Anyone seen these, and what do you think?

I really want one for the XD, but at £500 they are on the pricey side.

The new bivvy market is a genius money spinner now.

First they sell you a door without mesh so you have to buy a separate mozzy mesh door.
Then they convince everyone they need to wrap their bivvy up in another layer to keep it cool/warm/dry
Then everyone needs a little hat for their bivvy to stay cool/warm/dry
Then everyone needs a capsule to keep the naughty spiders out
Now they will sell you a caravan club extension for £500 so you can buy more stuff to fill it with.

Each to their own comforts, but I'll stick to my brolly.

Price is ridiculous I was going to get the X version for when my daughter comes but not at this price, even if you look at the tempest versions even the aquatexx version ain't this much

I wasn't referencing the Fox models in particular, they are all on the bandwagon. Fox just seem to be taking the pricing to the extreme in this case.

Bit of a niche product really....The Trakker social caps are being sold off cheap now so you would assume they didnt sell very well...

Exactly mate but unfortunately she won't stay in a bivvy on her own just yet, but at the price of this extension I might aswell just buy a separate 2 man bivvy. Can get a decent one for around half that

The Trakker social caps weren't cheap in the beginning either and you got one made for hobbits looking at the height + Fox Deluxe Extension is with groundsheet + mesh side/door option.

Cant wait to get mine.

The Armo 2 man in the classifieds (not mine) would be perfect. You could flog the wrap and reduce the cost even more.
Are you sure?

This action cannot be undone.

Yes, continue
