... Posted May 2, 2018 Report Posted May 2, 2018 Hi all...Dont know if there was a thread for this...but looming for a 2man Bivvy for me & my son....ive found 2 but look exactly the same by 2 different company's...2 different prices.. TF Gear Scout 2man..£99.99 NGT Fortress around £120 ish Both look EXACTLY the same...🤔🤔 Any thoughts from you guys on a 2man bivvy. Quote
dlc1964 Posted May 15, 2018 Report Posted May 15, 2018 Trakker Armo2 May be a bit pricey but well worth the extra, imho. Quote
