If Nash is so good, why does almost every Nash bivvy series have an MK2 and even an MK3 version, (usually due to water leaks or poor material) ?

I live 400 meters from the coast (Ostend) and I fish sometimes about 2.4km from the coast, the Frontier XD 165 high stands like a house in the strongest wind I have experienced this year when fishing, a Titan will survive this as well but a Frontier too

As I've already said they bring out ok 2/3 versions because people are silly enough to want the newest kit, nothing to do with leaks etc. Catering to the sheep. Nothing more. It's the same with all manufacturers and all kit. Look at the newest fox alarms for instance. Loads on here raving about how amazing their ntxrs were and that nothing else compares, then fox announce the new ones and all of a sudden those same people are pre ordering them.why? Because they offer something new and groundbreaking? Nope. Its because they want to be the guy with the flash new kit. Vanity sells a lot of kit these days

So the frontier has been out five minutes and you've used it three times but it's better than my T1 and my mates that has been on vast wind swept European waters in gales and torrential rain with no issue. Come back in a few years time when it's been tested properly.

I never sayed that the T1 is bad...

But a fact is:
Nash 40 years of experince with Bivvies, there last 2 bivvy series
Titan and Hide

Titan t1/2/3 needed a updated version due to water issues, many Hides have been recalled due to cloth issues and many Hides also have problems with their bars.

Nash hyped/overrated? 100%

No water issue with mine or several friends that own them. Your frontier and all the tempests are variations of the original titan design. Fox have a habit of copying other bivvy designs.

They all copy each others designs in one way or another.

I sold my titan tc and went for a tempest. I much prefer the set up pack down of the tempest. The titan felt much sturdier, but also weighed a lot more.

As long as it is a good copy then it is not a problem?

From Nash site:
Titan Mk2: Now featuring the innovative design tension bar with reverse clip from the Titan Camo – creating a storm peak that eliminates water pooling even in torrential conditions.

Hides Ask your shop how many recalls Nash did on the Hides because of cloth problems

And that with 40 years of bivvy experience...

No point arguing about it,you will always get people liking different makes and models and that's fine.It would be seriously boring if we all liked the same things,would I buy ANY Nash product again?No never not a chance.

I bought a Titan TC Pro the moment they came out. Hasn't missed a beat, so versatile, would highly recommend.
