Valandre LaFayette Sleeping Bag

By renouncing all of the long-held beliefs about sleeping bag construction, Valandre was able to create the LaFayette Sleeping Bag using 85 individual pieces and parts that surround 850-fill goose down for an incredibly lightweight yet unbelievably comfortable place to sleep. Oui - this bag is so innovative, it was awarded Best Outdoor Product of 2001 by the French Outdoor Press.

Features:

• Trap an astonishing amount of heat around your core - the Marie Antoinette styled collar cinches right up next to your neck, eliminating all drafts - then around your waist when you sit up to make coffee
• Most of us sleep on our side, so the 1/3 length zipper is placed at the center-chest, eliminating that uncomfortable zipper imprint on your hip
• When your survival depends on staying warm, trust the Japanese-designed fabrics that are practically impossible to rip or tear under normal use
• To make the best use of every possible ounce, Valandre uses only French-sourced and bred goose down that will trap and hold tenaciously to heat
• Cut to wrap around your head without compressing the insulation, the mummy hood keeps your noggin truly warm instead of losing heat through compressed insulation
• Seal yourself into a cocoon of warmth with the semi-elastic collar drawcord and static hood drawcord, all with snaps that keep them together and in place, no matter how you move
• Rest your feet naturally in the trapezoidal foot box that creates a warm bubble around your perennially cold feet
• Twist and turn all night long - the reinforced knees keep down in place as you roll from side to side during the night
