Was advised to buy one of these on a forum-
Ordered it yesterday, arrived today..
Just wanted to say a massive thanks.
Can’t wait to give it a go.
Will definatly point others in this direction…
I tried mine out recently - although the weather was scorching hot in the day I had been quite cold in my tent the night before as I was only using a lightweight synthetic bag and there was only me in the tent *sob*
Anyway, I was very snug in my Hunka, the only issue I had was that my 3/4 length Thermarest is too wide (I had this long before Alpkit came along) so I might have to get a Wee Airic to go with it, and perhaps a new bag too......
I ordered one of these ot go over my XL Apline dream 900. I ordered it at 17:10 one friday and it arrived by 9:30 the following morning. (usual tops service.) Unfortunatley the Hunka was too short and not wide enough to accomodate my XL sleeping bag and me. A real shame as it looed a really good bit of kit, especially for £25.
Can’t wait for a slightly bigger one to come along…
Excellent service and delivery. A first class product at a great price.
Thanks alpkit.
Just bought this (delivery excellent as usual)
so not had chance to try it outside.However the only weak part as I can see is the shoe lace used to close the bag,it is flimsy and akward to use
The rest seems first class
Features at a glance
- Waterproof - Yes, the fabric has a hydrostatic head of 10,000mm, basically like your tents groundsheet
- Breathable - Yes, the fabric has an MVP of 10,000g/m2/24hr
- Low weight and bulk - We weighed 10 and the average was 388g
- Intergral stuff pocket - On the base of the bag is a mesh bag that you fold the bivi bag into, so no stuffsack to lose
- Dual drawcord - You can close from either side or both so suitable for left and right handers and if you sleep on your front as I do then no toggle to press into your chest bone
- Hooded design - Although lighter, some of the more basic bivi bags don't offer quite the same usabilty. The hood design allows you to overlap the opening making it more weather proof, however this design only has a drawcord so in heavy and direct rain you may get wet. The shaped hood is also good in snowy bivis where loose snow tries to get in your bag all the time

Super-fast delivery. This is a quality piece of kit-seems to be hard wearing rip-stop material. (Not obvious from the pics/description). Tried it last night and stayed bone dry inside in the damp (misty rather than actual rain) with a heavy dew. Seems to be breathable enough, no noticable condensation at all, air temp was about 10 deg.c according to the met office.
Fantastic price, great bag.-Recommended. Thanks Alpkit!
