“Gore tex is expensive especially in bivi bag size so a friend suggested I try Forces Uniform… very happy I did. I chose the Distressed range so it would be cheaper and reuse something that still has plenty of life in it. There are three repairs down near the foot of the bivi and they are excellent. Patches of the same material, professionally sewn with plenty of waterproof seam tape inside. I am delighted by my purchase and even in the recent heavy storm I didn’t get wet! Distressed is the way to go !”

“I kayak and climb and sleep outdoors between Northumberland, The Lakes, Scotland and Snowdonia. I was seeking a sleeping bag and a bivvy sack I can use in a tent or out in the open all year round. A recent trip was a Northumberland cave. I found this sleeping bag to be excellent quality, efficient design and it very much stood up to the job of providing comfort in the open air. There's also an option to purchase a carry-bag and I may go for this in future. Overall, I found this company 'Forces Uniform and Kit' very straightforward to deal with and their range of items, plus the cost, is fantastic. I am part of a community of outdoor enthusiasts who have also purchased or are now looking to but from this company. From an environmental viewpoint I found it environmentally-supportive that some of the items are pre-used. Both the sleeping bag and bivvy sack I purchased were ex-military kit and each in superb condition after a spin in the washer. From an environment, cost and performance viewpoint, I very much recommend this outlet for this type of gear.
