Alpkit Sleeping Bags, any good etc ?

[Nagual]

Hi there everyone,

I was wondering about these skyehigh sleeping bags. Yes there are other, cheaper -10 bags out there, but for size and weight they are quite good. Has anyone had any experience with them or other Alpkit bags, and if so could yo share your thoughts and feelings?


Cheers, Nag.

I have an Alpkit bag and like it a lot. Do a search on here for Alpkit and you'll find a few posts with more info.

Alpkit bags are superb bags, quality and price wise, for a down bag you cant go wrong.

Cheers guys, thanks for your replies. I was asking about the skyehigh bags as hey are really new to the market and offer apparenty great weight / money / size value. I have looked at the various alpkit threads that have occured over the past wee while, but nothing conclusive, as far as I can see.


Cheers, Nag.

Fair enough. Mine's an alpine dream 500 I think - older model. You might be able to find a review thread on the Alpkit site for the Skye bags, but they haven't been out that long. They tend to be honest reviews from users - AFAIK Alpkit don't seem to edit out any of the negative comments.

All of the gear I've had from Alpkit has been superb, so I can only think the Skye bags will be an improvement on the one I have already.

Nagual, in case you would've bought or will buy the Skyehigh: a (small) review would be highly appreciated
