Western Mountaineering HighLite Sleeping Bag - Ultralight 2°C Down

The Western Mountaineering HighLite sleeping bag is an ultralight down bag for climbers who want maximum weight savings with essential warmth. At around 455g total (180cm) and rated to 2°C, it's one of the lightest high-performance bags available.

850+ fill power goose down and a hybrid sewn-through plus vertical baffle construction keep loft and down distribution efficient while packing extremely small. The 12D ExtremeLite shell is a high-thread-count fabric that's durable for its weight, breathable and compact. A half-length #4 YKK zip saves weight while allowing basic ventilation, and the optimised mummy cut with lower internal volume heats up fast. Choose the HighLite for summer alpine trips, fastpacking, thru-hiking and bikepacking when weight and pack size are critical, or as part of a layered system.
