Hybrid bag opinions? Nunatak

I don't have any experience, but Jan definitely seems to know what he's doing. And I've seen a lot of people talk about using a Woobie or synthetic over a down bag to draw the moisture up.

I do have a vest by him, and it's impeccably made. I would like to have him do a 15 down quilt with a separate synthetic to go over it for really cold weather. He can pair them up so they are made ot fit.
 
Thanks will definitely keep investigating
Quality looks great.
I'll go search on the woobie and see if more info on the combo
 
Using a synthetic layer over a down one definitely works. I've been putting a 40* apex throw over my 20* down quilt but I'm really itching for one of those hybrid Nunatak quilts.

I’m sure Jan has some good thoughts on why this is a good combo but it seems overly fiddly to me compared to a straight synthetic or down option. Having 2 shells adds unnecessary weight.

If you’re below 15 degrees, are you worried about moisture enough to need synthetic?

I thought the weight was comparable to his down quilts. Am looking to add a quilt in the 20 -25 degree range , we get storms unexpectedly sometimes and condensation from tepee. thought the part synthetic would be good at times.
 
I would call and talk to him. He has a ton of weatherproof shell selections too that might make pure down workable for you in those conditions.

I just had him add some down to an EE quilt, and the experience as first rate.
