I just got my hands on some 2.1oz APEX. Its a little late in the season for a website overhaul since in two months these wont cut it but id like to post them here for anyone interested. I suspect the temp rating to be 45-50*

Prodigy 45*

5'6" SLIM ~13oz $175
5'6" REG ~14.5oz $175
5'6" WIDE ~15.25oz $175

6' SLIM ~14oz $180
6' REG ~15.5oz $180
6' WIDE ~16.25oz $180

6'6" SLIM ~15oz $185
6'6" REG ~16.5oz $185
6'6" WIDE ~17.25oz $185

Weights estimated assuming 10D liner and 15D-WR shell

fabrics available:
Tan10D
Charcoal10D
Black 15D-HB(no WIDE)
Rose(pink)15D-HB(no WIDE)
Aspen Green 15D-WR

Currently we're building these 2 weeks out, of course that depends on order volume

With all these color options Tim, think we might be seeing some sort of overhaul of the fabrics page soon?

Did it today. I'm not putting the Rose 15D-HB up as I don't have a lot.

These may "cut" it for anyone using this as an overbag to supplement their quilt. A 6'6" WIDE would make a great overbag paired with a regular 3-season down quilt. Just a thought for anyone without a dedicated winter bag/quilt.

Oh no you're right no colors up. Once the green and charcoal come in I'll add pics to my Facebook.

Sorry Will, missed this.

Conservatively it should boost the rating by 10-15* I haven't used it that way since i hate the cold so experience will mean more than my estimation.
