Really lightweight down sleeping bag

The smallest and lightest 2-season sleeping bag

By Kenny Stocker

Sian Lewis from T3 reviews the Alpkit PipeDream 200, revealing its unbeatable lightweight and packable design, ideal for warm weather excursions. Perfect for those prioritizing pack weight during summer adventures.

Venturing out for a summer camping journey? Sian Lewis of T3 magazine recommends Alpkit's PipeDream 200, a superior lightweight two-season sleeping bag tailor-made for warmer weather escapades.

The Alpkit PipeDream 200 is a cosy summer-only sleeping bag that comes in the smallest and lightest package possible – and for a decent price. For fast-paced adventures in reliably warm conditions, this comfortingly soft sleeping bag is a great choice.

For Sian a key feature is the airy down feather insulation that promises a phenomenal warmth-to-weight ratio. Despite its feathery weight, the PipeDream delivers effective warmth, rapidly trapping heat and providing a soft, comfortable experience throughout the night. Moreover, its packability is a standout; this little marvel compresses down to the size of a small loaf of bread, fitting into virtually any rucksack. Weighing even less than the advertised 545g, this bag checks in at a mere 485g.

In summary the article praises the PipeDream 200 sleeping bag as the go-to for those prioritizing minimized pack weight on their summer treks, ensuring comfort without the added bulk. However, taller adventurers might want to seek an extended version. If it's a quality, lightweight bag for summer you're after, the PipeDream 200 is your pick!
