The Snugpak Bivvi Bag WGTE is a lightweight waterproof outer shell for your sleeping bag, rated to a 5000mm hydrostatic head and built for wild camping, military use and all-season protection of a sleeping system. Made from breathable Paratex Dry nylon with taped seams, it forms a weatherproof micro-climate around your bag, holding off rain, wind and ground moisture while letting trapped vapour escape so condensation stays in check.

Weighing 300g and packing to 13 x 10cm, it adds dependable weather protection for very little bulk. At 230cm long and 88cm across the chest it has room for a four-season bag inside. On warmer trips it works on its own as a minimalist shelter, and through the rest of the year it slips over a sleeping bag to add warmth and seal out wind and rain. It is offered in Olive Green and Black.

Safety note: Paratex Dry has a solid coating and, although breathable, cannot pass enough air to sustain breathing. Never completely seal the bivvi while in use - always keep the head area ventilated.
Bivvi Bag or the Special Forces Bivvi Bag? The fabric, the 5000mm hydrostatic head and the taped seams are the same on both, so they shed weather identically. This standard version is the lighter, simpler one at 300g: there is no zip, you slide the sleeping bag in. It is also the roomier of the two across the chest at 88cm against 84cm. The Special Forces Bivvi Bag adds a half-length zip at the centre front, which lines up with the centre zips on the Special Forces sleeping bags so both open in the same place, and it comes in an Extra Long size and a Coyote Tan option.
