Title: WTD: Down sleeping bag
Post by: Darragh on May 18, 2013, 07:43:41 PM

Hi,

I'm looking for a good quality down sleeping bag. Something light (not too far off a kilo) and warm (3 season), and should be quite long (I'm 6ft 3" or 190cm).

Thanks

Darragh

Thanks Jags,

Alpkit look really good, unfortunately the Pipedream is out of stock at the moment. The Skye High ones look good too and good price but might keep my eye out for something a bit lighter for a little while....

Thanks

Darragh,
I have a Pipedream for myself (5'11") and it is a good fit, not sure it fits over 6ft tall.
One of my sons (6'3") has a long Skye High 600 and he likes it.
