I have a Outdoor Research Alpine bivy for sale, it's been used no more than 4 nights and other than the 2 mods that I will list shortly, is like brand new.
I have sown a button on the very lower edge of the outer lip to hold the lid up when not needed, the positioning of this button will never cause issue with leakage.
I had the foot end of the bivy modified(by a professional tent repairer) with a flap to allow extra ventilation, the vent is covered by no see-um mesh inside and has been fully seam sealed. Although I haven't used the bivy since I modified it, I just laid it in the back yard now and had someone spray water over the modified area while I was inside with a torch and found no ingress of water through the seams. I've only included photos of the modifications as the rest of the bivy is as new, it's never been put on the ground without a ground sheet.
Asking $90 + shipping.
