The Serpentes Skirt Quilt 45f is a traditional quilt style sleep system with draft skirt. The draft skirt is a 8″ wide skirt that drops down from the sides of the quilt to block drafts and allow the sleeper to control the edges in an ultralight feature that adds very little weight. If it is left hanging down it blocks drafts from sneaking in. If the user tucks each side of the skirt under their body it can be used to control the edges and keep them where you want without any drafts entering. It can even function similarly to a false bottom, albeit manually positioned, but with the option of opening up for venting. The skirt also has a channel on the edge which a shock cord can be run through to achieve edge tension. Since the channel is out on the skirt, unwanted tension on the insulation is avoided and the skirt can be cinched up into a faux false bottom. The listed quilt widths are for the insulated area only and the draft skirt width is added to it.
It has horizontal sewn through chambers stuffed with 1000 fill power down and a puffy draft collar. The top is connected with two snaps and cinched with a shock cord. It is important with any sleep system that it is paired with a sleeping pad rated to similar temperatures. It is especially important with quilts and false bottom bags and it should be noted that pads that utilize empty spaces are generally not suitable for these types of sleep systems.
This should be used with a Waterbear Balaclava or it can be used with other types of head insulation. https://timmermade.com/product-category/sleep-systems/balaclavas/
This can be paired with an overbag to manage moisture and boost it’s temperature rating. https://timmermade.com/product-category/sleep-systems/overbags/
