Prologic Commander Frame-X1 Low Profile Bivvy

It’s not often that we’re taken aback by a new shelter design, but lo and behold, Prologic has gone and produced one!

The Big Six

1 You’re mobile but sensible
Okay, so the Commander Frame-X1 Low Profile is nice and compact, without feeling cramped. But, and it’s a big but, its design and engineering mean that it’s still well able to repel some seriously bad weather, unlike some other flimsier compact shelters.

2 You’ve got an eye for design
You’ll have noticed the novel frame design then? The feat of design genius that was once the preserve of the likes of Chris Manifold alone. The clever hinged X frame is light, yet impressively robust and, crucially, it’s easy to set-up.

3 Your budget is more Stoke City than Manchester City
So you’ve got a middle-of-the road budget? Don’t worry: You can now afford a shelter that’s anything but middle of the road! For a very reasonable price you’ve got a fully functioning shelter with all mod cons!

4 Your shelter has to be versatile
Yep, we’re with you on this one. Luckily, the Frame-X Low Profile is adaptable enough that you won’t need more than one shelter for 90% of your fishing. With a detachable front panel, you can turn the consummate summer shelter into a winter fortress!

5 You don’t like a waste of space
You’ll like the footprint of the Low Profile then. The special flat-back design means that you can push your bed right up against the back ‘wall’, freeing up the rest of the internal space for all your worldly goods! In what is a compact shelter, the significance of this cannot be overstated!

From the man in the field: Adam Penning

“This is a unique concept providing a very solid, super compact and neat little shelter. With the overwrap it is big enough for a session and as it is, those doing ‘quick overnighters’ will find it absolutely perfect. Super thick fabric and modern hard-wearing fittings complete the look of what is a really impressive little bit of kit. In fact, it is so nice that my display model was stolen at Chantecoq!”
