Product Description
Glacier 500 Womens is the lightest bag in Mountain Equipment’s Glacier range. Built using superior materials and quality construction, this high performance range of bags is aimed at mountaineering in variable conditions across Europe’s mountains. With its low weight, high compressibility and warmth, the Glacier 500 Womens is ideal for lightweight mountaineering or summer backpacking in more northerly climates.
The women’s version of the Glacier 500 benefits from a shorter body length to minimise excess air space inside the bag which needs to be heated up and a higher percentage of down in the foot box.
The Glacier 500 Womens’ thermal insulating properties are achieved using ethically sourced 90% Pure down which is expertly blended to ensure superior quality is retained and with a minimum fill power of 675 cubic inches for high loft. To ensure the fill reaches its full insulating potential trapezoid baffles, a modification on V baffles using less fabric, are used to maintain the down fill in areas it is needed the most whilst maximising loft and minimising down migration resulting in elimination of cold spots.
Durability is a priority with the Glacier 500 Womens and thanks to the Drilite Loft outer shell which provides resistance to snow and moisture, the sleeping bag is able to perform in a variety of weather conditions. Add to this the anatomical hood with Halo baffle, the 3-Dimensional neck collar and sharks toe foot piece amongst other technologically advanced features, and the Glacier 500 Womens proves to be a very high performance bag.
