Product details

Description

The most lightweight bag in the Defence family, the Defence 1 is intended for summer and early autumn/spring. Very lightweight and packs into a super tight bundle!

Lower Limit 4 °C / 39 °F
Weight 1050 g / 2.3 lbs (Medium)
Military-grade materials

The Defence sleeping bag series is designed for military use, the materials and overall properties are all made with that in mind.

These come with a handy compression bag that enables you to compress the sleeping bag in two directions.

Bag model and features

The mummy shape: Here the criteria of stuff size, weight and warmth are most important. The tapered foot section reduces weight and stuff size. The main advantage is, however, that from the knee downwards there is a decreasing amount of extra volume to warm up. The foot section should not be so small that the feet cause the layers of insulation to poke out. A trapezoidal foot section has proven to be ideal. A wedge shape, declining evenly in width from top to bottom, does not fit the true proportions of the body.

Two-way zipper: All Carinthia military sleeping bags are equipped with a two-way zipper. The glider on the top does not lock, allowing a quick step out if necessary (in case of alert for example). The bottom glider does lock and can be opened for ventilation.

Trapezoidal foot section: Experience has shown that the trapezoidal cut provides the ultimate foot space. In a normal sleeping position, the feet do not poke the insulation outward, avoiding cold spots. There is also enough room to store a shoe bag or extra clothing.

The outer shell fits loosely over the bag innards, providing an extra insulating layer of air. This also eliminates heat loss due to seams combining the shell with the fillings. Overall this feature enhances the bag's performance considerably!

Technical details and instructions

Materials

Shellproof outer shell - a lightweight, hard-wearing, ripstop reinforced and specially treated polyamide which is both wind and waterproof (1000 mm), yet breathable.
Shelltrans lining - a soft to the skin ripstop reinforced polyamide with excellent moisture-wicking capabilities keeps you comfortable through the night.
Thermoflect, a very thin, very lightweight aluminium material that reflects body heat. Thermoflect raises the sleeping bags heat-retaining capacity by about 11 %.
G-Loft filling - Carinthia's own, in-house "hollow-fibre", made in Austria. Highly compressible, excellent weight-insulation ratio and also moisture resistant, meaning that it will work even under long-term use in damp conditions.
Defence 1 uses single layered, lightweight G-Loft filling. In this lightweight design, the outer shell is loosely attached to the bag. The G-LOFT Plus filling is quilted to an insulating scrim. As a result, an additional air pocket is formed between the quilted insulation layer and the shell, yet no cold seams can occur.

Carinthia sleeping bags are not entirely PFC-free, but do have the Oeko-Tex certificate, Standard 100.

Temperature specification

Tested according to ISO 23537 / EN 13537, where "Comfort" represents a standard female sleeping comfortably in a relaxed position, and "Lower Limit" is where a standard male can sleep for eight hours without waking in a curled position. "Extreme" is not relevant to the common user: it's the temperature where a standard female can survive for six hours without dying of hypothermia.

Comfort: N/A
Lower Limit: 4 °C / 39 °F
Extreme: -10 °C / 14 °F

The values are comparable between manufacturers who conform to the standard. Note that some manufacturers label the Comfort as "Female Comfort," and the Lower Limit value may be presented as "Comfort Limit."

If you're a "warm sleeper," look at the Lower Limit figure when choosing a suitable sleeping bag. If you get cold easily, look at the Comfort rating instead. Quite simple.
