designing products to handle the harshest environments on the planet. Whether you’re deep in the Australian Outback or tackling the mountain passes of the Rockies, Alu-Cab gear is built to keep up.
We don’t just sell overlanding gear—we use what we sell. After years of experience with Alu-Cab products in the field, we’re bringing in a curated selection of their best gear, including:
• Alu-Cab Gen 3-R Expedition Rooftop Tent – A hard-shell tent built for serious expeditions, the Gen 3-R features quick deployment, military-grade canvas, and an integrated solar panel input, making it one of the most durable and well-thought-out rooftop tents available. The all-aluminum construction ensures longevity, and the built-in gear tracks allow for additional storage solutions.
• Alu-Cab Shadow Awnings – The Shadow Awning lineup includes 270-degree and 180-degree models, providing fast, freestanding shade with reinforced aluminum arms for extreme weather resistance. Unlike traditional awnings that require multiple support poles, Alu-Cab’s design lets you deploy shade in seconds without hassle, making it perfect for windy, unpredictable conditions.
• Alu-Cab Shower Cube – Privacy at camp is often an afterthought, but the Alu-Cab Shower Cube ensures a quick, simple solution for personal space wherever you travel. Mountable to a roof rack or canopy, this compact unit folds out instantly, providing an enclosed area for showering, changing, or using a camp toilet.
• Alu-Cab Load Bars & Accessories – Versatile load bars provide a secure foundation for mounting rooftop tents, storage boxes, and gear. Paired with Alu-Cab’s lineup of mounting brackets, storage solutions, and camp essentials, these accessories create a seamless and functional overland setup.
Tested, Trusted, and Ready for the Road
The best gear isn’t always the flashiest—it’s the stuff you don’t have to think about when you’re miles from anywhere. That’s what Alu-Cab delivers. Whether it’s their aircraft-grade aluminum construction, their smart modular designs, or their ability to withstand serious off-road abuse, Alu-Cab products just work—and that’s why we trust them.
Now, they’re available to order right here in the U.S., shipping quickly so you can gear up for your next adventure. If you’re ready to take your overland setup to the next level, shop our Alu-Cab collection today or reach out if you have any questions about fitment and setup.
