Anyone running this bag? Seems like a pretty decent bargain, but I have no experience with Big Agnes bags. My Big Agnes tent rocks, but curious as to how this sleeping bag stacks up. Its a 700 DownTek vs. the 800 or 850 fill of similar products. ??
Specs Below:
We are proud to introduce a Traditional Mummy down sleeping bag line featuring DownTek™ water repellent down. DownTek™ transforms down into a water repellant, anti-microbial and anti-bacterial insulation material. Even in the wettest of conditions, DownTek™ repels water while maintaining loft, insulation value and breathability.
Traditional mummy shaped bags without the pad sleeve
70"/178cm YKK #8 zipper
Interior fabric loops for sleeping bag liners
Mate together left and right zip bags
Mesh storage sack & nylon stuff sack
No-draft collar seals around neck to keep cold air from sneaking in
No-draft wedge insulates the connection between the bag and pad
No-draft zipper tube insulates along the length of the zipper
Flow™ Construction: Insotect Flow™ is a flow-optimized insulation system that delivers uniform heat distribution and natural body contouring through its revolutionary baffle design. Flow Construction eliminates lateral and vertical down shifting by using vertical chambers with Flow Gates to regulate fill positioning and density. Strategically placed Flow Gates minimize vertical down shifting while vertical chambers minimize lateral shifting. With continuous vertical Flow chambers in place of traditional side seams, Flow bags eliminate potential cold spots which can occur with side seams. Vertical baffles now flow with your body for more rapid and uniform body heat distribution.
LEFT OR RIGHT ZIPPER? When you are in the bag, on your back, the right zip will be on your right side, left zip on your left side
