MontBell U.L. Super Stretch Hugger #1 Sleeping Bag: 15 Degree Down

February 2, 2010

For winter/fall camping would you go with the #1 or #0. Temps are usually 10-25F when I camp. I camp always with a tent and use a bag cover/bivy as well. #1 seems kind of lightweight for 10F.

Has this jacket changed since the last years model? Specifically, the fit of the jacket? I have seen that the previous version was short and boxy.

What are the pros and cons for this jacket having no collar? I assume it is designed to fit a hooded layer better?

Jacket seems to be similar to the Westcomb Cruiser. I assume they are made in the same building. Both made in Canada, same materials (300 fabric lower and 560 upper body). Cayenne color is the same as the Westcomb redrock color (despite the jacket colors in Backcountry's photos). The only difference I see is the Westcomb's version has the 560 fabric come down farther on the arms. Also the Westcomb has pit zips and pocket placements.

How has the jacket held up skiing trees or riding lifts during the winter? Seems like the main material is rather thin, similar to a gore tex pac lite material.

This is a very warm bag. I have slept in 20 degrees F without any problems. The bag is very lofty and comfortable.I noticed it has been losing some feathers, but nothing too abnormal. I am 6'3" and a long is perfect. This is a good all around bag.

Rating for this product: 4 July 17, 2009

I bought these new for last season. Shredded all year on them for both resort skiing and touring. Getting into them can be tricky, but you will get the hang of it. Very lightweight and easy to use. The toe friction plate is slightly worn so I might send them back or get a replacement piece from Black Diamond. Oh yeah, this model is way better than the older white model. Bueno!

The glasses fit well and block light all around my eyes. Perfect shades for touring or fishing. The rubber ends really help to keep them on my face. At first they were kind of uncomfortable on my nose, but they seem to be better now.

Quickdraws are light, easy to use and serve their purpose well! Good work BD. Rubber insert does help to keep them straight for long reaches.

Below the chest looks like 300 event fabric. Above the chest looks like 560 event. Can anyone else verify this?

Waterproof but not too durable

Westcomb Cruiser Jacket - Men's

Westcomb Cruiser Jacket - Men's

Rating for this product: 3 April 24, 2009

It does breathe well. It is a good shell for winter touring or spring corn skiing. I like the overall fit and the pit zips. The Redrock color does not resemble the image above. The jacket is red in person, not orange as seen in the picture. Very waterproof. The jacket is made of two types of eVent fabric. 300 and 500. The 300 fabric is thinner and I have noticed very small tears in jacket.

Great Jacket

The North Face Cipher Windstopper Jacket - Men's

Rating for this product: 5 March 26, 2009

So far this jacket is great for spring skiing. It blocks the wind well considering how lightweight the coat is. On a 35 degree day here in Utah I wear a medium weight fleece underneath and stay warm. Seems to repel water and breathes quite well.

Sessions Shane Softshell Jacket - Men's

Rating for this product: 5 November 13, 2008

Fits real well. Not too baggy and not too tight. I wear XL in everything and this XL fits perfectly unlike other sessions coats that run real big. Fabric is thicker than some gore tex jackets. I have yet to test it out riding. I wore it in the rain and stayed dry.
