I nearly got shot! Review of the Alpkit Elan Hooped Bivvy Bag

So lovely evening to be out but I thought I would do a review of the Elan Bivvy. The bivvy I have been using for the last year but this time I nearly got shot by the Pheasant killers lol.

Used mine twice - in October and March. Both occasions were dry. One of the occasions was in long wet grass which didnt soak through. Both occasions i kept the outer open and had no issue with condensation. Yet to test in rain and outer closed.

[@escapeoutdoors.]

Yeah I haven’t been out in the rain with it too. But can only assume a separate tarp may be needed just incase I still rate it though for a good night out under the stars.

[@THEHILLSMIGHTHAVEEYES]

ive just bought the elan. going to use it in the lakes very soon. thanks for posting.

[@escapeoutdoors.]

Don’t forget to drop a message and how you feel about it after your adventure 🤙🏼

[@merson812]

I think it's great. Thanks for the demo and review.

[@escapeoutdoors.]

My pleasure. Cheers mate.

[@TommyRazzle69]

Just ordered one

[@unclepeteswildadventures]

How was the condensation and was ventilation enough when in sleeping bag? I’ve ordered one as I think these crappy high wins during winter are the future. I like to camp on high mountains etc.

[@escapeoutdoors.]

When we went on Tryfan it was good but that cold I had a British Army bivvy inside to protect against wind chill. But yes summer months I would expect condensation.

[@RobBob_Wales]

Mine arrives tomorrow !

[@buzzmas8068]

I'm thinking about getting it myself. Any thoughts on it so far?

[@RobBob_Wales]
