They now use a synthetic bag in conjunction with a gortex type bivi bag....it's very similar in style to the old 58 bag but has a compression bag with it and no waterproof base (hence the bivvi bag).
I used the 58 bag as a cadet for many years and liked it but I also kept my newer sleeping system when I left the TA and use that now....I find it very good and still cheaper than civvi alternatives.......but (always a but) it's still rather bulky even with the compression sac.
