20D nylon with Water Repellent coating
Both the outer and inner layers are crafted from lightweight 20D nylon featuring WR impregnation (Water Repellent) to minimize moisture absorption. The interior includes a small pocket for tiny items and loops for attaching a thermal liner.
Duck down fill, H-shaped construction
Warmth and breathability are guaranteed by Polish duck down in a 91/9 ratio. The 700 cuin loft fill ensures excellent compression, allowing the bag to be packed into a compact form. H-shaped chambers keep the down evenly distributed. The drawcord footbox is equipped with an extra insulation layer to enhance foot warmth.
Left-side zipper, Anti-Bite system
Outfitted with a two-way zipper on the left side, enabling it to open from both the top and bottom for easy access. A fluorescent puller ensures convenient use in low-light conditions. The Anti-Bite system safeguards the fabric against getting caught in the zipper. A thermal baffle shields the zipper from the inside.
Integrated hood with cold protection, DUO drawcord
The 3D-shaped hood efficiently safeguards the head from losing heat and provides protection against wind and moisture. Featuring a Duo drawcord, it integrates both elasticity and an adjustment tape—allowing swift hand movement with the elastic, while the back tape facilitates easy loosening, which is beneficial for activities at nighttime.
