Back to Nunatak Sleeping Bags

This concept provides the frequently requested link between our quilts and a regular mummy type bag.

The Catabatic is a regular hood less sleeping bag, with the underside insulation replaced by a single ultralight layer of fabric. This accomplishes a number of things. First bulk and weight is greatly reduced, always a quest in our designs.

Furthermore, the need for a zipper as a mean of ventilation is eliminated: To cool off, one simply rotates the bag to expose portions of the permeable bottom fabric. In extreme cases inverting the Catabatic a full 180° will do the trick. Without the zipper we again shave off several ounces, and reduce the risk of mechanical failures.

Unlike our quilts, this bag is bug proof, a concern for some of our customers who favor tarps over tents.

The Catabatic is also available with standard mummy style hood and more down, making the Catabatic SL
