Outdoor Research Highland Bivy Sack
The Highland bivy sack from Outdoor Research balances waterproofness with breathability. It features a single pole that holds the bivy away from your face and a high-volume foot section. 2.5-layer Pertex® Shield DS (Direct to Skin) stretch ripstop fabric is highly breathable, waterproof and wind resistant; it's also flexible and lightweight.
