I can only dream of being as tall as 5' 8" and still find putting up the XL easy.

I'm 5'7”, and manage to put it up, although the first time I tried I struggled with the height, but you soon work around it. I'd have to say it really is the best bivvy I've had......... and I've had a few

I have the hide xl pro, its great when inside but imo a bad design with the door entrance so low compared to the actual full height, I'm only 5'8 but longer sessions using it my back is in bits

Thing is if the doorway was higher it wouldn't offer as much protection from the weather. Well unless you're the sort that has the door zipped up, which I'm not.

Well first weekend in the Hide XL pro and cannot complain. Even in a thunderstorm it was perfect. Put it up in seconds and packed down in seconds too. Condensation wasn't great but there isn't a single skinned biv on the market that can stop that, the vapourshield did it's job though. Enough room for my wide bedchair and chair. Very impressed for £220. All in all a pretty perfect weekend with a pair of mirrors on the zigs at 26 and 31lb.
Are you sure?

Yes, continue
