What Makes this Bivvy Bag Tent so Good?

1. The Vuno Austere includes hoops at both ends, providing more room inside and maintaining the bivvy’s shape. Water sheds off quickly.
2. The bottom is made of waterproof 210D oxford cloth, ensuring you stay dry at night. This durable material prevents waking up in a puddle.
3. The top layer, made from water-resistant polyester fiber, allows water to run off, keeping you dry.
4. Silicon-taped seams ensure no water sneaks through, and quality stitching offers long-term durability.
5. For extra breathability, leave the outer door open. A yarn mesh inner door keeps insects out.
6. Pair this bivvy bag with our Superlight ultralight air mattress (not included) for added comfort.
