Very disappointed with TFT. Ordered in September and then told after their first delivery of the Frontiers that they had under ordered and they did not know when the next lot would be in ! I am sure I would have still been waiting if Vale Royal had not saved the day !!!!!!

I am very difficult to please, but the material feels strong and the fittings were superb. The elbow joints are so easy to put together and click faultlessly in to place. I also love the way that the bivvy stands up after you pull all the arms out allowing you to peg it slowly and precisely. The height is also a plus. I have the XD with inner dome. 165cm is comfortable for me to live with, especially being partially disabled. The other aspect i like is in the winter, its easy to add the winter wrap, click the 3 poles in to place, roll back and peg, instead of pulling the wrap all over the place to peg it ! All in all I think it is a winner. If there is anyone in the Norfolk area that wants to have a look before buying please pm me, would be happy to oblige.

No One can use them over night yet for a decent time so that might be a reason, not slating the frontier just saying that might be why, every bivvy ever made always has a couple come back

I must admit I keep looking at this bivvy despite telling myself each time that it is Fox and to just walk away.... ....why oh why do they persist with ****ty clip in groundsheets though?

This is an example of what social scientists call the 'Supabrolly Effect'. A perfect storm of group hysteria whipped up by clever marketing and social media. And fuelled by a group of anglers suffering from collective amnesia.

I compared the Frontier XD in shop side by side with the Titan T1, pioneer 100, tempest 150, the where all 4 in shop next to each other (my budget was 1000euro)

I am 100% sure that I made the best choice with the Frontier XD, the marketing of Fox about the Frontier is a joke (yeah right 5 years to development lol ) but the Frontier is Top
