The SOL Tactical Olive Green Escape Bivy Bag is a top - notch choice for outdoor enthusiasts seeking emergency backcountry protection. Its unique fabric has a remarkable ability. It allows moisture from your body to escape while keeping rain, snow, and wind at bay. Moreover, it reflects your body's radiant heat back to you, keeping you warm in harsh conditions. The bag comes with waterproof seams, a drawstring hood closure, and a side zip. This means you can effectively seal out the elements when needed. In warmer weather, you can use it just like a traditional sleeping bag. The low - visibility OD Green color with repeated black logos is perfect for situations where staying hidden is crucial for survival. Weighing only 241 grams, it's lightweight and easy to carry. It measures 91.5 cm x 213 cm, providing ample space. When packed, it's as small as 8.9 cm x 19 cm, making it convenient for travel. This bivy bag is suitable for a wide range of activities such as emergency survival situations, adventure racing, hunting, fishing, hiking, skiing, camping, canoeing, climbing, cycling, and more. It's also favored by military, law enforcement, and rescue personnel. Key features include breathability, body heat reflection, windproof and water - resistant properties. Please note that depending on the climate, normal body perspiration may cause condensation inside the bag. This is an emergency shelter and doesn't function like a tent or a hut.
Using this SOL bivy bag is quite simple. First, unroll it and spread it out on a flat surface. If the weather is bad, use the drawstring on the hood to tighten it around your head and the side zip to seal the bag, keeping the elements outside. In warmer weather, you can leave the zip open and use it like a regular sleeping bag. When it comes to maintenance, after each use, make sure to air it out. If it gets dirty, you can gently wipe it with a damp cloth. Don't use harsh chemicals as they might damage the fabric. Remember, this is an emergency shelter, not a long - term accommodation like a tent. Also, due to normal body sweating, there might be some condensation inside the bag, especially in certain climates. So try to choose a well - ventilated spot if possible.
