Poles for Dutch Army hooped bivvy

[hogstable]

Hi I have an extra large Dutch DPM bivvy, my mate lent me some fibre glass tent poles but they snapped. Before I do spend hours looking does anyone know what tent poles will fit it, thinking about some aluminium poles for reliabilty.

Cheers

The ones that come with it are thin pre-bent ones; I'm sure they are aluminium aswell. I have been looking for some myself!

Not sure where you can pick them up over here, you might have more success over the pond.

Quest Outfitters or Bear Paw might be able to help

The pole for the Terra Nova Jupiter / Saturn Bivi will probably work and if there a bit long you can chop them down with a hacksaw as they are aluminium, you can get them direct from Terra Nova:

Not cheap mind.
