I've had zip off fronts on brollies and found them
To be a fiddly arse ache. Hands and knees
In a bivvy is not going to suit me.

Either way it's still well over 4 feet tall, plenty tall enough for the average angler surely?

Must admit 135H seems high enough to me as you spend 99.9% time sat in it.......

Exactly mate, not sure what these lads who want extra tall bivvies do in them tbh. Plus much taller and they turn into superb wind socks...

God knows?? As long as you can sit on a bedchair with a bedchair buddy without your head touching the top then should be no real requirement for 1 man bivvys being 160+ in height.......

Some do gerry yes, but you are in the minority by the sound of it mate. The companies cater for the masses, not the minority. It wouldn't make good business sense for them to cater for the smaller market. Something like this, cyprinus are aiming for the mass market, tempest type bivvy users. You may find that if this is a success then they bring out a taller version like nash have with the hide

£849 RRP ? 😮 Cyprinus are taking the pi55.I would love to know how they justify that.
As they have only one retail outlet now,are they recommending that price to themselves?
Are you sure?

This action cannot be undone.

Yes, continue
