Style

The mummy shape optimises thermal insulation (no loss of heat because there is not much air flow or draughts) and saves space, which means that your movements are fairly restricted.

The advantages of a duck down and feather filling

The filling power of down has 3 advantages for mountain sports:

– Thermal insulation thanks to the air trapped in the down and feathers

– Ultra low weight: down is lighter than synthetic wadding while offering the same degree of warmth. This saves even more weight in your backpack

– Ultra-compressible.

How to measure the fill power of a down and feather wadding?

The fill power is a measure of the down’s thermal insulation capacity and its potential to “trap” air. It is expressed in CUIN (cubic inches).

So, down with a higher fill power (higher CUIN number) will occupy more space, trap more air and provide greater thermal insulation.

For this sleeping bag with its 90% down / 10% feathers filling, the fill power is guaranteed to be 800 CUIN or more (international IDFB standard).
