zipper footbox down mummy bags? on 09/18/2011 12:53:56 MDT Print View

Need a list of quality, light down mummy bags with a zipper in the footbox. Currently have a Kelty Lightyear Down 20 degree bag that has a footbox zipper, and I need to buy one for my girlfriend for an upcoming trip. Kelty doesn't show a footbox zipper on the specifications listing on their site and they have changed some cosmetics on the bag so I'm not sure if they ditched the footbox zipper. Zipper is necessary since I'm a hammocker and pull the bag around the hammock like a peapod for wonderful warmth. Can anybody provide a list of 20 degree or warmer down bags with footbox zippers? And can anybody confirm whether the current model Kelty Lightyear Down 20 degree bag has a footbox zipper anymore? Thanks.

Are you familiar with the Rock Wren and Winter Wren made my Feathered Friends? They have a drawstring at the foot.

My vote goes to Nitro 30 by Sierra Designs. Right now it's around $200 on campsaver. For 800 Fill down bag in my opinion it is a good buy.

the big JRB quilts can be used that way.
