Get THIS quilt instead || It’s BETTER, WARMER and CHEAPER! (Sierra Designs Nitro 20 vs Paria 15F)
I made a mistake and bought the Sierra Designs Nitro 20 backpacking quilt. I don’t like bashing on backpacking gear, but this quilt is so expensive, doesn’t keep you warm, lacks standard features, and somehow still has excellent ratings. Consider this a backpacking quilt public service announcement. But it’s not enough to just tell you not to buy this quilt. I’ll give a more affordable and warmer quilt option that I have been using for years and LOVE. 🏕️ 👉 Help Support AND Shape Dose of Dirt through Patreon: / doseofdirt You can vote in polls to help decide what gear to buy, test, review, and then give away to Patreon members!
