Liking the 35* womens version! At 1 lb 4 ounces that isn't bad. I sleep in a Ladies Sub Kilo 15* and in summer all I use it for is a throw. I might look into the Flash come summer…..
(And at least the bag looks like it might actually be warm, compared to the REI Travel Down ;-)
Looks like the REI Sub Kilo with less down. Probably a decent bag for the cost.
I own a REI Sub Kilo from a few years ago. I like this bag but it is a bit heavy at 31 oz. The 20' temp rating is an overestimation in my opinion, maybe a 30' bag. The bag's design is good except the down isn't shiftable between bottom and top. On their 2006 design the down is even less shiftable. I think they sacrificed some functional simplicity for more complicated design and styling. Their 2007 design looks a bit different though.
