If you're looking at this bag, it's because you're intrigued by shell fabric, right? Right. So, let's cut right to the chase: the MemBrain fabric WORKS. Now, it won't keep you…

This bag got the job done. I used it for 2 weeks of trekking in Nepal and it never let me down. Temps probably never got down to 15F but were definitely in the 20's 30's and…

Super light, super soft, nice and warm when you need it. But it also has a full zip so it is also very flexible. Sometimes I use it as a quilt or if it's warm out I just sle…

I am 6'1" and 235 and this bag is loose on me. It has met every expectation I had including the temp rating. At anything above 60 degrees and the bag is too hot which makes it…

I purchased the Plasma 30 because I was looking for a way to lighten by pack. Though it feels delicate, I found to be tougher than it appears and held up beautifully durin…

I'm not so sure about the 30 degree rating... maybe more like 35. This is my first down bag, so there is a bit of learning curve about getting the down to fill the baffles ju…

This is one of the best gear purchases I have ever made. I have tested it to -17 without a tent and I slept comfortably all night. Lofts as well as the day I bought it. Use…
