GONE!!!

For Swap: a dutch army bivvy bag.

Specifications:
- Wind and waterproof
- Breathable
- Olive green
- 185cm long: there is a slit at the top, through which you can stick your head.
- Vertical zip (YKK), apprx. 135cm long on the belly
- Stormflap with metal press studs
- Seams taped with Gore-seam
- Waterproof stuff bag (with drawstring closure) for transport, with plenty of room to store other goods. Attached to the bivvy itself
- New (war stock), never been used: excellent condition.
- Retail price 98 Euro (70 GBP)

Note that there are several versions of the dutch army bivvy bag on the market! This version has a smaller storm flap and a stuff bag attached to it at the top end of the bivvy. Make sure this is the version is the one you're after.

I'd suggest this bag would only be ideal for a person smaller than 180 cm, since the bag is 185cm long - in that way you make sure you fit in with all body parts, and nothing sticks out ;)

Johan,

I'd love to help you, but for three reasons.

1) As opposed to a dutch army bivvy bag, what I REALLY want is a dutch gore-tex jacket liner that I can mate my Ventile with.

2) SealSkinz are dirt cheap in Canada, there's about 4 stores here in town that carry them.

3) Just that. I live in Canada, you're in the Netherlands.

Sorry!

Sealskinz are about £20 - £29 in the good old, taxing you plenty GB.
