At just over 2kg, the Glacier Expedition sleeping bag has been designed for Polar expeditions to the Arctic, with every feature implemented to improve warmth and efficiency.
There's a whopping 1352kg of down in the bag; 90-10 Pure Duck Down with a minimum fill of 700 to be precise, with each baffle optimised for the best balance of size and fill, making it as efficient as possible while reducing weight and adding warmth. The down has been used well with the five baffle hood and six baffle footbox both anatomically designed, helping to optimise as much warmth as possible.
Mountain Equipment has paid attention to detail all over, with mid-level side seams and trapezoid and slanted-box wall baffles all working together to trap heat and keep you warm. These baffles have, of course, been optimised to be as warm as possible without any extra weight. The outer DRILITE LOFT shell aids the weight-saving, at approximately 55g/m2, but carrying breathable properties to help the down to loft, with a water-resistant Hydrostatic Head of 1500mm to protect the insides.
The Glacier Expedition fit allows extra space for warmer clothing with Mountain Equipment's Expedition fit; also useful for storing boot inners if the temperature gets really cold! Access to all of this is from the Lode Lock magnetic closure that can easily be operated with one hand, complemented by the Gemini zip baffle to avoid any unwanted heat loss.
