Synthetic fill

 

All our synthetic sleeping bags use X-Static® fibre as their first insulation layer, trapping warm air close to the body. This high-tech fill is made up of polyester short-staple fibre - short strands of high-denier filaments, making the bag soft, flexible and compressible -  which has been completely and permanently coated with pure silver. This coating gives the fibre many naturally occurring properties. In cold temperatures, most heat loss occurs through radiation; however, the silver coating reflects heat back from the fibre into the bag. Silver also reduces odour for two reasons: it is antimicrobial, so it makes your bag less attractive to micro-organisms which might otherwise make it their smelly home; and it neutralises ammonia and denatured proteins, two principle causes of stink. Silver also has anti-static properties, eliminating the static cling that can occur with other bags.For more information, visit www.x-staticfiber.com

Suspension system

Our warmer bags use an innovative and unique suspension system to increase thermal efficiency without weight and bulk. The system consists of three layers, varying in thickness in different models.

•    Internal layer of X-static® fibre reflects radiant heat and reduces odour.
•    Suspension mid layer: this lattice of loosely woven tubes of fibre traps pockets of warm air between the inner and outer layers.
•    Outer thermal barrier suspended by the mid layer.
