The Ascent 500 is a mid-weight, down-filled sleeping bag, designed specifically for regular outdoor use, ideal for those buying their first down sleeping bag.
Using a highly durable Pertex® Microlight inner and outer fabric, the Ascent 500 is filled with 500g of 750FP European Duck Down, and is designed in a user-friendly rectangular shape, ideal for general purpose outdoor use. The Ascent range of sleeping bags offers great value for the feature set, which is similar to that of the more technical Rab® bags, such as internal YKK stash pockets, anti-snag webbing tape and a trapezoidal baffle design to eliminate cold spots.
