It appears to be no more than a PU nylon sack, which means it isn't breathable (think the same material as your nan's pack-a-mac). It really is that cheap for a reason ... you would likely drown in condensation if you ever slept in it.
I know you haven't any money but you can sometimes turn up Hunka's for around £20 or something ex MOD.

You got mail (private message anyway) Might be able to sort you out with something a bit better than that bin bag.

Good advice , I had one a few years back and though waterproof it is not breathable at all I awoke soaked and that was on a dry night with the top open fully.Bearbonesnorm wrote:It appears to be no more than a PU nylon sack, which means it isn't breathable (think the same material as your nan's pack-a-mac).
