I really liked that Overland Down 400 from Mac Pac but I was overruled in favour of this instead, which hopefully, arrives today:

https://www.torpedo7.co.nz/products/5MSLDN9ZKSY/title/sawtooth-down-sleeping-bag?gclsrc=aw.ds&&gclid=Cj0KCQjwit_8BRCoARIsAIx3Rj7wYU-3YS5mfNuLINpYNVZjzNWRjlbVPhPRjPhkySBDm0h2aIW2AiQaAsWkEALw_wcB&gclsrc=aw.ds

Got it for a crazy deal over labour weekend, under $300.

Reviewed well where ever I looked.

I have to say a good sleeping bag will live with you for a long time - they're worth extra money.

We still use the Kathmandu ones we bought to go on our OE 25-odd years ago. They've been all over the world and back again.

Having a two-zip system, we are able to unzip the feet section and allow airflow when its warmer, which really helps.

Don't even know if Kathmandu make good ones anymore.

Yeah, I mean, we didn't want to spent a grand on sleeping bags that get used 4 times a year at most, with no plans to significantly increase requirements over time, but we certainly didn't go low end either.

I really wanted something a bit lighter, but everything is balance.

The bag I ordered ended up -3 comfort. I can't think of many times I'd need that level of cool :)
