*** NOW SOLD THANKS ***











Having another clearout ...

UKHammocks Winter top quilt
100g overfill
Olive green

600g of lovely fluffy 900 fillpower Polish pure down

A seriously warm top quilt

Cost me £175










This is the quilt packed in the stuff sack provided by Mat, it's oversized but I prefer to pack my quilts like that, this and the matching UQ would be the first items in the bottom of my pack, side by side. Any quilt manufacturer will tell you not to over compress the down in packing, lightly stuffing them and then placing the rest of your kit on top is the best way. If you're a crammer and prefer to pack into the smallest lump possible, this will also go into a Sea-to-Summit eVent evac compression bag, size SMALL, Source 1L Liquitainer for comparison.

I was tempted, but it's too warm for what I need at the moment :)

How is the general quality of the quilt, say compared to some of the US cottage vendors?

It can be easily adjusted for warmer trips just by lowering it slightly, and then when it does get cold you can cinch it up snug, so in a way it's more versatile than and 2 or 3 season quilt.

Have I changed your mind yet, have I got a sale? :)

Matt's work is top quality and I'd recommend it to anyone looking for hammock gear in Europe.

Just to be clear, it's a top quilt right?
Afraid not mate, would love to take it off your hands for a winter setup, but with limited funds and time, I'm trying to be very selective in my gear purchases.

Is it cinched closed at the foot end or sewn as a foot box? The dimensions look narrow ... but ... could it be opened up as used as a UQ or a TQ (like a combi)?

It's a sewn footbox, I prefer my quilts like that. I think it looks narrow in the pics because there's so much down in it, it's Mats standard size of 1.9x1.25m

How does the width work out in real life? i.e. I have a 47" chest (60cm shoulder to shoulder), is 125cm width enough?

I'm more like 42" chest but there's plenty of room, with enough to stuff around my shoulders and tuck in down the sides.

Maybe open up one of your existing sleeping bags and measure it to compare?
