well just got this bag and i am impressed!looks good and feels good.the loft of the down is fantastic,much better than my last down bag which was the same spec.isnt leaking down either when i move it unlike my last bag.the bag looks well made which was my concern because it was so cheap.can wait for some cold weather now.i know its early days but i am very happy with what i have got for £110.00.

Bought the 800 and used it in the Lakes at the weekend, temperature on the first night was down to -5, can’t fault the bag, warm, no leakage and lofts well.
A real bargain !!

I bought the Skyehigh 800 yesterday, and it was delivered by 9.30 the following morning - great service!

Quality feels and looks great - am testing it out in Roybridge this weekend!

The SH1000 (short) weighs 1614g or 1758g with the compression bag.

Fantastic bag for the money, I have the 1000, incredibly warm, and the best fitting sleeping bag I have ever owned. Being 6’4” sleeping bags are normally a poor fit.

Features at a glance

  • Storage - Each SkyeHigh bag comes with 2 stuff bags; a 4-way compression bag and a cotton storage bag.
  • Quality Components - All of component parts of the SkyeHigh sleeping bags are of the highest quality, YKK zips, Duraflex buckles and accessories.
  • 650 Fill Power Down - We use 90/10 650+ (European scale) fill power Chinese white goose down, a good compromise between cost and performance.
  • Length Options - Sleeping bags keep you warmer if they fit well, for this reason we offer 3 sizes. It also means that you only have to carry what you need! Long and Short versions are 20 cm longer or shorter than the regular bags.
  • Sculptured Foot Box - The bag reduces down around the legs and the foot area has been shaped to give a sculptured area for your feet.
  • Contoured Zip Config - The zipper runs close to the ground and curves up around the shoulder giving shape to the hood and reduces compression of the down.
