Carinthia Tropen sleeping bag Carinthia has been in Austria since 1948 and Australia since 2007. As far as we know, Carinthia is the only bag manufacturer who developes and manufactures their own synthetic memory insulation, G-Loft. G-loft is one of the best performing synthetic memory insulations available and is hydrophobic as well as machine-washable. A best seller from their range is the warmclimate sleeping bag, the Tropen. Filled with G-Loft insulation and a Shelltrans outer fabric, the Tropen easily transports moisture out of the bag keeping you warm and dry 62

down to +5C for comfort and an extreme limit of -12C. It’s light, at only 1100gm for the 185cm height bag and compresses to just 18 x 25cm. A two-way zipper allows you to open the bottom of the bag for ventilation and there is an integral insect bar than can be zippered over the face opening when required. This zipper is non-snagging allowing you to get out of the bag quickly and easily when you need to.
