NANGA「LEVEL8 -23 AURORA LIGHT」¥94600

Nanga’s highest peak sleeping bag the “Level 8” is a waterproof and lightweight model that can withstand extremely cold temperatures of -23 ° C. The lightweight, waterproof and breathable material Aurora Light is used. It utilizes 770FP Spanish duck down with super water repellent finish, for a comfortable temperature at -13 ℃, and the coldest usable temperature is -23 ℃.

In addition, the result of their research has been utilized in the structure of the sleeping bag body, such as the position of the fastener and the manufacturing method of the quilting. In the normal model, the zipper on the side is placed near the chest to reduce the intrusion of cold air from the ground. A double draft tube is provided on the back of the fastener to improve heat retention.

Furthermore, by setting the back to a vertical baffle, the shifting of down due to turning over is reduced. By making the foot box larger than the normal model and enclosing more down, it reduces the coldness felt in the feet.

It will be available in 2 colors, Coyote and Red.
