Guys we now have the Super B available in 3.6oz apex as well as 2.5. My primary sleep system this year has been comprised of one or both weights of Super B and my bivy through some pretty hostile weather. I did have to add a15 degree bag to the mix for a good chunk of the opening week of Montana general season this year in the pioneers, but it was real cold as some of y’all know.

2.5oz super b is $155
3.6oz super b is $165

This was a short run with Shell material leftover from the last run, so quantities are currently limited, I’d go ahead and order one if you want one.

Shipping will resume on December 2 any orders from this week will go out priority 3 day that morning. Use discount code 24HCF For free shipping

we Had to start somewhere. With no loans, no outside investors, no Kickstarter, and no go fund me starting with both wasn’t an option.

If you are a “long-standing customer” aka MCH, pm me and let’s see what we can work out if you want to see what the 3.6 is all about.


Guys if you buy both of these it is like $320 and 2.5lbs for the most versatile 3 season sleep (and so much more) system available and it’s made in the USA by people who fought for it. A lot. Thanks for looking and thanks for giving us a shot and putting us on the map.

Just busting your balls! I will more than likely buy a 3.6 later!

Kind of. I don’t have a sack that will compress the 2.6 completely so I’ve shown it with me squishing it. It compresses to tiny. The 3.6 compresses to quite small.


This gallery shows the 2.5 and the 3.6 in the same stuff sack. As mentioned I provided manual compression with the 2.5oz

btw a 2.5 quilt (roughly a 45 degree quilt) w/ a 3.6 quilt (roughly 35 degree) should yield pretty close to a 15 degree system

I’ve found a 3.6 Apex blanket wrapped around me while glassing makes all the difference. I’m leaning towards the 2.5 as it would pack smaller and be enough to make most conditions quite tolerable.

Another one headed to Anchorage.
I'm anxious to try it out.

Wow. Guys we are playing catch up If your tracking number shows your quilt hasn’t left yet have no fear we are making it happen. I had no way to anticipate the volume we would do this weekend. We had some adds running on social media and we had more hits this weekend than we’ve had on the website to date. Seems like the 3.6 is going to be popular!!

Talk about growing pains.

We have caught up on 3.6oz quilts. As of Today all orders are fulfilled. I’m hoping our new order of shell material will arrive today but it doesn’t seem Like it.



I have (3) more 3.6oz quilts sewn and ready to roll but we ran out of 550 cord for the draw cords. I can source the 550 locally and these will be ready to go this weekend. Lead time on 3.6 oz quilts will be a full 2 weeks after these 3 are sold. I have 2.5oz quilts ready to go. Guys- we started with the 2.5 because if you’re only going to have 1- it is the way to go. The 3.6 is awesome
For sure but slightly less likely to always be appropriate. The 2.5 is like cowboy boots topsiders or xtra tuffs Always right never wrong.

SoldierSystems gave us a mention earlier this week or last week. Looks like the word is spreading!!


Guys I was doing final assembly on a few 3.6oz quilts yesterday to get them out to North Ga and SeAK. Lead time on 3.6oz quilts remains about 2weeks. We should have a bunch ready to go out later this week but those are almost all presold.

2.5 oz Super B’s are available and ship the same day and through the weekend you can use the discount code “social” at checkout for $10 off a 2.5oz Super B.
