[QUOTE="Litehiker, post: 1481749, member: 54178"] The two premium down bag makers in the US are Feathered Friends and Western Mountaineering. Even worldwide these makers are considered at the very top in quality. I have had a Western Mountaineering Megalite bag for 6 years and it looks like the day I bought it. It was rated for 30 F. and it got me through a 24 F. night on the Pacific Crest Trail in good shape. But I sent it back to WM and had it "overfilled" with a few more ounces of down to make it a good 20 F. bag. I've used it down to 15 F. (with long johns) with no problems. So look at both of those Made in USA brands. Eric B. [/QUOTE]
