Sleeping Bag Materials
Sleeping bag fabrics
Polyamide / Ripstop
Fabric that is extremely fine and light, but at the same time also down-proof. Fabric is heat-treated to make it softer. Ripstop structure means that a reinforcement check is woven into the fabric with thicker yarn. The Denier number (D) expresses the fabric’s thickness, e.g. 30D or 15D
Meryl 35 / Ripstop
Superlite sleeping bag fabric. Meryl fabric is made of microscopically fine filaments exploiting the latest technology.
Ultralite R/S
DuPont Tactel Ultralite Ripstop Polyamide. Lightweight fabric woven from DuPont Tactel microfilaments, with structure strengthened by a strong Ripstop knit.

Fill power

90/10 Down
High quality down in ratio 90 / 10. 90% down and 10% small feathers, giving the filling more springiness and lightness.
