Survival UK Forums

I bought two of these when they first came out from this shop 5 year ago, back then they came with a mattress included, my reason for posting this is just one item the wool green blanket top grade and very soft, I use mine daily and its still new looking, I have been kept very warm with it.

The thinner cotton sheet is just a bonus.

If you want the full sleep system then send them a email see if they have the mattress.

I found a picture of one complete with bed roll.

I'm old fashioned, I prefer a goretex bivy and arctic sleeping bag

But I do understand the appeal of this old retro type kit. I remember talking to a US Marine a few years ago...he collected old English bicycles and restored them...takes all sorts lol

So do I.

Reason for this thread was the wool green blanket

I bought one of these at a freezing race meet somewhere, might have been Santa Pod, it's kept me warm and dry on many occasions since. I like the fact I can walk around in it by folding the bottom section up, and it's good to be comfy if you have to wait for a nuisance fox.
