The Ascent 700 is a versatile mid-weight, down-filled sleeping bag that provides reliable protection over three seasons. Designed specifically for regular camping, backpacking and general mountain use, it is ideal for those buying their first down sleeping bag, and is perfect for the likes of cold bivis and Scottish winter.
The Ascent 700 is a hard-wearing high performing sleeping bag you can depend on for comfort and protection over three seasons. Ideal for general purpose outdoor use, from bothy to bivvy, the Ascent range equips you for regular mountain adventures. Durable, tough, and reliably warm, the Ascent is especially suitable for those wanting to invest in their first down sleeping bag. Offering excellent value for the feature set, which is similar to that of the more technical Rab bags, this hard working piece provides protection and comfort on the hill, trail, or peak.
Using a highly durable Pertex® Quantum outer fabric, the Ascent 700 sleeping bag is filled with 700g of 650FP ethically sourced European Duck Down. The generous wide mummy fit and wide foot box provide extended comfort and a spacious feel that is still secure and warm. The close fitting neck baffle design, internal collar and hood drawcord provide additional protection to keep you cosy when temperatures drop. Featuring a three-quarter length YKK main zip with glow in the dark puller, a plush bonded zip guard also excludes draughts.
Practicalities are taken care of with an internal zipped stash pocket stuff pocket that easily fits phone and other essentials. The Ascent 700 comes with cotton storage sack and stuff sack to ensure a manageable packsize and protection on the road. As with all Rab down insulated bags, it is hand filled in Derbyshire using Hydrophobic Down developed in conjunction with Nikwax®.

High quality bag on all sides, pack size, drawstrings, fabrics - everything works and is high quality. One star off, because the tightening strap of the heat collar escapes from the opening (at least after the first night's stay). I can’t yet tell if it’s a fault or a feature.
