From Oregon Mountain Community:
"If your summer bike tour is going to take you through different climates then the Western Mountaineering UltraLite is a good choice. With a 59" shoulder girth this efficient bag is good to 20°. The full down collar helps to seal in heat around your neck without adding excess bulk, and 16 oz. of high lofting down pumps this bag to 5". The total weight of this very compressible package is only 1 lb. 13 oz.

From Backcountry.com:
"The Western Mountaineering UltraLite Super Sleeping Bag won Climbing Magazine's Editors' Choice award because if its light weight, bomber design, and efficient heat management. Great for ultralight trips in the spring, summer, or early fall, this highly compressible down bag gives you warmth down to 20F while weighing only 1lb 10oz. Western Mountaineering maximized the 850+ fill down's effectiveness without adding bulk by incorporating a down-stuffed neck collar that all but eliminates heat loss out of the head opening. You won't be frustrated by a poor night's sleep in the UltraLite Super Sleeping Bag its silky smooth taffeta lining feels great against your skin, the full-length zipper resists snagging, and the ripstop outer shell offers durable and reliable protection against the elements."

Men's UltraLite Super

"I got the 6' version. There is one size shorter and one size taller. I got this sleeping bag so I can put together an ultra light backpack gear. I am 5'9" and average.

The construction and material is as good as the name brand bags. However, this is a body tourniquet."
