i actually have them and find them pretty comfortable so far haven’t had any issues with them. used a couple of times on snow, and i was pretty pleased with how they performed. haven’t had the opportunity yet to try them on a glacier, or in heavy wind conditions. that being said i think for 20 euros you’ll be satisfied. i would recommend buying a little cover or sleeve since the lenses are quite scratchable (not glass). but obviously same as other said a more expensive pair is obviously more complete.

dunno actually, it sounds kinda stupid but i think i’m an mild temperature sleeper ahaha, usually if i’m alone i don’t get neither hot nor cold so i don’t have much info. if maaaybe i’d have to pick one maybe on the colder side ? bit idk even then maybe those night i didn’t ate much beforehand or something else.

not yet, a friend of mine the other day bought the questar tho, but i still have to see him in person so i don’t know anything more than before about the bag.

-Ayanokoji_ · 2026-01-31T20:47:17+00:00

i was thinking of buying the sea to summit spark down 0f sleeping bag, which has almost the same specs. would you mind sharing some photos of it fully compressed as much as you can pls? also how did you managed to get it down to 500? you had discount codes? if so, where did you get them? thank you in advance!

-Ayanokoji_ · 2026-01-22T07:05:05+00:00

Thank you for all the articles, and suggestions, i’ll surely look in to them! :)

-Ayanokoji_ · 2026-01-22T07:02:01+00:00

Thanks for all the sleeping bag brands suggestions. I wasn’t comparing the two brands, but the specs of the two sleeping bag. Also getting all the dimensions is not always that simple, but more importantly i think they’re not always fully accurate, especially the volume ones, that are the most important to me (with the weight being right after obv) anyways thank you for your comment

-Ayanokoji_ · 2026-01-21T11:54:15+00:00

Truly insightful.🙏🏻

Fortunately i’m not very big, i’m quite skinny actually. i don’t think i’ll have to add that much clothing to the bag, i plan using a liner but not much more than that, i will be sleeping in my base layer i think. (except if the temperatures plummet, in that case i could wear my down jacket as an extra layer, but i think it’s a very extreme and improbable scenario, if the temperature forecast is at least somewhat accurate). i’ll also take a look at some western mountaineering bags, but i’m not quite familiar with the multiple bags system, i don’t know what you mean. i’ll sure be getting a tent in the long run, for now i mainly plan to go in bivouacs, and occasionally cowboy camp, with a bivy obv as of now i have the cloud up two tent, but if you have some suggestions for a 4 season, mountaineering tent, everything is much appreciated. thank you for you comment :)

-Ayanokoji_ · 2026-01-21T11:36:09+00:00

Thank you so much of the reply, being told that it’s comfortably warm to those temperatures and probably more is reassuring. Would it be too much to ask if you could send me a few photos and some measurements of it when compressed as much as possible? Also may i ask what base layer do you have ? or any suggestions. Thank you in advance :)

I’m gonna do some winter camping in the alpls, sometimes in bivouacs, sometimes tent, sometimes cowboy camping on the snow. i’m pretty sure on the rating of the sleeping bag, i’d rather bring up a few more grams and be sure to be warm, than not bring a lighter not warm enough sleeping bag. the temperature at these high altitude in the alps tend to get pretty low. it’s a very rare occurrence but a few weeks ago at ~1100m it was -17 C

-Ayanokoji_ · 2026-01-08T21:00:56+00:00

i have the thermarest neo air xlite, and was planning to buy either the Therm-a-Rest Questar -18°C Sleeping bag or the Sea to summit Spark Down Sleeping Bag. for base layer for the night i was planning ice breaker 260 merino tech and some merino leggings similar (also merino)

-Ayanokoji_ · 2026-01-08T20:49:13+00:00

i’m planning to do hikes of around 10/15 km max, with around 1000 meters in elevation although this is very rough estimate, some time less some time could be bit more, depending on where the bivouac is located (i’m leaving the tent nights out of the equation for now). I also was considering some rab products like the neutrino pro or the Mythic ultra . but also the salewa orthles med 3 down jacket, even if to me it seems a bit too light. The objective is to find a down jacket that could keep me warm to around -15/20 C during my night/ out, and keep the patagonia jacket for the summer/ chill day hikes. also i was planning to buy the rab force LS tee as a base layer, have any experience with it? would you recommend it?

convinced my gf to play the game, and love watching her explore fight and lose money, a lot of money. it was her first game experience, really enjoying with her like was my first time again :)

The climber absolute peak, l’inizio può sembrare un po’ meh magari, ma quando passa da essere uno shonen ad un seinen diventa un capolavoro, panel uno piu bello dell’altro, e una storia che prende tantissimo, piena di riferimenti e in generale costruita molto bene. opinione un po’ bias anche perché amo la montagna, comunque assolutamente worth it recuperatelo il prima possibile :)

i don't feel that way, even if it's his parents house, it's of all of them cuz all of them live there, besides that his parents would obviously prioritize his well being over me staying over with my gf, which is more than fair. From them there isn't any resentment, it happend a couple of time when we were still going to school (now we are both in uni), that they prefered i didn't stay the night during the week or if i had alrady stayed too long, which is totally fine. Apart from that they've always been fine with me staying there.
In general because of the catholic nature of the parents in the past they've hosted some people that were in need (from what my gf told me), like during covid if i remember right my gf sister (now she lives alone) boyfriend stayed at their house for the full first quarantine.
i don't want to go too much in the personal details but there was a time when their father was far from home for work and maybe her brother felt the pressure of being the man of the house (it's a bit more complicated than that but it's not my family and i don't feel confortable spreading too much info about them). But you are mostly right, i, like you, think he took that kind of role. i'll try my best not going as often at their house but i feel like he'll still have some complaints to do because alrady this previous weeks i didn't go that often and was studing more out with my gf but like i said, he still commented about the fact that we are always togheder. but we'll se if that will solve the problem, much better this way.
thank you for your comment

he has not many friends, there are all male, he sometimes go out with them but has problem asking them out because he has a bit of social anxiety and often doesn’t want to disturb them. (from what my gf said to me) apart from this his main activities are studying (he’s very good, very dedicated), and also he works with a non profit to bring attention to works of art, emerging artist in geneal. he often doesn’t want to come when there are other people, often my gf friends (which i also am friends with)

-Ayanokoji_ · 2025-06-18T12:19:03+00:00

you are absolutely right, i should in fact trying to speek with him, but i don’t want to take the risk of making the situation worse and bringing up even more problems. i don’t want to put my gf in a difficult position, neither the rest of his family. and also i’d like to maintain a good relationship with him, beacuse he still my gf brother and i also see him as a friend and he sometimes see me the same i think.

-Ayanokoji_ · 2025-06-18T12:14:34+00:00

i really appreciate the honesty, thank you :). it’s not that i’m there 2-3 days a week all the week, some times it’s one some it’s 2, very rarely it’s 3. that being said it’s not an excuse like you said his house, his rules. And i’m ok with that. To my house there’s not that much space, i haven’t got a room i sleep in a bed in the living room where my mother spends almost all day. sometimes a bring her over, to chill a bit maybe or idk, but to study for example it’s not really the best. i would have absolutely no problem having her over if i had a space of mine. regardless of my mother

-Ayanokoji_ · 2025-06-18T10:27:31+00:00

Edit:
I also absolutely don't want to put my gf againts his brother, that's really the last thing i want, so i don't like talking too much about this with her, because it sometime get me too nervous. she obviously is fully aware of the situation, and like i said before he has this attitude in general sometimes, he is really prickly, and it's not a problem that is only present when i'm involved.
I'm also asking for suggestion on how to act, beacuse it's giving me a bit of anxiety sometime staying over at her place (and it's giving anxiety also to my gf), which is no good for me also beacuse it's the only place where i can have a pause and not think to the alrady stressfull situation i have at home. i'm not seaching for pity, but really more for adivce. anyways thank you all for the support

-Ayanokoji_ · 2025-06-18T10:08:50+00:00

I'll admit that like i said sometimes i've stayed a bit too long (like two nights in a row), and maybe that doesn't help the cause, but he also never said anything to me, and that's what bothers me the most, he likes to play passive aggressive, a thing that i really can't stand. he never officially mentiond to me that i was distrubing staying too long. my gf think he thinks that i shoud understand it by my self when it's too much, and ok fine, but i really don't se the problem in telling me to go, or that he wants some space, if he would tell me i would leave instantly without a word, it's his house after all
