At just 911 grams for the regular size and 962 grams for the extended version, the Kuk 500 is impressively lightweight, making it an excellent option for backpackers who prioritise minimising pack weight. This sleeping bag excels in compressibility thanks to its high-grade Ukrainian goose down, which provides superb thermal insulation while packing down to a compact size of 20 cm x 20 cm. The downfill offers an excellent warmth-to-weight ratio, with a comfort rating of +0°C and a comfort limit of -6°C, allowing it to handle a range of temperatures from summer to early winter.
The anatomical shape of the Kuk 500 ensures a snug fit, enhancing thermal efficiency and reducing cold spots. Its practical centre zip has a baffle to prevent heat loss and ease of entry and exit.
