Feel-good climate
The special thing about this sleeping bag is its innovative insulation: you quickly feel that you are not getting too cold or too warm in a DownWool® sleeping bag. It creates a dry body climate and compensates for temperature fluctuations.
This is achieved through the innovative mix of natural materials down and wool. This combination is patent pending and acts as a light and natural air conditioning system. The DownWool ® sleeping bag from Grüezi bag® offers significant advantages over pure down or synthetic fiber sleeping bags:
Nothing insulates as well as high-quality down, because down has a very high insulation performance with a low weight.
However, down only insulates as long as it is dry and fluffy. As humidity increases, the fine branches of the down collapse, the down clumps and the insulation ability decreases significantly. Chemical agents are often used to make the down water-repellent.
With DownWool®, the treatment of the down becomes unnecessary thanks to the addition of wool. Wool can absorb up to 30% of its own weight in moisture. This means that wool naturally keeps the down drier and thus maintains the insulating effect of the down.
The wool not only ensures effective moisture regulation, but also regulates body temperature. Wool absorbs moisture and releases it to the outside in a measured amount so that no evaporative cooling occurs. This regulation enables a warming or cooling effect and creates a dry, comfortable body climate. Even when wet, it retains its warming properties, something no other material can do. Wool naturally creates a cozy and pleasant microclimate. The wool also neutralizes unpleasant sweat odors.
Thanks to the unique effectiveness of DownWool® insulation, your body can save itself some of the energy-consuming work of regulating body temperature. The energy saved is available for regeneration while you sleep.
The result is good insulation and a wide temperature range in which you feel comfortable and can sleep well. This makes DownWool® sleeping bags from Grüezi bag® popular all-rounders.

Outer and inner fabric: Ultralight, durable and recycled 20 denier 380T nylon (100% polyamide) that feels incredibly soft, supple and silky on the skin. This is achieved by pulling the fabric over hot rollers to constrict the pores. This makes the fabric down-proof, impermeable to clothes moths and still remains naturally breathable without the usual plastic coating. The pores do not stick together either due to the bio-based BeSoDRY-ECO impregnation or the sustainable BEMACRON dyes. The outer material is therefore windproof and highly water-repellent.

Material identification : Shell 100% polyamide, filling 70% down/30% wool - contains non-textile parts of animal origin.
