I see Wychwood are launching a Tactical Brolly and Bivvy.

I don't suppose anyone saw the brolly at the Northern Angling show? Looks Awesome but not sure about the height. I've seen the video for it but it looks a bit lower then what they have said the height is, I could be wrong.

Total carp and carpology have both done one now, have to say it looks decent as does the bivvy

Cheers mate

Edit: Not sure about the green/camo combo but the brolly looks decent. Not quite as light as I'd have liked but at least its another addition to the lightweight options.

No worries mate, I agree does look a bit odd lol but then again I've seen loads of customised brollies and bivvies where people have a mix so I guess there is a market for it. Really like the wide doors though, perfect for getting my fat bum through lol

Quite like the look of them, each to their own I guess.

The other weird thing is they don't mention the depth of the Bivvy only the height and width.

Either the fella in the video is the size of Tyson Fury or it's door height will e that of the Titan Hide which would be a real shame for people over 5ft7

in that case, seems pretty decent. Hopefully they will have both the brolly and Bivvy at the Big One Farnborough

Does anyone know what sized frame the tactical brolly is built on, is it 55inch? Trying to work out the pack down length as it doesn't seem to be listed on line

Is it 55” side and 50” front and back does anyone know? Or does anyone know of a brolly with these dimensions?
Are you sure?
