Product description

Comfort Female: -8.8°C
Comfort Limit Men: -15°C
Extreme: -35°C

The Defence 4 is the most popular and best-selling all-round sleeping bag with excellent weight to stuff size and performance ratio. It is a well-established, 3-season sleeping bag that has proven to be 100% reliable on cold nights both in the wilderness and in snow caves. A protection flap on the outer side of the zipper keeps out wind and wetness.
The outer shell is a super-light, highly resistant, microfibre nylon with a fine microporous coating which makes it water-repellent. There is a generous draft tube on the inside of the zipper to prevent heat loss at the zipper.

  • G-LOFT ISO+ FILLING; Manufactured from high-quality bi-component polymers, the structure of G-LOFT insulation is in fact similar in many ways to high-quality goose down. The 3-dimensional crimping ensures maximum resilience and loft.
  • DIFFERENTIAL CUT; Even when the sleeper moves about compressing the inner layer of insulation, the sleeping bag’s warmth is retained. Successive insulating layers are cut more generously. This ensures the greatest loft in all areas and in every position. Additional air cushions form between the various layers. Movement inside the sleeping bag creates pressure points, but with our differential cut only the innermost layer is compressed. The outer layers retain their loft and therefore their insulating properties.
  • THERMOFLECT; Thermoflect increases the heat retention of a sleeping bag by around 11 %. Thermoflect is our solution to heat loss due to body radiation. Thermoflect is an ultra-light, ultra-soft, breathable scrim with the unique ability to reflect body-heat.
  • THE TRAPEZOIDAL FOOT SECTION; Experience has shown that the trapezoidal cut provides the ultimate foot space. In a normal sleeping position, the feet do not poke the insulation outward, avoiding cold spots. There is also enough room to store a shoe bag or extra clothing.
  • THE MUMMY SHAPE; Here the criteria of stuff size, weight and warmth are most important. The tapered foot section reduces weight and stuff size. The main advantage is, however, that from the knee downwards there is increasingly less internal volume to keep warm. The foot section should not be so small that the feet cause the layers of insulation to poke out. A trapezoidal foot section has proven to be ideal. A wedge shape, declining evenly in width from top to bottom, does not fit the true proportions of the body.
  • LAYER SANDWICH CONSTRUCTION WITH LOOSE SHELL; G-LOFT Plus insulation layers have offset quilting. The shell is not quilted with the filling, but attached later. This provides an air cushion between the insulation and the shell. With no stitch perforations in the shell, it is relatively water and airtight.
  • TWO WAY ZIPPER; All Carinthia military sleeping bags are equipped with a two way zipper. The glider on the top does not snag, allowing a quick step out if necessary (in case of alert for example). The glider on the down side does stick and can be opened for ventilation.
  • COMBINABLE SLEEPING BAG SYSTEM; Some of our sleeping bags can be combined to a sleeping bag system. Such a system can be used as a 4 Season Sleeping Bag and allows you to carry only the weight and the bulk necessary for the prevailing temperatures.

Outer shell: Shellproof (100% PA + PU Coating)

Works even in severe frosts in a half-team tent with a stove. Easy to pack in the included bag.

The bag has a good feel and can withstand severe frosts The only downside I've found so far is that if you want to keep the sleeping bag open a little, even in the summer, the velcro sticker on the right side sticks to the skin annoyingly.

A very good sleeping bag. I bought an L-sized bag and it fit my 190-centimeter frame very well, and there is still room at the end of the leg to dry and warm things. Placing the zipper in the middle of the bag is really smart because it works for both right- and left-handed people. The zipper is also very smooth and reliable, and the bag can only be opened by gently pulling on the edges of the bag. This is an important feature for me because I want a bag that opens immediately and without complications if I'm in a hurry for one reason or another. By adjusting the zipper, the bag can be comfortably ventilated in the summer or when staying indoors. Tested in a T-shirt and boxers in -8.5 degree frost and +16 degree indoor accommodation and in both I slept like a bear in its nest. The bag breathes incredibly well. The only slightly disturbing thing is the position of the Hood's clamps, they want to hang right at the mouth when the Hood is pulled up, but you get used to this too. I was torn between this and the more expensive down sleeping bag, but in the end I chose this one because it can be washed in the machine without the filling getting completely ruined, and this is a much cheaper option. Carinthia Trope is coming here as a friend, so she can handle even worse frosts. In summary, a very good value for money package. You can definitely find lighter sleeping bags, but you can't get them cheaper with the same features.

Amazing sleeping bag. Easy access to get in and out and regulate temperature. The compression bag that comes with it is very good, no need to buy additional gear for it.

Excellent sleeping bag. What it loses in down bags with the corresponding heat classification in weight and size, it wins in carefreeness and reliability. Found to be excellent and feels airy and comfortable to wear. It also goes with you in the summer, mostly as a blanket, and if necessary, it can withstand the cold with a good sleeping pad, well below freezing.

Fits well and can fit a zero-temperature down bag inside for severe frosts.
