British Military Bivvy vs Snugpak Special Forces

[arthem]

I don't think there's any chemical limit on the life of the membrane, it will be degraded with wear though. If you can find the older green ones in NOS condition, and I've bought acouple in the last year, they should be fine.

Any chance you could share where you got the NOS OD Green ones from?

Bay of E. User saraholwil-3 was one.

I started out with the BA DPM Bivvi, (and matching basha), it's great, very breathable, and durable. But so damn heavy.

I have a Alpkit Hunka XL, it works great for my usecase. Light, compact, breathable. If I was to buy only one of these two, I would get the hunka.

Not me even the hunk a xl I bought is too small

 

[Erbswurst]

How tall are you?

When I was searching for a red one the Hunka seemed to be the best option.

But I forgot about my brother's dog, and so we didn't buy it.

The Hunka XL is not that roomy/wide at the top....at 6'4" it is JUST? long enough, but a faff to get in and out thereof
Otherwise, a good value bag.................
