Review Katabatic Flex 15F Quilt Down Sleeping Bag Overfill + 8oz

A blanket style 15 degree sleeping bag that will truly keep the cold out. The Katabatic attachment system, down filled collar, and draft blocking foot box closure guard you from the cold. When you need some ventilation, the zippered foot box allows you to completely open to a blanket. The options in between are endless, and create a truly flexible sleep system. Elastic Binding Around Bottom Opening - Elastic binding around the bottom opening prevents gaps and drafts at the sleeping pad. Differential Cut - A critical factor in quilt style bags with adjustable girth, differential cut allows for maximum loft from our premium down. Continuous Baffles - With continuous baffles the down can be manually moved as temperatures dictate for maximum versatility. Down Filled Collar - Our overstuffed collar fits comfortably against your neck to seal this critical area from drafts. Draft Blocking Foot Box Closure - When the temperature drops, and you need a closed foot box, our down-filled draft blocker and snap system fill the gaps, while allowing multiple venting options for warmer weather. Internal Stash Pocket - Keep your phone warm and easy to find, or keep your water filter from freezing. Overstuffed Baffles over the Foot Section - Provides extra insulation over your feet to ensure toasty toes. Overfill Available Shell imported. Designed, filled, finished and stringently inspected in Colorado. ************************* EXPEDRY™ WATER-RESISTANT DOWN We are pleased to offer ExpeDRY™ ultra dry down. This down has been treated to provide additional resistance to unwanted moisture. In conjunction with our highly water-resistant shell materials, ExpeDRY™ provides extra peace of mind, and dries faster than untreated down if it does get wet. Is this a miracle water-proofing that will allow you to sleep out in the rain or dunk your bag in water with wild abandon? No. Will it give you extra protection and help maintain loft in damp conditions? Absolutely! Produced for us here in the U.S. by Allied Feather. Available in 900fp goose down and 850fp duck down. =========================== RESPONSIBLY SOURCED DOWN Like many of our customers, we at Katabatic Gear are concerned with the environmental and animal welfare impact of our products. We are dedicated to a responsibly sourced, and very high quality product, just like our down supplier, Allied Feather and Down. They are certified through both the bluesign®and Responsible Down Standard®programs. Another reason we partner with Allied: we can offer our customers access to the Track My Down program. It allows our customers to learn everything there is to know about the down in their specific quilt. ================================== PERTEX QUANTUM ECO RIPSTOP (.85 OZ/YD) The best fabric you’ll find for the shell of an ultralight sleeping bag. Keeps your insulation drier: Best DWR we’ve tested Keeps your insulation loftier: Lightweight, soft, breathable, and downproof Reduces demand for raw materials: Eco version of Pertex Quantum is made from recycled yarns and maintains the fabric’s advanced performance qualities ________________________________________ PERTEX QUANTUM TAFFETA (1.0 OZ/YD) The softest fabric you’ll find for the liner of an ultralight sleeping bag. This Pertex Quantum plain weave makes for a silky soft liner fabric on the inside of our quilts. We get tons of customer feedback stating that it’s the most comfortable sleeping bag fabric to ever brush up against them – not as clammy or crinkly as other fabrics. ___________________________________ QUILT STYLE SLEEPING BAG The idea behind a quilt style sleeping bag is to eliminate the insulation from the bottom of a conventional sleeping bag. Why? Insulation must have loft and trap air in order to be effective. Since any insulation beneath your body gets crushed, it is wasted. So why not leave the insulation (and the fabric and all that weight) out of the bottom of the bag? This is what a quilt style sleeping bag does, but it goes one step further. When a quilt style sleeping bag is designed well, versatility is significantly increased. Our patented pad attachment system and elasticized edging keep your body heat in and the cold drafts out. When conditions are warm, lay the quilt over you like a blanket and allow some ventilation. There are numerous variations in between, making our quilts comfortable in a much wider range of temperatures than a traditional sleeping bag. Another huge benefit of a well designed quilt: you can toss and turn and roll around without getting tangled up or rolling off your pad!
