Amazing Value, great bag...

Great Value for a 750 fill bag, warm, great service from Alpkit, does everything a down bag should do.
Not the most modern cut, but it hey it seems to work just as well as the competition so no real cons.
Does everthing it should do, I have the newer PD '09 Model, I am 6 feet and it fits me well, very warm even in the middle of winter, nothing to complain about. Spent several months choosing a bag, look at lots, North Face, ME etc etc, but kept coming back to Alpkit as the value was so good, I would recommend these guys to anyone who wants good quality and is looking for value for money. I have been able to get a summer and winter bag from Alpkit for a little more than the price of a winter bag form one of the better know brands.

£250 SPEC BAG FOR £120

Loft very impressive. Overall feel is good quality. Customer care is the best ive experianced
very difficult to get the lofty thing into the lightweight bag - but alpkit give you another anyway (what more could you want)
Top quality bag. £250 spec and quality but retails at £120 due to cutting overheads from shops ect. very happy with mine.

I WISH I WAS IN MINE NOW!

Number one has to be cost!
Feels and performs like a bag that should cost twice as much. very light and warm, packs small also.
None I can think of.
Ive heard some people complain about the hood but I find that it works fine(Ive got the latest 2007/2008 model though)
Can be a little tight if your overweight but its the close fit that makes it so thermally efficient.
Outstanding performance! You simply cant get this level of quality and performance elsewhere for this kind of money!

BRILLIANT BAG AT THE PRICE

A seriously good down bag for the cost of a synthetic one. Packs down small. Great warmth to weight ratio.
Notvery roomy. Stitching a little weak in places. Hood could be better.
A very good 3+ season bag ideal for backpacking. Another great Alpkit product.
