BASE.
The Explorer doesn’t pack light they pack smart. Softopper® gives you a covered, protected bed that works with your full overland setup. Bed racks? Still fit. Rooftop tent? No problem. Oversized gear? Fold it back and go.
No heavy hard panels to wrestle off. No setup that slows you down when the weather turns. Just a capable, flexible system built for the way you actually use your truck.
See how we stack up
Hard covers are heavy and permanent. Tonneau covers sit flat to the bed, limiting what you can haul. Softopper® gives you protection, flexibility, and access, without the trade-offs.
why it works
Flexible by Design.
Ready for anything.

actually saying.
"Buy it!!"
“This topper is amazing! It is really well made and the material seems very durable. I’ve already taken a 1500 mile road trip camping in the Blue Ridge Mountains with the topper installed and there have been zero issues. Overall I am extremely happy with this purchase and would recommend it to anyone looking for a versatile and robust topper! PS: I have put about 3,000 highway miles down with this topper and I have zero issues with flapping / extra noise etc.”
-Joshua W., 3rd Gen Tacoma
"Absolutely love it"
“Absolutely love it on my Nissan Frontier, quiet at high speed. Perfect for truck camping. I bought the optional screen window for warm weather. Love the extra security and room in my bed for hauling stuff around town, along with camping capability.”
-Brad H., Nissan Frontier
"Happy Camping"
“I recently purchased a soft topper and rack for my 2021 Ford Ranger, and it’s completely changed my truck. Now I can camp with the dogs, and it’s been a blast adding new equipment for all the adventures I seem to stumble upon. Can I just say how easy it was to install both the canvas cover and the rack? Honestly, anyone could do it. The product is spot-on, and I couldn’t be happier with my purchase. “
-Ryan R., Ford Ranger
Frequently asked questions
Yes. When properly installed, Softoppers easily handle the same winds and driving speeds as a hard top.
No. Softopper® cannot be installed with a tonneau cover because both systems mount to the truck bed rails and would interfere with each other. Many customers choose Softopper® for the added benefit of full bed height and flexibility.
Softopper® is built with premium materials and a focus on longevity. Its combination of durable fabric, rust-proof aluminum frame, and replaceable parts makes it an investment that will keep your truck bed protected and looking great for years to come:
Fabric:
- Premier Convertible Fabric:Â We use the same high-quality, automotive-grade convertible fabric trusted by major automakers like Jeep, Ford, and Chrysler.
- Woven Construction with PVC Coating:Â This specialized woven fabric is coated with a UV-stabilized PVC layer, making it exceptionally water-resistant and resilient against the elements.
- Proven Performance: This fabric has been rigorously tested and proven to withstand wind, rain, sunlight, fading, mildew, and rot. It’s designed to stay beautiful and functional for years to come.
Framework:
- Rust-Proof Aluminum: The Softopper’s framework is constructed from lightweight, rust-proof aluminum. This ensures a strong and sturdy structure that can handle the rigors of outdoor use without succumbing to corrosion.
Replaceable & Serviceable:
- Individual Parts: A key advantage of the Softopper® is that all its components – from the fabric to the frame parts – are individually replaceable and serviceable.
- Longevity: This means that if any part of your Softopper® experiences wear and tear or accidental damage, you can replace just that specific part instead of the entire unit. This extends the lifespan of your Softopper® significantly, potentially allowing it to last as long as your vehicle itself.
Yes, you can! The zippers on the rear panel of the Softopper are double-sided.Â
Softopper® can work with a variety of truck bed racks depending on the rack’s mounting design and clearance. You can see a list of racks customers have successfully used in our compatibility guide: https://softopper.com/softopper-compatible-bed-racks/.
For the best fit and full compatibility, we recommend the Softopper® Exo Truck Bed Rack, which was designed to work seamlessly with the Softopper.
