Chrysalis 20 - Men's (Fall 2023)
$269.50
Description

  

A part of the Trail Crush Collection, this bag is designed for ultralight

  backpacking. With 900 fill down and a zipper system that extends the bag’s

  range, the Chrysalis 20 will help keep you warm while being superlight in your

  pack.

The Chrysalis 20 is a 900-fill down sleeping bag, purpose built for ultralight backpacking. We made every consideration to minimize weight while maintaining comfort, to the point that we removed unnecessary insulation from the back of the bag, where the sleeping pad would typically be. It'll keep you cozy at night but won't weigh you down during the day.

  

RESPONSIBLE DOWN STANDARD

  Certified to the Responsible Down Standard (RDS) by Control Union. The RDS ensures that our down does not come from animals that have been subject to any unnecessary harm, such as force-feeding or live-plucking, and helps track the down used in our products from farm to finished garment. The fill power of goose down indicates two important features: the warmth-to-weight ratio and compressibility. Our products are insulated with exclusive, high-fill-power down ranging from 550 fill to 950 fill, representing the highest-quality down commercially available.

Footprint sold separately.

  Dear Sundog: We recently went to a wedding in a mountain resort town. We rented a condo online because the wedding hotel was fully booked.

When It’s Time to Replace Your Running Shoes
  When this assignment hit my inbox, my first thought was: I am 100 percent going to find out that I need to buy new running shoes.

Last-Minute Gifts from a Bad Uncle
  It’s less than a week until Christmas. If you’re anything like me—a childlike adult living kid-free—that means you might have just enough time to get a gift to your nieces, nephews, and friends’ offspring sometime before January.
