Flex 22 Ultralight Quilt

Flex foot box is adequate. It’s a lot of down and as long as you arent over 5 foot 11 shouldn’t be putting any pressure towards the bottom to make a cold spot. Does make it more versatile in warm temps too Personally felt like my Nemo tensor all season and flex 22 were too warm for Rae lakes in November in freezing night conditions. Felt more comfortable in just base layers flex 22 same pad snow camping in Yosemite in my borah bivvy. I have a 40 degree enigma that I use for 80 percent of my trips but when I need a guarantee of warmth that’s when I go flex 22. But I also think I’m a warm sleeper

It's worth it. I bought a Flex 22 duck down and every humid night it stank like wet animal. Drove me nuts and I sold it and went with Nunatak goose down. I think goose down is worth every penny more just for the lack of smell benefits.

Katabatic flex 22 👍🏻

I have a Katabatic Flex 22. It is my favorite piece of gear. Their pad attachment system is the best that I have seen. I sleep way better than I did when I used a sleeping bag.

Western Mountaineering or Feathered Friends for a sleeping bag. Katabatic or Nunatak for a quilt. I have a Katabatic Flex 22. It is my favorite piece of gear.

I have a Katabatic Flex 22 that is pretty great, if I could only have two quilts I’d get a 20-30 degree quilt and a 40-ish synthetic overquilt for layering purposes. A 30F sleeping bag would roast me in the summer. I would look into synthetic quilts from Mountain Laurel Designs, Enlightened Equipment, or look into making your own.

I would HIGHLY recommend the Katabatic Flex 22 degree with 1 OZ overstuff. Preferably the 900 Fill. I have used it for 5000 miles of hiking and will say it by far is superior.

Katabatic. You’ll be fine with the 5’6”. I am 5’4” and the flex 22 is A+.
