Cyprinus® Base HQ 1 Man Bivvy

Description

So let’s start with the bare bones: this is your classic three-rib, pram-hood shelter with a front peak. It’s strong, reliable, quick to set up.  That strength comes from the super strong poles (which come finished in a new classy black powder coating) which build the structure of the HQ. The reliability lies in the fabric the Swindon-based firm has used: it comes with a mightily impressive 10,000mm Hydrostatic head and 100% waterproof rating, which basically means: “you’re not going to get wet”.

It comes complete with zipped and Velcroed mozzie back vents and front side windows, along with a clear door window and dual-zipped doors to allow for a letterbox-style opening, plus front and rear rod straps. So yes: it’s got all the bells and whistles you’d expect to find on any top-end pram-hood.

The second key part about this new bivvy is its versatility. Simply roll the front panel right back to create an oval-type shelter – and thanks to its depth, you still have plenty of room to push your chair/bedchair right to the back, totally protecting you from the elements whilst still having room around the sides to selectively layout your luggage items how you want them. Or, throw on the optional overwrap and you’ve got a bivvy to take on any long session in total comfort.
