Sure it's a Trakker, if you're right probably the reason for the Trakker fleece cover/topper, was it called peach skin? I know I have the bag, Mrs uses it for camping at times, I'll have to dig it out and see, would be funny to have my army arctic, the trakker and ventec next to each other, Ventec big

Curiosity got the better of me
My Trakker bag is neither I thought to be, it's the Big Mother Duck Down bag...I might have known it would be I can't see a rating on it but it's got to be a 5.
Pictures,

The days of catalogues :-)

Edited, Artic, not 5S

I have the new Trakker 365 camo, really pleased with it.
I'm 6'4” and really appreciate the extra foot room they have built in.
Have used it several times this winter, at temps down to -3 and it's really cosy.

I have the Fox Ventec XL bag which is just luxurious and OTT but warm no matter the weather ( yes, I have been at - 3 or -4c and not really noticed it but tbf I have an MF60 and a Fox Vrs cover over it and I'm still in the first 'summer' layer, it was frozen over the bivvy the other week and I didn't realise it was so cold until I got breamed at 3am and found the bivvy was heavily frosted.

Get any half decent bag and chuck a decent cover and it'll see you through the winter NP at all.

I wouldn't swap my ventec for anything,my winter bag before that was an old wychwood maximiser (I think it was called)..it was down filled, heavy and massive and not that great at keeping you warm.
