An expedition down sleeping bag designed specifically for the extreme cold of high altitude mountaineering. The Expedition 8000 is suitable for temperatures of -22°F and beyond.

Designed purely for attempts on the World's great peaks. The Expedition 8000 XT Sleeping Bags are made with a larger 'expedition fit' to allow the wearing of down clothing as required, available in Small/Medium & Medium/Large sizes.

The Expedition 8000 XT sleeping bags are appropriate for temperatures of -22 to -40°F.

The Expedition 8000 XT sleeping bags utilise the most advanced features to achieve maximum warmth even in the most severe extreme-cold conditions: Hydronaute XT laminated membrane fabric protects from exterior moisture while rapidly removing internal moisture vapour, vertical chest baffles lock down insulation in place for optimal warmth, a close fitting down filled hood with Hydronaute XT lining insulates your head while protecting down from moisture, a large boxfoot foot section with Hydronaute XT lining protects down from snow on your feet or booties, Mont's unique Cordless Collar System wraps comfortably around your shoulders and insulates better than traditional corded collars, and interlocking down-filled draught tubes protect from cold air creeping through the zip.

Down distribution: 55% canopy 45% base
Large boxfoot section accommodates the wearing of inner boots or down booties
Cross block baffles on torso prevent down shift between canopy & base
Radial Arc Baffle System on horizontal baffles maximises baffle loft height & warmth
Differential cut reduces compression & cold spots
Box walled chambers for warmth
Twin interlocking down-filled draught tubes along zip retain heat
Durable laminated Nylon anti-snag shield along zip
Contoured hood with down-filled muff
Unique Cordless Collar System wraps efficiently around shoulders without the need for fiddly and uncomfortable drawcords
Drawcords across chest and at top of hood
Recessed drawcords provide comfortable, warmth retaining closures
Tuck stitched seams: a construction method that conceals the stitch inside the sleeping bag thereby protecting it from abrasion and snagging. Tuck stitched seams are also more water resistant than top-stitched seams
Sewn with hydrophobic Epic thread to prevent moisture from wicking along seams and inside the shell
Toaster Pocket in boxfoot for air-activated heat pack
Full length YKK side zip with dual sliders
Includes siliconised-Nylon mechanical advantage compression stuff sack & 50L / 3,051cu.in polyester storage sack with printed care & washing instructions

Keeping your bag dry

HYDRONAUTE XT SHELL

Comfort in the Extreme: Using advanced monolithic PU membrane technology, Hydronaute XT fabric is completely waterproof, totally windproof & highly breathable. Guaranteed to maintain greater warmth & comfort than coated fabrics, Hydronaute XT is the best protection for down sleeping bags & clothing in cold to extreme conditions.

Waterproof to 20,000mm: Keeping down dry is vital for optimal performance; wet down just won't keep you warm. Waterproof Hydronaute XT fabric provides exceptional moisture protection for down clothing & sleeping bags.

Highly Breathable 20,000g/m2/24hrs: If not removed promptly, water vapour from your body will gather on down & reduce its ability to trap warmth. Hydronaute XT fabric expels 20L of water vapour per square metre per 24 hours for drier down, greater loft & maximum warmth.

Warmth Sealed In: With a 100% windproof rating, even Arctic blasts will not penetrate Hydronaute XT fabric, keeping warm air trapped inside.

Designed roomy

EXPEDITION FIT

Made with a larger 'expedition fit' to allow space for down clothing as required in extreme conditions. 

Small/Medium (S/M) size is appropriate for users up to 185cm tall 

Medium/Large (M/L) size for users up to 200cm tall.

Sustainable Practices

RESPONSIBLY SOURCED DOWN

RDS is an independent, voluntary global standard that ensures down is not sourced via live plucking, that birds are not force fed & that a birds welfare is always upheld.

Superior insulation

CORDLESS COLLAR SYSTEM

Our Cordless Collar System provides superior insulation around your shoulders and neck without the need for uncomfortable and fiddly draw cords.

The Cordless Collar can be wrapped snugly around your neck and shoulders or in warmer conditions can be secured inside the sleeping bag to increase ventilation.

The Cordless Collar is a unique Mont design and can be found on Brindabella, Spindrift and Expedition 8000 sleeping bags.
