Has anyone tried the Backcountry Bonzai Chevron Blanket only 12.3 ounces

"This chevron-baffled blanket uses wind & water resistant nylon filled with 800+ fill power goose down."

I'm sure this crowd wants more information than that. DWR? etc…

Dri down?

No footbox or pad attachment. No loops for use as an under quilt.

"We have used the blanket in temperatures around the mid-40s and been comfortable."

Clothes on?

Cut dimensions are 54×80. So the finished product will be a bit smaller.

I'll let someone else be the guinea pig.

I don't see 32 degrees listed anywhere. They specify one inch of loft. Is it sewn thru? I think 50 degrees is a more accurate temp rating

I would just buy an Enlightened Equipment quilt for about the same price or less

Edit: I see the 32 degrees now. But I think that is only the warm weather filter range, not their suggested temp use

Hi- The Chevron Blanket is sewn through and 50 degrees seems like a reasonable temp rating.

One thing that differentiates the blanket is that it's fully rectangular, not tapered, which allows for more configurations in use, including wearing it somewhat shawl-style, sneaking a dog in at the feet, etc. I prefer the "naked blanket," as it were, but would be happy to add small tie-out loops if people wanted them for securing under a pad, etc. Considering the additional coverage area of the Chevron Blanket, weight & price specs are highly competitive.

There are many, many more products in the pipeline, including fully baffled down gear, shelters, packs, and apparel. I'm unable to do custom work right now, but am open to considering suggestions & requests. Our website is in development & should be up soon. Thanks!

We've had several requests for the product so released it as quickly as possible; full specs are coming, integrated into the website.

In the meantime, it's 800FP goose down. The "outer" is 1.0 oz HyperD, the "inner" is Membrane10.

edit: full disclosure, I'm the owner of Backcountry Bonsai.

Thank you Brad for the additional information. Look forward to seeing the website with the shelthers, insulated jackets, etc.

Thanks for checking it out, Scott!

I tried "Backcountrybonsai.com" but I take it that is not you? It appears to be a tree guy in Wyoming. Do you have a website yet?

If you read Brad's 1st post he writes…Our website is in development & should be up soon. Thanks!
