Vango Viper 1000 Down Sleeping Bag '11
Description

This range of premium down filled sleeping bags, are designed to maximise quality, comfort and durability on the mountain. The insulation, construction and shaping of the bag are all created to ensure minimum heat loss therefore keeping you as warm as possible in extreme temperatures. The inclusion of Vango's Thermal Embrace System (TES) enchances the efficency of this bag by encouraging the lining towards you, increasing loft potential and helping to eliminate air around your body.

Features

* Left
* Advanced trapezoidal construction - Compared to box wall construction, heat is lost at a lower rate when using trapezoidal baffles. This is due to the ability to overlap which reduces cold spots. Sewing the baffles into chevron shapes (when looked at from above) prevents the down filling from shifting to the sides of the bag.
* Polair® RSN shell with water resistant finish - Our 40 denier ripstop nylon shell is soft, warm and breathable. Nylon is durable and resists abrasion for a long lasting sleeping bag. The high 318T thread count ensures the bag is down proof, keeping the fill in place. Condensation and water sits on top of the shell, keeping the insulation dry and giving the user a better night's sleep.
* Polair® RSN lining - Our 40 denier ripstop nylon lining is soft, warm and breathable. Nylon is durable and resists abrasion for a long lasting sleeping bag. The high 318T thread count ensures the bag is down proof, keeping the fill in place.
* Thermal Embrace System - The Vango TES system utilises elasticated thread in the lining to enable the sleeping bag to hug your body. This allows you to move freely when sleeping while fitting the inner lining snugly around you. As the lining is encouraged towards you, it increases the loft between the inner and outer layers and reduces the amount of air around the body, resulting in greater insulation and more warmth.
* 90/10 Duck Down - Down is the highest performing insulation highest loft versus weight. The fill ratio of our duck down is 90% down, 10% support feathers, ensuring a warm, long life. A fill power of 580 gives a high loft.
* Four panel profiled hood - Our four panel profi led hood is tucked in above the shoulders and higher around the face to create a warm, snug fit.
* Multi-cord hood closure with insulated face baffle - The different thicknesses of tactile cord in the hood's multi-cord adjustment can be easily adjusted in the dark. The padded enclosure gives a soft and comfortable fit.
* 3D insulated zip baffle - The zip baffle stops heat escaping through the zip. The baffle's top mounted position ensures that gravity pulls it down against the zip. The 3D shape allows the baffle to loft, giving better insulation.
* Insulated adjustable shoulder baffle - Stops heat escaping from inside the bag when rolling over. The adjustable cord increases comfort and heat retention.
* Arrow foot - Shaped foot area allows feet to relax whilst sleeping, without excess space and air in bag.
* Omega Shaping - Engineered to have the zips and seams in the bottom half of the bag. These bags will have better heat retention, with a neat, comfortable fit around the shoulders and allow differential fills to be used, giving greater warmth where needed most.
* Low profile two-way auto-lock zip - Seal in warmth or facilitate ventilation. The auto-lock zip prevents the bag opening when rolling over during the night. The low profile construction helps prevent the zip snagging on lining fabric.
* Zip guard with anti-catch piping - Helps prevent zip snagging on lining, allowing easy opening and closing.
* Internal pocket - Easy to use, secure storage for phones or MP3 players.
* Temperature ratings independently measured in accordance with EN 13537:2002 - In order to provide a realistic indication of the temperature range at which a camper will feel comfortable whilst using one of our sleeping bags, we have tested the insulative properties of all of our Viper sleeping bags in accordance with EN 13537:2002.
* Two-part compression sac - Compresses bag for easier packing, or just use the stuffsac to reduce weight.
