Rab 2022 Down Sleeping bag range explained
Posted by Mark Richardson on May 10, 2022
Mythic Ultra
Mythic Ultra - For Mountaineering and Fast & Light
The Mythic Ultra series are the most technical bags Rab make and have the highest warmth to weight ratio in the whole range. They achieve this performance by using 900 Fill Power down, the lightest downproof fabrics, a highly tapered Mummy shape that uses less fabric and a weight saving baffle construction.
The Mythic Ultra bags also use TILT technology which is a reflective yet breathable layer that reflects heat back into the bag boosting overall performance.
