First Impressions: Fox Warrior Hood Bivvy and Skin - 26/03/2010
Continuing on the budget theme, this latest bivvy from Fox offers quite astounding value for money.
For just a penny less than 235 quid you get a full-blown pram-hood bivvy complete with groundsheet and pegs, as well as the dedicated winter skin. I remember, and it wasn’t that long ago, that a reasonable pram-hood bivvy from any company would probably set you back at least £200 more than that with the skin.
Buying a cheap bivvy these days is not difficult, but what do you actually get for your money? Well, with the Warrior Hood you get it all, with good-quality outer material, reinforced joints, sturdy bars and tape-sealed seams throughout. What’s more, you get the peace of mind knowing that it’s made by one of the UK’s leading manufacturers. For the money, I doubt that you could really ask for any more than that and I think today’s carp anglers will be falling over themselves to get a look at, and buy, one of these. Whatever the weather, it’ll keep you safe and dry and carries a marque of quality.
