very nice Review, just orderd one of this Bivis in the uk Thanks for sharing this revie with us thanks Harry

[@SZITAKA]

Great review! I was wondering how much can you tighten the hood, which is very important in heavy rain, and you gave me an answer. Thanks a lot!

[@twinbo100]

Great review, Just bought one in dpm here in the uk, for some winter camping. A.t.b.......Gary.

[@soggz4246]

Great review. If you change out the flat lace for thin paracord,it tightens up better. Regards.

[@KMHiker]

Yep, that might work perfectly. What I did just couple of days ago was permanently stitch the lace in place for the hood part. I've been having the same sleeping bags for many years now so I don't really want to adjust it every time I want to set up the camp. It is easier that way. If I get a new sleeping bag, I can just undo the stitching.

To stop rain getting in, just turn it over so the opening is at bottom,rain just rolls off.

[@opmdevil]

That is true.

[@ulugtarkan3560]

Have the same awsome sleeping bag :) Does this combination do cause more condensation with the bivvy bag? And does it warm noticebly more with the bag?

Onko tämä brittibivy minkälaatuinnen errattuna esim- carinthian bivy pussiin? Toinen maksaa 300 euroa ja tämä 60 e. Onko mitään väliä kumman hankkii käytännössä?

[@born993]

Its waterproof, could you sleep in the rain in it?

[@KMHiker]

It is waterproof but the hole for the head is problematic in rain. You need a tarp.

[@KMHiker]

Bushcraft Oberland Nice to hear.

[@somebawldy3789]

I put my inflatable sleeping mattress inside too

[@beechwood74]

Thanks for this review. Very good. I few people have said the bag is very, very big. I am only 5'8" and so there will be quite a bit of room around me. Do you keep your stuff inside the bag - out of interest? Thanks.

[@KMHiker]

Yes, you can keep stuff inside and I do that.

[@beechwood74]

KMHiker Thanks for that. Also, do you use a compression sack or just fold it up small and put it in your rucksack? I was looking to see what compression sacks might be available. Thanks.

[@KMHiker]

Makes sense to just fold it. Compression sacks weight a quite a lot if you have many.

[@blackyforce5006]

Hallo, habe den auch, aber wie lässt sich das Kopfteil zuschnüren? Geht irgendwie nicht 🤔😂👀

[@dennisg.7777]

Der Biwaksack hat ja nur eine Kordel, die einmal herumgeht. Das Zuziehen geht extrem schwer. Ich werde jetzt einmal die Kordel austauschen und schauen, ob das dann einfacher geht.

[@blackyforce5006]

@@dennisg.7777 Ich habe die Schnur auf ein paracord ersetzt, geht super

[@mikepeach9395]

Hello! What about the condensation on the inside? Does it happen? Thanks

[@KMHiker]

In freezing (sub-zero) conditions, if you breath inside the bag, then you get moisture. In normal operating conditions (summer etc), there is no worry about it.

@@KMHiker thank you!
