S.O.L Survive Outdoors Longer

Escape Bivvy

What Our Gearhead® Experts Are Saying:

"I carry the Escape Bivvy on every single day hike as part of my ten essentials kit, and the fact that it weighs almost nothing and packs down to the size of a fist means there is genuinely no reason not to. I tested it on a cold night out and the reflective lining made a noticeable difference in how warm I stayed compared to a standard emergency blanket."

Nobody plans to spend an unscheduled night on a mountain, but the people who come out of those situations well are the ones who planned for the possibility anyway. The S.O.L Escape Bivvy weighs just 8.5 ounces and packs down small enough to disappear into any daypack, which means carrying it costs you almost nothing while the protection it provides is considerable. The vacuum-metalized aluminum coating reflects 75% of your radiated body heat back to you, turning an otherwise dangerous situation into a manageable one while you wait out a storm or navigate your way back to the trailhead. What separates the Escape Bivvy from a standard emergency blanket is the spun-bonded olefin construction, a breathable material that prevents the clammy condensation buildup that makes most reflective shelters deeply uncomfortable over time.

The fabric is tear and puncture resistant so it holds up to the rough handling that comes with real emergency use, and the 84 by 31 inch floor dimension gives you enough room to shelter your full body without feeling like you are wrapped in a crinkly tube. At 8.5 ounces with a lifetime warranty behind it, the Escape Bivvy is the easiest addition you can make to a safety-conscious kit.
