With such an ingenious design, its easy to see why the MontBell U.L. Super Stretch Hugger #2 won Outside magazines Gear of the Year award. Not only is the MontBell U.L. Super Stretch Hugger #2 warm, its super light.

The MontBell U.L. Super Stretch Hugger #2 weighs in at only 1 pound 11 ounces. That makes this sucker lighter than your water bottle! Despite its weight, the MontBell U.L. Super Stretch Hugger #2 still packs a punch. Filled with 800-fill down, this bag is plenty warm.

Its not the 800-fill or light weight that makes the MontBell U.L. Super Stretch Hugger #2 so outstanding. The cool feature here is the stitching. The MontBell U.L.
