Our Verdict
RAB's Superlite Shelter 4 Sil Bothy uses lighter weight fabric to provide the same protection as the standard bothy but with less durability. This type of shelter is brilliant in use, with a person at each corner providing the support, sitting on waterproof nylon 'seats', the protection it affords is amazing - when its blowing a gale outside with wind and rain, inside is remarkably still, dry and warms up very quickly.
Billed as an emergency shelter its just as useful during a lunch-break when the weather's bad.
