Product Description
A lightweight alternative to bulky tents, the Snugpak Stratosphere bivy is a formidable four-season companion for solo backcountry expeditions. A durable ripstop nylon with a waterproof polyurethane coating, the fabric is designed to reduce condensation by creating a semi-permeable membrane that only allows moisture to pass in one direction Read More
Where is this item manufactured? Anyone? I understand massdroop doesn't like to advertise which country with poor human and labor rights it is profiting from, but . . . .
seedeeveeSorry, originally linked to the wrong one. Snugpak states on their website that their regular bivvi is made in the UK. The Stratosphere does not seem to indicate.
A big fan of Snugpak gear in general and these were great, last century; but nowadays you can get a two person free standing tent that is substantially lighter than this from Big Agnes et al. Plus with Vendor shipping to NZ at $50 the price isn't too attractive either.
CuroarI used to have one and returned it for this very reason. Snugpak make some great gear, but I would not class this as one of them.
I use a Catoma EBNS now. Excellent ventilation, water dissipation and thermal retantion.
Europe (including the UK, at least until Brexit is completed), uses a comma in places where the US uses a decimal point. Europeans will read this metric (no pun intended) as 5.0 mm of poly coating.
"with 5,000mm waterproof polyurethane coating"
DAMN!
My math might be a bit off, but that's in the neighborhood of 16 feet of waterproof coating thickness, haha.
And the bottom thickness adds another 26 feet.
