We’re passionate about watersports and outdoor gear and get excited designing products that are market leading in both quality and performance.
Big Brand Quality At An Amazing Value
Here at Lomo we are dedicated to bringing you the best value wetsuits, dry bags, watersports and outdoor equipment that money can buy.
Our emergency shelter is used to provide some protection from the wind and rain when you are in the outdoors, without a tent.
It's ideal to take shelter when you might not have planned to and need refuge from bad weather.
It's lightweight, easy to carry and can be pulled over 2-3 people to help keep the elements off them in an emergency.
We designed the shelter with 2 airvent snorkels to aid ventilation and these can be adjusted or closed in heavy winds and rain.
Two people can sit inside the shelter and have enough room to face each other and still have an area in the middle to eat.
Three people in the shelter is a bit more crowded, especially with large rucksacks but in an emergency situation it is possible.
This type of emergency survival shelter is now commonly used when hill walking, mountain biking and kayaking as well as other outdoor sports.
Survivial Shelter Size (when erected)
The shelter comes in a handy pouch so it can be easily stored in your rucksack.
Pouch Size (when folded away)
The storm shelter is made from high visibility orange nylon material and features taped seams to make it watertight.
The bothy bag has 2 large retro reflective patches on the front to help reflect the torch light from a search party or helicopter searchlight.
A viewing window is also included in the design to let the occupants see out whilst keeping sheltered.
Customer Reviews, including Product Star Ratings, help customers to learn more about the product and decide whether it is the right product for them.
