I'm debating between the two and am not sure which one to go with. I'd be using it in conjunction with a quilt for head protection/warmth. I can take the quilt to the mid 20s and that's about as low as I'd want to go. Given those parameters, which one would you go with – the 60 or the 90?
Feb 14, 2008 at 10:15 am #1420574I was thinking the same thing…
Just don't tell my wife.
Feb 14, 2008 at 10:45 am #1420576I asked mine and she gave the nod! Now which one…???
Feb 14, 2008 at 10:51 am #1420577They weigh almost the same, why not go with the warmer one?
I have the Pro 90 and it is great.Feb 14, 2008 at 10:54 am #1420578Is there such a thing as being too warm? That's what I'm afraid of if I get the 90. I probably won't be out below freezing in a long time.
Feb 14, 2008 at 11:05 am #1420580That's my same concern. It's basically spring already here in the southeast. Absent a cold week or freak snow shower that may happen in March, I don't expect another night into the low 20s (unless you're in higher elevations) until next fall/winter. That said, I went with the 60 and NOT the 90.
