Product Description

Updated for 2010! The Kelty Light Year XP 20 Degree sleeping bag combines performance and affordability. A mummy cut and lightweight, compressible synthetic fill make the Light Year XP 20 Degree bag ideal for 3-season backpacking. In an effort to standardize temperature ratings and properly inform consumers, European Norm (EN) testing uses a thermal mannequin to determine the performance of a sleeping bag in a range of temperatures. The Comfort rating is meant to reflect the temperature at which an average adult woman (132 lbs) can enjoy a comfortable night of sleep and a Lower Limit rating is meant to show the temperature at which an average adult male (176 lbs) can enjoy a comfortable night's sleep. A third rating, Extreme, is meant only to show the survival rating for a âstandardâ woman and is not advisable for use in making buying decisions for general use. NOTE: The testing assumes that the user of the sleeping bag will be using a sleeping pad of 1â thickness and wearing long underwear, a hat and socks. Kelty bases its assigned temperature ratings based on the EN Lower Limit and the assumption that you will be utilizing both a sleeping pad and a tent. The Light Year XP 20 Degree sleeping bag is insulated with Climashield XP synthetic insulation. Climashield XP is a lightweight, compressible synthetic fill that maintains its high loft, softness and insulating properties over time. Unlike down fill, Climashield XP retains most of its insulating capabilities even when wet, making the Light Year XP 20 Degree bag a good choice for wet climates. Two-layer offset quilt construction with chevron stitching eliminates cold spots, keeping outside air from reaching the inside of the Light Year XP 20 Degree. A contoured hood with an insulated baffle, an insulated top baffle collar and a draft tube behind the hip-length zipper combine to further insulate against the cold. In balmier weather, an integrated, zippered foot vent allows for added ventilation. A polyester
