This bag is waterproof (ToddTex and completely seam taped), and the Winter Bivy is not. The EPIC coating in the Winter Bivy is more breathable than Gore-Tex (or ToddTex I think), but not waterproof.Big Wall:Packed Weight- 1lb 12oz (805g)Packed Size- 6in x 12inArea- 15sqft (90in x 35in)Fabric- Canopy (ToddTex); Floor (PU Laminated)Winter:Packed Weight- 9.9oz (280g)Packed Size- 3in x 5inArea- 14sqft (85in x 35in)Fabric- Canopy (EPIC); Floor (EPIC)
