The Western Mountaineering HighLite sleeping bag is the definition of class and comfort that come at a steeper price. At the mere 1 pound, this sleeping bag is one of the most lightweight bags on the market. This California-based brand has been producing high-end sleeping bags for years now and didn’t disappoint with this model either.
The 850-fill down insulation is there, and so is the water-resistant coating designed to protect you from the unforeseen weather fluctuations. The sleeping bag takes pride in its ultra-breathable ExtremeLite shell that has a high thread count and a good rate of warmth.
There is no way the warm air will escape the sleeping bag – the horizontal seams are well-sewn into the fabric, while the waist and shoulder girth remove the pockets of dead air for your comfort.
Things we like:
-
One of the lightest sleeping bags on the market hands down -
The HighLite construction makes it an excellent option for late spring and summer hikes
-
The fill has a high thread count, which means that you will be warm at all times
Things we don't like:
-
The price tag is high
- Material: ExtremeLite, DWR coating
- Fill: 850+ fill down
- Tested Lower Temperature Limit: 35 degrees Fahrenheit
- Stuff Sack Size: 6 x 12 inches (Regular)
- Weight: 1 lb (Regular)
