Description
MEC down sleeping bags have been popular for decades and are waaay cheaper than comparable options. The Delphinus line uses high-end down and tightly woven Pertex that sheds moisture and prevents the down from working its way out. Vertical baffles over the chest keep the down in place, so you won't discover a cold spot during the night.
- Pertex Quantum ripstop nylon shell has a DWR treatment to shed moisture and a tight weave to retain down.
- 30-denier woven nylon lining.
- Insulated with 650 fill power duck down that meets the Responsible Down Standard for animal welfare.
- Vertical baffles over the torso prevent cold spots.
- Medium-width cut
- Hood and shoulder drawcords have different profiles, so you can tell them apart in the dark.
- YKK #8 zip connects to most other MEC bags.
- Neck yoke and draft tube keep heat in and cold out.
- Small internal pocket holds contact lenses or headlamp.
- Stuff sack and large storage sack included.
- EN standard tested, for dependable temperature ratings.
- Women's version is slightly wider around the hips, shorter, and has narrower shoulders so you're not losing heat to empty space. Extra insulation at the chest and around your feet.
