Custom Serratus Down TopQuilt

Description Please note lead times at the top of the screen. Thanks for the continuing support for my business! The Premium Toaster Serratus series of quilts  Custom color choices and made to your specifications (colors and materials) The Serratus Top quilt is designed to keep you warm and toasty whether you sleep on a pad in your tent or while sleeping in a hammock. Topquilts are made to save weight and bulk as compared to a normal sleeping bag. This is done by removing the zipper and material that is normally below your body and using the sleeping pad as your insulating barrier. In a hammock the Underquilt provides your insulation below you. Make no mistake this quilt excels for use on the ground in a tent!  90% of my topquilts are going to hikers using it in conjunction with a warm pad and a tent. This Topquilt works for users on the ground (in a tent using an insulated sleeping pad) &/or in a hammock. The design of the Serratus uses vertical box baffles combined with a horizontal baffle at the foot. Inside each baffle there is a ‘baffle gate’ system to help prevent movement of down while you are sleeping while still allowing you to move down to spots that you would like warmer or cooler.  There is a cinch cord at the foot end and top.  These allow you to control air movement effectively ‘venting’ hot air in different temperatures.  This makes it easier to use a warm quilt in warm temperatures creating a more versatile quilt for your hiking and camping needs. It might look like long vertical tubes but there is more to it internally to keep it warm without having any bridging or arcing over your body.  It drapes over you keeping you warm inside. Another benefit to a cinch bottom / zip design (vs a sewn up footbox) is that it is easier to dry.  You can spread the quilt right out in the sun (while on the trail allowing more surface area to be in the sunlight. At the foot end there is an integrated insulated plug for completely closing off the footbox end without overtightening it.  In a situation where you would prefer a blanket rather than a bag, you can completely open up the quilt (unzipping the footbox – 20″ zipper at foot) and uncinch the bottom to allow a nice area blanket. The Serratus comes with one pad strap (more can be purchased if desired), a storage bag to allow the quilt to stay lofted up during storage and a stuff sack. Down used in all Little Shop of Hammocks quilts in sourced, produced and purchased in Canada.  It is ethically sourced as well. To reiterate, none of the down is from China nor is it bleached. This means the down is a higher grade / quality than what you may find in other quilts AND it IS Locally Made in Canada. We try and keep our dollars in Canada to support local. Includes: Stuff Sack and storage bag (for when not in use) One pad strap (2 sets of pad strap clips are on each quilt which allows you to have up to two straps per system) All have a Cinch bottom foot box with zipper. #3   zipper to create the footbox. Slightly offset neck cinch cord with a pocket to put the excess cord into (new 2025). Options: Temperature (ratings are based on loft / baffle filled with down to achieve a desired temperature range) 3 temperature ranges to pick : 0°C (32°F), -7°C (20°F) , -12°C (10°F) These are comfort rated so please take note that these do not compare to ratings on a sleeping bag that show ‘extreme ratings’. These are much warmer. A -12°C TQ will not be comfortable in the summer. You will sweat and chill. Most hikers will take a -7°C in the mountains as their insulation with cooler nights. Non mountain use may see you enjoying a 0°C which should let you enjoy almost 3 season use. For winter quilts I recommend you add a draft collar and possibly go to a partial taper. Length  The quilts are designed to pull up to your chin. If you wish to cover your head pick the next longer quilt. If you are on the edge of the height, move around a lot when sleeping, pick the next longer quilt these recommendations are max height Short (69″/175cm *76) Fits people up to approx. 5’6″ cinched up 20°F – Finished Length 69″x54″ (137 cm at head) as a flat quilt In footbox mode the length shortens roughly 5″/6″ more (63″) Regular (74″/188cm*81) Fits people  up to approx. 5’9/5’10” cinched up 20° Finished Length 74″x54″ (137 cm at head) as a flat blanket In footbox mode the length shortens roughly 5″/6″ more (68″) Tall (79″/200.5cm *86) Fits people approx up to 6’3″ cinched up 20°F Finished Width 79″x54″(137 cm at head) as a flat blanket In footbox mode the length shortens 5″/6″ more (73/74″) Xtall (84″/213cm)*90  20° Finished width approx 84×54 (137 cm at head) as a flat blanket In footbox mode the length shortens 5″/6″ more (79″) Width – 55″(Finished width) (138cm) Taper  Partial Taper: (Standard) Full width for 19″ (approx) then tapers inwards towards the bottom (6″ from each inner edge). Increases volume area in the body of the quilt. Full Taper :  A full taper narrows in from the top to the bottom narrowing inwards 6″ at the bottom edges. This helps to prevent excess air space in the foot box. Purpose: Tapering a quilt is primarily done to reduce material usage and weight. By making the quilt wider at the head and narrower at the foot, fabric can be saved, especially in the foot area. Types of Taper: Full Taper: This refers to a quilt that tapers dramatically from the head to the foot, narrowing significantly at the bottom. Partial Taper: This involves a more gradual taper, often starting from the 1/3 point down (from the top) of the quilt’s length. Down Fill – Premium Canadian Sourced  Canadian Hutterite White Down.  850 Fill Power Canadian White Duck Down (WDD) White down brightens the fabric, of the quilt. Neck Draft Collar – optional A small draft collar to keep heat from escaping from around the neck. Handy on those colder nights. With warmer weather quilts it might be overkill and harder to vent. Will add an 1-1.5 oz to final weight Can be added in the quilt options menu Loops / clips (2) All quilts come with pad attachment clips (2) plus one strap. If you do not want the option deselect it. You can another strap in the Quilt Options Menu Clips attach to corresponding clips on the elastic cord around the pad. Here’s a video clip showing how the pad staps work FootBox  Zipper / cinch Allows you to open up the quilt totally like a blanket. Easy venting and drying.
