You need to get two.
And send one to me.

Well, with these things about to start landing with you guys I figured I need throw up a gallery with a few pictures and an explanation of how the 2 primary configurations of the Super B are achieved. It’s far from comprehensive but this thing is intuitive enough I doubt y’all will have issues. I just wanted to give you guys a familiarization mainly. This link is to a 24HCF gallery not offsite.

I see it getting used a lot out wolf hunting and field hunting ducks and geese! Bears? Did someone say Bears? I am going to try to kill me one of them this Spring.

Well, I’m almost out of our initial run of Super B’s. We are working out a short run of them with the materials we had on hand- but more exciting than that, today we took delivery of our first order of Climashield Apex 3.6 and we should have 3.6 oz Super B’s available 1st week of December, alongside the 2.5oz Super B’s.
To those who asked- why it’s called Super B = Superior Blanket

I've used something similar as a topquilt for cold elk hunts - it's a game changer. Pull one of these up over your 15 degree bag and you're warm to low single digits...I'd be all over this if I needed one.

Just looked at the gallery pictures. It’s a quilt with no zippers, right?

No zippers. It utilizes Toggles with 550 cord loops and draw cords as it’s fastening system

Guys just a heads up. I’m going to ship orders out Monday AM and then we will be suspending shipping until the following Monday Dec 2. If you Order this weekend you will have your Super B thanksgiving week, as everything is going to go out USPS priority. If you Order during thanksgiving week, you will get a tracking number but your package will not hit the post until dec2.

Sorry for the delay. Arrived just before I headed out for weekend pheasant hunt. Shipping was fast. The Super B is LIGHT and build quality is good. Done with big game for the year but it might get used for coyotes in the near future. I think it will be a nice supplement to puffy pants and jacket for long sits spotting for deer/elk.
Thanks!

Mine was waiting for me when I got home. Looks like it will be useful for a lot of situations. Kind of wish I had it this weekend, as I ended up doing some unplanned hiking around in the cold.

Just got mine out of the dryer (yup I'm a bit anal so it got washed before use). Looks like a well put together and super light/packable. I'm looking forward to adding it to my pack and using it next week. Super gracious seller.

Great looking product I’m hoping to try it out on the trail in next couple of weekends!
Is the insulation ok with being compressed for long periods of time or will it lose its effectiveness?

Thanks for your purchase!!
Climashield Apex is what we find to be the most durable option available for insulation. It is resilient when it comes to being compressed, but in order to maximize its effectiveness and performance lifespan we advise against storing your Super B in a highly compressed state for extended periods.
