They'll probably be waiting for a ship to dock. Once here there'll be plenty of stock is my guess.
I've got the standard Hide XL and it's a decent piece of kit.

You will need to buy the infill and groundsheet seperately but be warned that the groundsheet is a little on the thin side. And would be nice if they did an overwrap as well. Or a utility front.

Personally I prefer the groundsheet to be as it is, rather than thicker and heavier.
I'm really surprised as well that they don't sell an overwrap or utility front, I'd have thought there'd be a decent number of people buy them.

I'd really like a Utility front for France trips so if its blazing hot or pouring down you have a nice little retreat to sit in. I like the Trakker Utility fronts but not sure if they are compatible with the newer Trakker bivvys.

Picked up a second hand XL Pro last night with both fronts, groundsheet and XL tarp. Set it up this morning, and really happy how quick it goes up. Pleased so far. Is there a knack on how to get it back in the bag? The front poles seem to cause an issue 🤣

Fold the bivvy up as normal, making sure to leave the tension strap hanging out of the end. The wrap the tension strap tightly around the outside of the bivvy from one end to the other.
This keeps it nice and compact and it'll go in the bag no bother.
Are you sure?

This action cannot be undone.

Yes, continue
