The sleeping bag is definitely worth its price. Very warm and pleasant to the touch. The quality is top notch. The zip in the middle is a great solution, especially for people sleeping in a hammock. Tested on the ground at a temperature of minus 3 degrees, wearing only underwear, it provided thermal comfort. If it ever gets damaged, I know I'll buy it again, I don't need to look for anything else. Although it's not ultralight, for Polish conditions and low mountains this may be my last sleeping bag.

Carinthia Defence 4 Medium Sleeping Bag - Olive
Durable sleeping bag in Olive color, mummy-shaped for a comfortable body position and freedom of movement during sleep. Made from high-quality polyamide, with a robust outer layer and synthetic G-Loft filling.
Temperature range and usage conditions
The usage temperatures of the Defence 4 sleeping bag are defined in accordance with EN 13537 standard:
- T-comfort: -8.8 C – the lowest temperature at which a woman can sleep comfortably through the night,
- T-limit: -15 C – the minimum temperature at which a man can sleep without discomfort,
- T-extreme: -35 C – the lowest temperature for survival in the sleeping bag. Not recommended for regular use.
G-Loft insulation, Thermoflect
The inside of the sleeping bag is filled with G-Loft synthetic down, which effectively helps maintain thermal comfort. The insulating material retains its properties even after contact with water, washing, or heavy use. The Thermoflect layer reflects body heat and traps it inside, improving insulation performance. The outer shell is larger and doesn’t stick directly to the interior, creating an extra thermal barrier.
Sleeping Bag System - Tropen
The Defence 4 model can be used in combination with other sleeping bags as an outer thermal layer. This configuration improves overall thermal efficiency, supports moisture wicking, and increases thermal comfort in temperatures down to -20 C. The Sleeping Bag System - Tropen technology and modern materials result in low weight and compact size when packed.
Central zipper, Anti Snag system
The sleeping bag features a two-way zipper placed centrally, allowing full opening. The Anti Snag system prevents fabric from getting caught in the zipper. Along the zipper, there is an insulated draft tube to block cold air. A Velcro flap at the top of the zipper prevents accidental opening. The trapezoidal footbox design offers more room for the feet and improves heat retention.
Integrated hood for cold protection
The model is equipped with a shaped hood with adjustable face opening that can be individually adjusted with drawcords to enhance cold protection.
Easy transport and storage
When packed, the sleeping bag takes up little space – 25 x 30 cm, and its weight is 1850 g, making it easy to carry and minimizing gear load.
Set contents
The set includes a compression sack with snap buckles that protects the sleeping bag during transport and shields it from dirt and damage.

G-Loft insulation
G-Loft insulation is an advanced material consisting of a three-dimensional structure of hollow polyester fibers that trap dry air to form an effective thermal insulation layer. These fibers retain their shape thanks to a memory effect, allowing them to return to their original form after getting wet, washing and he...
Anti Snag
Anti Snag is a technology used in sleeping bags to prevent the zipper from snagging. Thanks to the use of a special anti-snag tape along the zipper and an external protective strip, the risk of snagging the fabric when zipping or unzipping the sleeping bag is minimized. Such a solution not only makes it easier to op...
Thermoflect
Thermoflect is an innovative reflective material that enhances the thermal insulation properties of clothing and sleeping bags by reflecting the heat emitted by the body.

The sleeping bag stands out for its high quality and, thanks to the synthetic G-loft filling, it can be kept in the compression sack much longer than traditional down sleeping bags. G-loft does not clump and does not absorb moisture like natural down. Overall, the sleeping bag performs well in harsher conditions, is carefully made, and is easy to use. I definitely recommend it.

This is an excellent sleeping bag – precisely stitched, light for its size, and very warm. The compression sack is sensibly designed. The price matches the quality, although it is not a cheap product. I am planning to buy another sleeping bag for my daughter. The description largely reflects the actual condition, and I hope the other advantages will also be confirmed. In summary: WORTH RECOMMENDING.

So far, the equipment for tourism has been reliable, providing warmth and comfort in difficult conditions. I hope this sleeping bag will also meet these expectations and that the positive reviews are not exaggerated.

Durable and well-insulating sleeping bag. It works great in spring and autumn. It provides a lot of comfort during sleep. If you often camp in a tent, it is definitely worth buying. I highly recommend it.
