Skyhigh 800 Sleeping Bag. I used this for the first time at the weekend, was in the minus range but this sleeping back was worth every penny, warm and comfortable in freezing conditions. Excellent.

Hi All, just to say thanks for the fantastic night’s sleep I had in my new Skye1000 bag. The previous week I had to put two sleeping bags inside each other and slept in my thermals to stay warm. This week i could of gone naked!Much more comfotable and I love the fact that its short
and fits me wonderfully.I will be getting another one for the warmer weather soon.

Have bought a skyhigh 600 sleeping bag from you, also a base mat. Really pleased with both—great value and quality. Onlt tried out on friends floor so far but heading for NZ later in the year, and they will be perfect!

I got my SkyeHigh 600 for my birthday in June and had to wait until the weather got colder before I could use it - it was just way too warm for summer use.

I have now used it on 4 separate outings (not including tests in the garden) and think that it’s brilliant. The overnight temperature on these trips varied from +8C to -5C and I have never been cold in it.

I have only ever used it out in the open in a Hunka bivi bag on either an old regular Airic or a new Airo 120. I just haven’t had an opportunity to use it in a tent, yet!

Blimey! You guys are really on the ball. I ordered my Skyehigh 800 bag late Wednesday evening on line and to-day Friday at midday it arrived. Complete with a cheery handwritten Happy Christmas on the returns slip.
Well if the bag performs as well as it looks you will have to fight me for it back!
Looks and feels an incredible value for money product. Well made and just inviting you into it for a good comfy kip.
Until to-day a good down bag was beyond my means but you have made my Christmas and I cannot wait to try it out.
Thank you Alpkit! You will get very high recommendations from me. Great product and super fast service.

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.
