Have people missed that this is the 'ultralite' community? Perhaps I'm missing something but why the suggestions weighing over two kilograms (4 lbs 6oz for those clinging to British Imperial measure :-)

on2itI've said the same about a 4lb sleeping bag in the past. Seems its really just an "outdoors" section with a focal point on ultralight, but seems that's not as much of a concern recently, especially with products that I'd only imagine bringing car camping.

tsturzl@tsturzl - are you referring to the Klymit 0 degree 'luxury' sleeping bag? Yeah, that was a mistake and it shouldn't have happened. We strive for ultralight - for the hardcore members like you - and for the lightweight products that bring people in, to get them introduced to the whole ultralight philosophy. A lot of people can benefit with lightening up and they have to start somewhere! Thanks for your input.

DannyMilksThat's exactly the bag I'm talking about. I mentioned something on the discussion for that bag, saying it would be a good car camping bag. I just got my Massdrops 20F UL quilt though(surprisingly earlier than I expected), and I'm thoroughly impressed. I'd like to see you guys bring that back again, and I'm always welcome to EE bags. It would be really nice to see water-proof/resistant down in the Massdrops quilt. I'll be testing it this weekend and leaving some feedback. But from what I can tell so far is that its rock solid and very warm. I'll be putting it through the ringer on an overnight snowshoeing trip camping near the treeline.

DannyMilksOn that note, I'd really like to see a massdrops brand UL shelter or bivvy.
