A cosy down blanket that adds extra warmth to a sleep system or be used as a skirt or shawl around the campsite.
Montbell says
Fitted with snaps and lightweight adjustable cords, this down filled blanket easily converts to a shawl or skirt. Most use this product in a drafty office setting or while dealing with chilly travel environments. NOT DESIGNED TO BE USED AS A PART OF A SLEEP SYSTEM.
Our Verdict
Down Blanket M is focused on providing versatility. It initially looks like a simple down blanket, but it can be used as a quilt, thermal blanket or in conjunction with your sleeping bag. Weighing 116g with 60g of 650 Fill Power EX Down, you get a lightweight and warm blanket. It can be packed down to an impressive size.
Whether you are using it as an insulating blanket under a quilt or using it to boost the temperature of your quilt or sleeping bag, it certainly adds a decent amount of warmth which at this low weight is great.

At Montbell, we source down from both the European and Asian markets to satisfy a variety of characteristics (supply/availability, low cost, consistent quality, humane practices, etc.) and maintain our lofty standards. Every season we seek to balance the superior quality for which we are known and the lowest possible raw materials cost. We change down sourcing companies frequently to insure that our customers have access to superior products at the lowest price possible. In the course of these efforts, Montbell never purchases down from operations that practice “live-plucking” methods. We only utilize down plumes and feathers collected as a by-product of water fowl raised to meet the demands of the food industry.
We will continue to look for sources of down that maximize value to our customers and allow Montbell products to perform at the highest level.
