Costco (Bristol Branch) have 160 x 177cm 430g down camping quilt for around £15, plus lightweight down gilets and jackets, at £15 and £20 respectively. The duvets have been discussed on hammocking forums, and are made by Double Black Diamond. Available in navy, grey and burgendy colours, they are almost as warm as a snugpak jungle blanket/bag and would work very nicely to boost a sleeping bag.

They are filled with, according to the label, 700fp grey duck down, I have no idea on the ethical sourcing of the down.

Yes you need a membership for Costco (£25/y I think) or go with an existing member, I picked up a few of the down quilts and they're pretty good for the money I'd certainly recommend them. Pack down small and loft up pretty well my idea was to take my 3 season hammock bag/ quilt up to 4 season and the Costco quilt on its own will be perfect for the warmer months on its own.

Hi just read this thread and I wondered if anyone has tried out the quilt mentioned in a hammock. If so was it any good as an under blanket or best used as additional over blanket? I am seeing some pretty mixed reviews.
