Lightweight camp insulation with plenty of ways to use it
Montbell says:
Made with supple, water-repellent fabric, this lightweight blanket is insulated with soft, ultra-fine DOWN FIBER for excellent warmth and comfort. Snap buttons and drawcords allow versatile use as a blanket, shawl, wrap skirt, or for connecting with other items in the series. Finished in a reversible design.
Our Verdict
The Feather Blanket L is a lightweight insulated blanket designed for general camp use and as a supplement to your sleep system. At 422g and 126 x 190cm, it gives enough coverage to use over your legs, around your shoulders or as an extra layer over a sleeping system.
Montbell has switched from conventional 650FP down to its 500FP Down Fibre insulation and moved to a lighter 15D shell. The new version is slightly heavier, narrower, and packs larger than the outgoing model.
What I like most is the flexibility. The snaps and drawcord let you wear it as a shawl or wrap, while it can also be clipped into a simple sleeping shape.
