Nemo says:
The perfect complement to our elite ultralight kit, Pulse is built for the spec-conscious thru hiker who`s willing to make sacrifices in favor of swiftness. This quilt-style sleeping bag design capitalizes on the insulating power of NEMO sleeping pads and offers the best warmth-to-weight ratio in its category with 1,000 FP ExpeDRY gold-infused down. (The down stays evenly dispersed within Karo Step baffles, a construction decision that uses roughly 45% less material.) Pulse`s enclosed footbox keeps feet cozy overnight while included elastic straps can be used to securely attach the bag to a sleeping pad for either casual coverage or a snug seal from the cold. Premium Cohaesive® hardware pairs with a plush collar baffle to further block drafts overnight. Made with 100% recycled polyester ripstop with a PFAS-free DWR coating, Pulse is part of the fully recyclable Endless Promise® collection and is designed to stay out of the landfill forever. When its adventures are over, just send it back to NEMO — we`ll handle the rest.
