Looking for a 20 degree bag. A FF 20 with the nano shell or a WM. Which WM shell material would be a similar comparison to the nano, the extreme lite or the microfiber series? Just want to compare apples to apples. Thanks

From what I've read on their websites, It seems like the FF nanoshpere fabric will have water repellency like the WM microfiber faric, but at a slightly lighter weight,while the extremelite fabric is lighter than the nano or the MF but less water repellent. Whether the added water repellency matters is up to you.

I found the WM microfiber to be much more breathable than the FF Nano. I had a FF bag in the Nano fabric and felt clammy in it. It was also more difficult to stuff in it's stuff sack than the WM microfiber (unless turned inside out).
