Ultra-light and technical, our Spark™ Series bags are designed to keep you as warm as possible while minimising packed weight and size.
The Spark™ Series spans everything from an ultralight liner to an expedition weight mid-winter bag. While the end usage is very different, they reflect a design ethos of matching weather conditions to the lightest bag possible.
The secret to the impressive performance is a combination of premium materials and careful design. The RDS 850+ Loft premium goose down, light-gauge #3 YKK zip and high performance 10D Nylon shell and 7D lining fabrics, set the stage for superior performance. These materials are combined with a contoured mummy design for efficient insulation, and that mummy design is then tweaked for each model to best fit the use scenario.
Our ULTRA-DRY Down™ water-repellent treatment protects the down from external moisture and condensation from the inside of the bag, virtually eliminating the negative effects moisture has on down. All Sea to Summit Down Sleeping Bags use Responsible Down Standard (RDS) certified down. The ULTRADRY Down™ protection also makes the Spark™ an impressive hard-alpine or adventure racing bag, where every gram is counted and down has never been a viable option.
- Vertical box baffles in the torso area accommodates extra down and boosts warmth around the core, vertical baffles on chest optimises positions of down to prevent it moving during use
- Lower part of the bag uses a sewn through horizontal baffle construction to minimise weight
- ½ zip with two sliders aids access and allows ventilation from mid-section of bag
- Updated sizing provides extra room for both shoulders and hips while still maintaining insulation efficiency
- Draft tube prevents heat loss through the zipper
- Includes hood draft collar
- NOTE: This bag is not designed to pair with another
Technology
Loft is the volume for a given weight of down. It is used to describe the quality of down, relating directly to the insulating performance. High loft down is warmer for a given weight than low loft down. Higher lofting down will fill a larger volume of space for a given weight. As a result, less down weight is required to fill each baffle in a sleeping bag. This translates to a lighter sleeping bag. The most common measure of loft is called Fill Power. 850 Fill Power implies that one ounce of this down will loft to fill a volume of 850in3. 850+ Loft Goose Down 850+ Fill Power (Loft) Premium Goose Down is the very best quality down available for sleeping bags. It provides the highest insulation for its weight and will last the longest.
Sea to Summit is excited to announce that in 2016 all of our Sleeping Bags will use down that has been sourced and certified by the Responsible Down Standard (RDS). The RDS is a tool that is going to help shift the entire down and feather industry towards more humane animal rearing and handling practices. Overseen by the internationally lauded Textile exchange, the RDS requires independent, third party assessments of all aspects of animal rearing and handling throughout the entire supply chain process. By only using down that meets the audited requirements of the RDS we can have confidence that each phase of the collection process has been completed with the welfare and ethical treatment of waterfowl in mind. This means no live plucking and no force feeding, humane living conditions and proper animal handling, from the moment of hatching throughout the life cycle of the waterfowl, and through the entire down supply chain. In addition, The RDS will be central in helping to increase awareness...
All Sea to Summit sleeping bags are sold with an International Down Feather Laboratory (IDFL) certificate that identifies the exact Fill Power of the down used. We guarantee our sleeping bags are filled with premium down that exceeds the stated Fill Power in accordance to the International Down Feather Bureau (IDFB) standard. - Repels moisture – Retains loft – Dries faster – Anti-bacterial and anti-microbial – Prolongs the life of your sleeping bag In a world of technical brilliance, it is remarkable that the performance of certain natural products have not been surpassed. Despite advances in modern fibre technology, down is still the best insulator warmth for weight, and is also the most durable sleeping bag insulation. The problem with down is its vulnerability to water; moisture decreases the ability of the down to loft to its full potential and insulate,...
