Big Agnes says:
A large, luxurious quilt by evening and a snug sleeping bag at night, all at about one pound. Hang out by the fire in quilt mode - then when it gets late, simply retire to your tent, turn the Flipit™ Footbox inside out, and zip up for a cozy night's sleep. Featuring Big Agnes Signature Diamond Quilting with premium down insulation, and ultralight NetPlus® fabric made from recycled fishing nets, this hybrid bag has you covered on warm weather backcountry missions.
