Click image to go to details Passion One Brand logo 344g 12ºC Down 100g, Crystal Down 97/3, 900+ cuin stitch through construction  

Insanely light summer bag which uses the highest fill power down available, +900, the Passion One also packs down to an astonishingly small 18 x 12cm diameter. The quality of construction is excellent but the real performance is in the down, as it is the highest possible quality then (providing it is allowed to loft correctly) it will deliver the highest warmth to weight ratio.

The lightest sleeping bag option from Mont-Bell, this 'climbers bag' functions very well as part of an ultralight sleeping system when the UL down garments are integrated or cached in your pack in case of an emergency bivouac. Stored loose and well lofted at UOG to retain the down's full lofting capability which is what keeps you warm.

Excellent Summer bag without a hood - but with a zipper that goes all the way down one side and round the boxed foot - this means it can be laid flat - ideal if you're the kind of person who doesn't like being trussed up in a sleeping bag.

HighLite Brand logo 455g 2ºC Down 225g of 850+ Fill Power Goose Down   While the horizontal seams are sewn-thru, the vertical seams are baffled with 1 1/2" netting to allow unimpeded loft so the effect of its 850+ goose down is fully realized. Its efficient cut not only reduces bulk and weight, but reduces excess internal volume so quick heating is realized! At only 455g / 16oz total weight, no other bag is as light, as warm, as well made or as handsome as our HighLite.

The SummerLite is a dream come true for lightweight backpacking fanatics.
