Features: From Vango

Off-Set Double Layer Construction - Stitching is offset so cold spots don't form at the stitch lines. The layers are separated using an interlining layer to stop the fill snagging or lumping in the bag
40 denier ripstop nylon shell - soft to the touch and breathable for comfort. The abrasion resistant and durable qualities of nylon ensure a long lasting sleeping bag while the water resistant finish keeps
condensation on the outside of the shell, keeping the insulation dry.
Supersoft mini ripstop nylon lining - Warm and comfortable against the body
Our Thermal Embrace System utilises elasticated thread in the lining to enable the sleeping bag to hug your body. This allows you to move freely when sleeping while the lining wraps snugly around you. It also
increases the loft between the inner and outer layers reducing the amount of air around the body for greater warmth
Insulite® Superfine insulation is a blend of spiralised, siliconised fibres, which combine to produce a filling that is highly compressible, extremely durable and lightweight
3D Hood with multi-cord closure is tailored to fit the shape of the head. Strategic design means the head and shoulders are kept much warmer during the night. The hood's multi-cord adjustment uses two
thicknesses of cord so it can be easily adjusted in the dark
3D Insulated Zip Baffle minimises heat loss through the zip. The 3D shape allows the filling to loft and provide better insulation
Half Length Zip to reduce weight while still offering ventilation and easy access to the bag
Two-Way Auto-Lock Zip: This versatile two-way zip can be used to seal in warmth or provide ventilation and can be used from inside the bag. The auto-lock feature prevents the bag from opening when moving
around during the night
Reflective tab on zip cover aids finding and opening the bag at night
Zip Guard with Anti-catch Piping helps to prevent the zip from snagging on the lining, allowing easy opening and closing
Internal Pocket conveniently placed to provides storage for phones, MP3 players and other small essentials
Hanging Loops at the foot of the bag allow it to be hung up to air, keeping the bag fresh and dry between uses
Arrow Foot gives a shaped foot area allowing feet to relax into their natural position whilst sleeping without adding excess space in bag
Omega Shaping is engineered to position zips and seams in the bottom half of the bag. This gives better heat retention and a neat, comfortable fit around the shoulders
Temperature Ratings Independently Measured in Accordance with EN 13537:2002
The woven zip puller allows quick and easy operation of the zip

Not for me as I have a few of similar rating, but are they a generous bag?
Some of these LW bags get the weight down by being cut skinny and short. hence my question as some member may find such a bag useful to extend the range of a LW or UL down bag into winter

They are a mummy style bag.
I'm 180cm and weigh 95kg (or so, haven't checked recently ;-) )
They are long enough for me with a bit to spare.
My shoulders are wide around 120cm circumference. They are a close fit but still comfortable as a side sleeper.
Suggest good for someone 180cm or less and of lighter/slimmer build then me.

PS. They would be no good for PV winter base camping camping Moondog :lol:

Perfect then for somebody that has something like a S2S Spark or Micro and finds that roomy enough but not warm enough for snow camping

Can I ask if the filling is synthetic?
I am interested in both these if they are still available.
Thanks

Hi Fiona,

Yes they are still available and they are synthetic fill. I think it is called Insulite. I am responding to your PM.
