Locus Gear Pneuma vs Rab Alpine Bivy comparison?

Anyone got an opinion? How could I glue a loop on top of the Rab bivy?

You could use a Zpacks stick on loop? Or Treadlite Gear in the UK also sell something similar.

I owned a Rab Alpine for a few months. Sold it on.  Sub optimal entry design.

I’ve owned about 8 different WPB bivis since the 90s  And used even more.

I personally very much dislike the type of entrance on both these bivis.   The perimeter zip means that unless it is mostly closed, the top end of the floor is free and any movement, it easily gets dislodged and you end up with your head in the dirt/snow.

For me, a bivi with a hood is much better in real world use. Whether simple drawstring or with chest (and side) zip. The latter means space for storage of small items/clothing at night too .

Thanks for the answer! What are you using now?

I have 3 MVP bivis at present.

My bivi usage is probably different from yours. In mountains I/we use mostly Tarptent models or a Trailstar. I dont often do  true snowy 4 season camping.

I bivi for ease of pitch finding and/or stealth on countryside and beaches. Overnighters or multiday trails.

The lightest is an Alpkit Hunka XL. I rarely use it as it is the least breathable and least tough.

For hills, I now use a Rab Ridge Raider – heavy as a tent!  But reliable. Did 7 nights straight in August on a local 100 mile long distance path,  first 2 rained all night. All good.

For general bivvying I use an old UK army goretex – tough but roomy.

Previously I had a Rab Sierra (AKA Integral Designs Bugaboo)  but swapped it with another guy for the Ridge Raider. That was great too.
