The sleeping bag is definitely worth its price. Very warm and pleasant to the touch. Top quality. The zipper in the middle is a great solution, especially for people sleeping in a hammock. Tested on the ground at minus 3 degrees, and wearing only underwear, it provided thermal comfort. If it ever gets damaged, I know I will buy it again, I don't need to look for anything else. Although it is not ultralight, for Polish conditions and low mountains, this might be my last sleeping bag.
Carinthia Defence 4 Medium Sleeping Bag - MultiCam Black
A durable sleeping bag featuring MultiCam Black camouflage, mummy-shaped to ensure a comfy body position and ease of movement while resting. Constructed from premium polyamide, it has a sturdy exterior and is insulated with synthetic G-Loft filling.
Temperature range and usage conditions
Usage temperatures for the Defence 4 sleeping bag are established according to the EN 13537 standard:
- T-comfort: -8.8°C – the lowest temperature at which a woman can sleep comfortably throughout the night,
- T-limit: -15°C – the minimum temperature at which a man can sleep without discomfort,
- T-extreme: -35°C – the lowest survival temperature in the sleeping bag. Not advised for regular use.
G-Loft insulation, Thermoflect
Inside the sleeping bag, G-Loft synthetic down effectively preserves thermal comfort. This insulating material maintains its properties even after exposure to water, washing, or extensive use. The Thermoflect layer reflects body heat, trapping it within to enhance insulation efficiency. The outer shell is more spacious and doesn't directly contact the interior, forming an additional thermal barrier.
Sleeping Bag System - Tropen
The Defence 4 model functions effectively as an outer thermal layer when combined with other sleeping bags. This setup enhances thermal efficiency, promotes moisture wicking, and boosts thermal comfort even at temperatures as low as -20°C. The Sleeping Bag System - Tropen technology and contemporary materials ensure a low weight and compact size when packed.
Central zipper, Anti Snag system
The sleeping bag includes a centrally located two-way zipper for complete opening. To prevent the fabric from snagging, an Anti Snag system is installed. An insulated draft tube runs along the zipper to keep cold air out. A Velcro flap at the top secures the zipper against unintentional opening. The trapezoidal footbox design provides extra space for the feet and enhances thermal efficiency.
Integrated hood for cold protection
The model comes with a shaped hood featuring an adjustable face opening, which can be tailored with drawcords to improve protection against the cold.
Easy transport and storage
When compressed, the sleeping bag occupies a minimal space of 25 x 30 cm, with a weight of 1850 g, ensuring ease of transport and reducing the overall gear burden.
Set contents
The set comprises a compression sack equipped with snap buckles, safeguarding the sleeping bag during transport and offering protection from dirt and damage.

The sleeping bag stands out for its high quality, and thanks to the synthetic G-loft filling, it can be kept in a 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 tougher conditions, is carefully made, and is trouble-free to use. I highly recommend it.

This is an excellent sleeping bag – precisely sewn, lightweight for its size, and very warm. The compression sack is sensibly designed. The price matches the quality, though it's not a cheap product. I plan to buy another sleeping bag for my daughter. The description largely reflects the actual state, and I hope the remaining advantages will also be confirmed. To sum up: WORTH RECOMMENDING.

So far, the hiking equipment 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 sleep in a tent, it is definitely worth buying. I definitely recommend it.
