Snugpak’s Special Forces 1 is a sleeping bag for temperatures above freezing. It has an incredibly light and small pack size, only about 16 x 16 cm when fully compressed. The Special Forces 1 offers all the advantages of the Softie range. The Softie® Premier filling combines the benefits of natural down with the insensitivity of synthetic fibres. It uses superfine yarns tied with special resins to create a luxurious down feel. As a result, the plastic fibre meets the highest requirements. Even in cold and wet weather, Softie® Premier insulation remains warm, light and breathable. The wind- and water-repellent Paratex Steelplate outdoor material and the Softie® Premier filling make the sleeping bag impervious to moisture. To speed up the warming of the sleeping bag, a layer of Reflectatherm is sewn into it. Reflectatherm is a metallized, highly breathable fabric sewn between the inner fabric and the Softie® Premier filling. It reflects the heat released by the body and thus achieves one to 15% better heat storage. A zipper with a continuous, insulated zipper; A mummy shape for warmth and comfort and a padded, form-fitting hood with adjustable cord. All this ensures a good night’s sleep, even if the temperature drops. The Softie 3 Merlin is durable, breathable and water repellent, it is incredibly light and can be compressed into small pieces.
The Special Forces 2 sleeping bag from Snugpak can be used separately or in combination with the Special Forces 1 and combined into a sleeping bag for temperatures of -15°C.
