As the title whats the lightest weight synthetic sleeping bag out there.
Wanted for very light weight bivvys and touring in summer conditions so, 1 season only. Not interested in down as its likely to get wet. Any price manufacturer considered. Would like below 600g if possible
Thanks
Probably something like a Golite RS 1+ season quilt thing. Bit like a Rab Top Bag but synthetic and just over 600g.
This would be worth a look:

Or a vango ultralite 100 which is a bit heavier but half the price:

It's not weight that's the issue with synthetic bags, it's pack size (bulk). Check the packed size. My 2 season down bag fits in a pint glass.
where did you put the beer ?
I dehydrate it, then snort it, mixed with dried snail trail goo.
There's a joke there somewhere about packing light, snails and l'escargot, but I'll leave it.

Well, if he's got lots of hills and the room for a larger pack, mebbe it's not the issue 😉 - he *did* say it's likely to get wet (whcih was exactly the reason I was looking at 'em recently - eventually stuck with my old - large - synthetic bag, but I wasn't trying to lob it onto a bike..)
yep bulk not that critical compared to weight, the haglofs looks nice but pricey.
For those looking for one, decathlon has come up trumps again with this cheap light and small ish pack size
