    Default lamilite Climashield

    Hello

    I go on many forums and try to find what Climashield Wiggys use ?
    Since there are plenty, it is a bit confusing,

    Is this COMBAT / XP / HL / the newest APEX / NEO / GREEN (some claim GREEN can be weaker since inception of non virgin fiber ....)

    Dann, Welcome to WhiteBlaze!
    Wiggys uses something proprietary so it'll be hard to know exactly what it is. It is made by a company that makes other stuff. I've read that it is basically Climashield, with people guessing Combat because it's made in the USA and he sells to the military. From my reading, his sleeping bags are decent but on the heavy side.

    well,

    my purpose is to draw a guide line, a chart showing all the differences linked in terms of thicknesses (denier) linked the core (hollow void or solid), and the intra diameter (microns)
    For instance Thinsulate has 1.4 denier (weight) (weighs 1.4 gram for 9000 meter) while being 15 microns thick but is flat to begin with.
    The Lamilite is 5.5 denier but can't get the diameter and is warmer than PG 3D, 3.3 denier , Climashield Neo 2 denier (http://www2.thenorthface.com/na/tech...gies-EQ65.html) and PG Delta about 2 denier.
    It seems that the lighter, the finer, the weaker.....
    therefore my initial question...

    I have Wiggy's 2-bag system (FRTSS). The bags are amazing, by far the best I've ever come across. The great thing about these bags is that with the 2, your set for any weather, and they're durable enough to last for the rest of your life. The temp ratings are right on the money too. The Lamilite is definetly impressive stuff.

    Wiggy's does not use climashield. Lamilite is derived from a textile called comfort fil 7.
