 Isn't this a lighter version of the old Zdarsky sack?
Looks a bit "out there" though...but 11 out of 10 for creative thinking.

 Whos that beautifal man in the picture???
He's luurvly
|
|
 he's not the messiah...
[altogether now]
....He's a very naughty boy!

'To wear it as garment, you simply hitch up your skirts and tighten the bottom drawcord around your waist...'
You'd look like a high-tech Mahatma Ghandi.
|
|
That would obviously be because of the lack of gut, the gaunt face, and the sandals, right?
|
|
 There does seem to be rather a lot of excess material hanging around in anorak mode. Not quite a Beckham-stylee sarong as far as style goes. But hey, who cares about aesthetics?
|
|
Perhaps they are really designed for bloaters.
|
|
 Enter Olney, stage right...
|
|
You could quite easily fit a bloater in there with you, if you were that way inclined(?).
For health and safety reasons I would not recommend carrying your bloater over long distances as this could lead to problems with your lower back.
It would save carrying a thermarest though...
|
|
Bloody hell... Olney is NOT getting in mine with me!
|
|
...and if you had the right sized pole, you could make it into a tent ;o)

Are you saying that you are the proud owner of a Bivanorac John?
Good to see that the spirit of adventure is alive and well

<smut option off>
Not going there Chris....
|
|
Not yet but I might...
|
|
 I hope the SEALS version is a little more discreet...
|
|
All Hilleberg stuff comes in red or green, I think. The Bivanorak is the same and I guess the Navy Seals went for red, because they're American...
|
|
..and a big 'shoot me' target on the side...
|
|
Hmm, well the thing might save someone's life one day, but the people round them will die laughing.
|
|
Can you use it for paragliding aswell ? i.e. spread your arms out and jump off Shining Tor.
|
|
From a purely personal point of view, when you put it on, and pull the hood up, you become Kenny from South Park - an orange hood with tunnel vision.
I kept catching myself looking out for fat women fallign from the roof space, out of control trucks, martians, and rats.
Very scary.
