DOWN TO BUSINESS A great down sleeping bag gets even better for 2014. Win!

Have you ever heard anyone say “Man I wish my sleeping bag wasn’t so good?”

We haven’t either.

Your sleeping bag will make a huge difference in your enjoyment sleeping outdoors.

The fine folks at Marmot have updated both the Sawtooth and Angelfire for 2014, making great bags even better.

Both feature 650 fill down, are comfy, roomy and very versatile with more features than you can imagine.

A big update for this season is the addition of Marmot’s Down Defender treatment - adding a extra measure of protection against moisture. Down Defender stays drier up to 10 times longer than untreated down. Warmth of down, convenient of synthetic.

Is this the end of the synthetic filled sleeping bag..........
