    Hey Cam , try this site Sea To Summit - Adventure, Outdoor, Camping, Hiking, Gear and Accessories, Perth, Australia, Sea To Summit USA . These guys make some of the best gear you can get , their sleeping bags are available in NZ with 850 loft down with their patented DRYDOWN down treatment.

    I got mine from bivouac outdoors. I love it but it's the only down bag I've had so I don't have anything to compare it with.
    Yeah nah bro

    Got an email back from bivouac re the dri down as it wasnt mentioned on their site.

    Dear Cam,

    Your question regarding product Sea to Summit Trek TkIII Sleeping Bag has been answered

    Your question:
    Does this bag have the dri down fill as mentioned on the sea to summit site?
    I can find no mention of it here and is the main reason I am interested in it.


    Their answer is:
    Hi Cam, Thank you for your email. At this stage Trek series sleeping bags we have are not the ones with the ultra-dry down. The supplier is waiting on a new shipment that will have the updated sleeping bags however I am not sure when it will arrive. Thanks
