Quilt Manufacturers

[ctwiggs1]

Hey guys, any quilt recommendations?  I am in the market for one but it looks like I waited too long. EE and Katabatic couldn’t guarantee they will have one ready to ship before high buck. 

Any others you guys have experience with and like? 

TIA!

Bummer, I heard that custom EE is 6 weeks out. didn't know everything else was. I have a 20 degree revelation and love it.

VIAM Outdoors. I have several pieces of gear from VIAM (6AM) Outdoors including a quilt. Top barrel quality, rock solid customer service, very competitive pricing. Send me a PM and I’ll give you Tristans (head cook and bottle washer) email if you wish. Happy shopping 

Edit:  Just emailed back and forth with Tristan, they do have some “ready to ship” now.

The only reason I haven’t bought a VIAM is because I believe they’re all synthetic. No down. I might be wrong.

I think I’m running out of options at this point so I may have to take the weight penalty.  It still beats what I have now.

I have an EE and it's ok.  I wouldn't say its fantastic, but the quality and construction are fine.  I ordered the extra fill and not sure I got it, I can hold it up to a light and see areas where there is little to no down in a 3 season quilt.  I wonder if the hiker ultralight crowd is used to sleeping in their clothes during good weather.

Check out hammockgear.com that’s where I got mine, the quilt itself is really high quality but I would upgrade the straps for the pad

@92xj, saw that one.  For VIAM, I'd have to go with the longer ones.  Thanks tho

I've been very happy with my EE. Only complaint is the regular could be like an inch longer. I'm 5'9" and if I really snuggle in my feet compress the foot box a bit

6'2", but EE can't ship on time (see original post). 

My very last piece of Army issued gear to leave my pack - my 18.4lb sleeping bag .  It's time!

How weird are people about using used sleeping bags?
You know my situation I'm about to enter on Monday,
I can ship you my EE long/wide to borrow this season since I will not be using it.
I can also send my cuben bivy (7oz) that keeps pad, quilt and you all in one little burrito.
