Sleeping Bag ORTOVOX Bivy Single Adult Rectangular 280g Blue Orange

The ORTOVOX Bivy Single Adult Rectangular 280g Blue Orange is a lightweight emergency and shelter solution for outdoor activities. Weighing approximately 280 g, this single-person rectangular bivy bag is made from polyurethane-coated fabric that provides water and dirt resistance while remaining compact for easy transport. The bright orange interior adds visibility in low-light or emergency situations, and the rolltop stowaway bag helps compress the bivy for efficient packing on day tours, alpine routes or multi-day excursions.

Advantages

The bivy bag combines low weight and compact size with a durable PU-coated outer material that resists water and dirt. Its rectangular shape gives more internal space for a sleeping bag and movement compared with tighter mummy-style bivies. The high-visibility orange color improves detectability in emergency scenarios, while the included compressible rolltop stowaway bag keeps the item small in a backpack. The construction is windproof and intended for use as either a protective cover over a sleeping bag or as primary emergency shelter.

Suitable for

• Day tours and hiking where minimal shelter is needed
• Alpine and mountaineering routes as an emergency bivouac option
• Backpacking and multi-day treks requiring lightweight backup protection
• Emergency kits for roadside, boating or winter activities

Key specifications

How to use

Unpack the bivy bag from its rolltop stowaway sack and fully extend the rectangular shelter. Insert your sleeping bag or lie directly inside for emergency protection; position the opening to facilitate ventilation and access. Use the rolltop closure to seal the bivy when required to reduce wind infiltration and to retain body heat. After use, clean off visible dirt, allow the material to dry thoroughly, and refold or roll the bag into the stowaway pouch for storage.

Usage recommendations

Use the bivy as a supplemental layer together with an insulated sleeping bag for improved thermal performance. Avoid prolonged exposure to heavy rain; the PU coating provides resistance but is not a substitute for fully waterproof shelters. Store dry and away from direct sunlight to preserve the PU coating and material strength.
