Plenty wide enough!!!

I think also a major part of the price tag which we are not considering is maybe the collaboration thing........ two companies = x2 mark up......I am not saying it doesn't still cost a fortune to manufacture, just if you got 20% profit x 2 it would put quite a bit on the final bill

Mine landed today and although obviously not tested it yet, I am very impressed with how well it is made. As near as the original tails up bag as your get but even better design of the top layer, twin zips and bed hair attachment.

Just the right size around my mid and I'm a 15 stone, 47 inch chest...plenty of room for you 6 footers plus, I'm only 5'10" so loads for me.

Some close up pic's would be nice Miles, pics on the net go out of focus when I try to expand them.

Thanks mate. Only 4 cm shy of the wide boy bag I think. And that's huge on me now.

Received my DPM Techlite today and first impressions are very good, build quality is second to none as with all Snugpak products.

The bag is super lightweight and very thin for a 5 season bag but this means nothing where snugpak are concerned, I have no doubt it'll be seriously warm.

Will be out with it for two nights from tomorrow so will post my thoughts early next week.


Johnson Ross will have a small number of these bags on the stand at Sandown next weekend if those interested want a look.

Any field reports on the bag from the few people who have theirs already?

I would like one of these. Looks like a good bit of kit.
However it's a bit too big for my compact bedchair.
