MSR E-Bivy

Item #CAS0560 | 11 in Stock
1 Star Rating

Not Breathable

By Ranked #494 - Sleeping Bags June 15, 2009

This bivy would get a 5 if the top material were something, anything that is breathable. The dimensions, quality, and overall design of this bivy are great. However, the entire bivy is made of sil-nylon, which is fine for the floor, but not the whole thing. Used it on a weekend and my bag was totally soaked inside the bivy each morning. I guess the same guy that designed the HyperFlow designed this? I thought I would give it a try anyway, but had to send it back. If they would change the top material it would be a winner.
