[FS Geelong VIC] Post OZ wide UL half bag / booster

Mon 24 Jul, 2017 11:26 am

Having decided on a new sleeping system and having bought a much warmer bag I am selling on Mikes UL half bag.
My metabolism isn't as good as it used to be so I totally underestimated my needs.
270 grams in the stuff sac, averaging an inch 25mm of insulation / 55mm of total loft and from memort 100 grams of Mikes best down
A superbly sewn item and a multi purpose bit of kit.
A good childs UL summer bag, an emergency use lifesaver in the bottom of you daypack when combined with a bivvy bag but the best use would be as a wartm booster for a LW or mdium weight sleeping bag to give a 5C to 8C boost for extension into the white season.
Bag is clean, always stored loose, comes from a cigarette free home and is as new having only been used a few times.
Stuff sac is ~2 litre but will compress if needed to about a half litre
Photos show it next to my new $600- half bag from Brooks Range.
I'm asking $120- posted for a quick sale

Just had a look at my notes and this has 125g of 800 fill down and was made in early 2015 before I was formally offering any products. Would indeed be a good booster or could be used on its own with a LW down jacket in summer depending on your location.

Thanx for that, the longer it sits on the bed the better the loft becomes too. Approcahing 80mm now But Cecile says I have to destash and as this is the least warm of my bags it is first off the rank.
It is a really nice bag, it got a lot of good comments at the Mt Franklin gathering

Thanks MD. Perhaps this might just be what I need and I have more chance of keeping this than the OR pants that my wife borrowed!
