Product description
A serious Carinthia bivy cover for your sleeping bag. Made to comply with NATO standards, this Gore-Tex bag should meet any needs.
Being a military design item, this cover has all the necessary stuff you need and nothing more, all in a reliable, sensible package:
Features
- Made of tri-laminate Gore-Tex fabric: top layer 100% waterproofed polyamide, mid-layer PTFE (the membrane itself), bottom layer 100% polyamide.
- Zipper closure with fully waterproof zipper and storm flaps on both sides.
- Generously sized: takes in just about any sleeping bag, even the foot end has quite a lot of space. Measurements flat about 230 x 90 cm (7' 6.5" x 35.5").
- Weight 1 kg (2.2 lb), dimensions packed about 35 x 15 cm (14" x 6"). This does not even try to be one of those ultralight solutions, but rather a sturdy, reliable cover for demanding use.
Protects your sleeping bag not only from moisture but other abuse as well. In addition, a bivy cover makes your sleeping bag a tad warmer.
Complies with NATO standards, NSN 8340-41-000-2532.
Care
- If you really have to machine wash this, do it at 60°C / 140°F. However, if at all possible, avoid machine washing and do it by hand. Fortunately, these things don't even get seriously soiled easily.
- Avoid storing this wet. If possible, dry it before stuffing it into the provided packsack.
- If the cover needs to be repaired, we suggest using a proper patching kit. If one is not available, some duct tape should do in a pinch.

I purchased the D1 and Tropen and liners in qtys of 3 each and I was about to buy the Gortex covers.
As soon as they are available again I will buy one to 3.
