Ultralight bivy protection for fast-and-light trips

An ultralight, waterproof and breathable bivy with a clamshell opening for fast-and-light nights out.

The Outdoor Research Helium Bivy is built for nights when keeping pack weight down matters, without giving up the basic protection you want from a bivy bag. It uses the brand’s Helium fabric with Diamond Fuse technology and a clamshell opening that makes getting in and out less awkward than a more closed design.

The listed finish is Slate and the selected size is One Size.

Materials and weather protection

  • bluesign approved Pertex Shield Diamond Fuse 2.5L 100% nylon upper
  • 30D ripstop upper and a 40D nylon floor with TPU lamination
  • Waterproof, breathable and fully seam-taped construction
  • bluesign approved 100% polyester mesh with no-see-um mesh detailing

Design details that matter on the trail

  • Single-pole system
  • Reflective logo and trims
  • Two stake loops and one guy line loop
  • High-volume toe end
  • Two internal fly fasteners

This is aimed at people who want a compact shelter layer for fast-moving trips and minimal setups. The clamshell opening and mesh details should make it feel more manageable for short overnights or emergency use, while the seam-taped waterproof build gives it a more serious feel than a simple cover.

Because bivy bags are inherently snug, it is worth checking that this style suits how you sleep and how much room you prefer around you.
