I'm looking for information / opinions on the various types of bivy openings. Oware has a decently light, priced right drawcord style bivy … but most of the experiences I've read of are of the latter two types of bivies. Will Drawcord keep out bugs adequately? Assuming I get the Oware drawcord bivy with the top 1/4 made of mesh, will I be able to pull it back during times of low bugs and still have my bottom layer of silnylon under me (it seems a side zip would work better for that).
How easy do you find it to enter chest zip style bivies, such as the MLD Soul Bivy?
Does anyone have experience with both chest zip and side zip, such as MLD Soul Bivy vs. MLD Soul Bivy Side Zip?
Thanks!
