Ultralight Down Quilt

Looking for the best warmth-to-weight ratio on the market? Kiwi Ultralight down quilts redefine outdoor sleep comfort.  

This is not a sleeping bag, it's the next step up in outdoor sleep systems allowing you to recreate the comfort of your bed while hiking. Quilts are open on the underside and designed to be attached to a sleeping pad or hut mattress using the included pad straps. Quilts have the advantage of being lighter than a sleeping bag of the same comfort rating (given that the compressed down on the bottom of your sleeping bag provides no insulation). Additionally, unlike most other companies, Kiwi Ultralight quilts are labelled by comfort rating rather than limit or extreme rating, so you're certain to be warm at the temperature listed.

 

Quilt Features

 

  • 850+ fill power goose down (ethically sourced and RDS certified).
  • Box baffle design (not sewn through, so no cold spots).
  • 20% overstuff to for improved durability and longevity.
  • Ultra soft 10D nylon outer shell.
  • Three size options available (see below for guidance for the perfect fit).
  • Versatile foot box can be closed on cold nights using a zip and drawstring.
  • Wide top/hip cut (140cm), tapered footbox design.
  • Strategic horizontal channels at key areas, plus vertical baffles elsewhere
  • Packed dimensions: 30x20cm (compresses further if needed).
  • Includes stuff sack, storage sack, pad straps.
  • Labelled by comfort rating for honest comparison. 

 

Temperature Ratings

Both quilt designs are tailored for New Zealand’s variable weather. Our temperature ratings aim to provide realistic expectations for comfort and safety in the outdoors:

Comfort Rating

Limit Rating

5°C

-1°C

0°C

-6°C

-5°C

-12°C


What do these ratings mean?

Comfort Rating refers to the temperature where the average user should have a comfortable night's sleep. This rating is calculated for the average woman.

Limit Rating is based on quilt loft and represents the lowest temperature for safe sleeping, but may not ensure comfort.

Men may find their own comfort & limit ratings up to 6°C lower than shown here, so keep this in mind when comparing with other products.

For all sleep systems, ground insulation is critical. We strongly recommend an insulated pad with an R-value of 3–4 for three-season use.

Note: Your actual sleep comfort depends on personal factors and your chosen ground insulation.
