It's hard to assess the quality right after purchase – I hope that a branded product will meet expectations. Unfortunately, I am disappointed with the information provided by Carinthia – the technical data is imprecise. The manufacturer declares a weight of 1050 g and a pack size of 18x25 cm, which was very important to me – I wanted a sleeping bag lighter or smaller than the summer MON model, with a comparable temperature range. It turned out that the product is heavier and has larger packed dimensions than the manufacturer claims. The MON weighs 1200 g, and the Defence 1 Top Medium as much as 1300 g, even though the declarations state 1150 g. The size after compression is 20x34 cm instead of the promised 18x25 cm – even after strong compression, I can only achieve 19x30 cm. I wonder if the temperature ranges provided by the manufacturer are just as inaccurate... When buying an expensive product, I expect reliable specifications from the manufacturer.

Carinthia Defense Top 1 Medium Sleeping Bag - Olive
Olive-colored, waterproof, and lightweight sleeping bag featuring a mummy-shaped design for all-season use. Its ergonomic shape provides optimal body alignment and allows for free movement while sleeping. Crafted from durable Shellproof polyamide, the sturdy exterior and G-Loft insulation offer excellent protection against harsh weather conditions.
Temperature range and usage conditions
The usage temperatures of the Defence Top 1 sleeping bag are specified according to EN 13537 standard:
- T-limit: 4 C – minimum temperature at which a man can sleep through the night without discomfort,
- T-extreme: -10 C – lowest temperature for survival in the sleeping bag. Not recommended for standard use.
Shellproof polyamide
The sleeping bag's exterior and interior layers are crafted from Shellproof polyamide, a material made from nylon microfibers with a microporous design, offering excellent resistance to moisture and mechanical damage.
G-Loft insulation, Thermoflect
The inside is equipped with G-Loft synthetic insulation, ensuring effective thermal protection. The dual-layer design maintains its insulating capabilities even in wet conditions, after washing, or during heavy use. The Thermoflect layer reflects body heat, keeping it trapped inside. An additional insulating barrier is created as the outer shell is separated from the interior layer.
Central zipper, Anti Snag system
The sleeping bag features a central, two-way zipper for full opening. The Anti Snag system prevents fabric from getting caught in the zipper. Along the zipper runs an insulated flap that reduces cold penetration. A Velcro tab at the top of the zipper prevents accidental unzipping during sleep. The trapezoidal foot section improves thermal comfort and offers more legroom.
Integrated hood for cold protection
This model is equipped with an anatomically shaped hood with an adjustable face opening, allowing individual adjustment using drawcords.
Easy transport and storage
When packed, the sleeping bag takes up little space, making transport and storage easier. Compressed dimensions are 18 x 25 cm, and the weight is 1190 g, making it an ideal choice for trips with limited packing space.
Set contents
A compression sack with quick-release buckles is included, ensuring the sleeping bag remains protected during travel and is safeguarded from dirt and damage.
