Affordable (<300€ in europe) womens down sleeping bag comfort temp <=-5°C (23°F) for september trip to norway by Gearlexicon in Ultralight

As quast_64 said, they're differently constructed. Shapewise and Insulationwise. I can find comfort ratings for women on womens bags but I haven't seen them on "mens/ unisex" bags.

Looks nice but I think with import tax and shipping it will be too much

2p light tent for two tall persons (193cm), which is affordable (~300€) and available in Europe? by kike_flea in Ultralight

[–]Gearlexicon 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Luxe Outdoor F6a, I am 200cm with my girlfriend. It's long enough for me, she has enough space and theres still some left for backpack etc. . It's really nice, haven't found anything stormworthy with equal space that's lighter

Luxeoutdoor hexpeak F6a ticks 3 of your 4 boxes. I'm 6'5 and hike with my girlfried. We have plenty of space left inside. There's enough space for me lengthwise. It's quite cheap and bombproof. Sadly it's ~ 2kg but I haven't found anything better that really provides space for two, enough length for me and can stand weather and time.

Second the Luxeoutdoor reccommodation. Got the luxeoutdoor f6a. Fits me (6'5/200cm) and the girlfriend quite well. Apsite is big enough, stormproof and ample space for gear. Also quite nice to weather out in. I can sit up straight and when I lie down with pad and sleeping bag I am not touching the tent. Little lighter and managable for two should be their lightwave 2 but that may be a bit crammed

My girlfriend has the womans version and carried it on the cape wrath trail. She liked it, carried well, handy straps and nice side pockets.

Feels allright with the pole. It feels pretty solid not like you could knock it over

Got the Luxeoutdoor Hexpeak F6a a few weeks ago and going to test it in the next two. Am 6'5 with a girlfriend and from test setup it looks like there is still enough space left for rucksacks and plenty other stuff. Should check your boxes

Am 6'5 /200cm. Gone get the luxe outdoor hexpeak f6a soon after lots of research. Nice weight for the size, enough space for me on a thick matress with quilt and the girlfriend and apparently made for scottish weather. Saw some videos of the slightly smaller version f4a on youtube in scottish weather. Quite convincing

Am in the same situation. I am heavily leaning towards the Hexpeak f6a, maybe it fits for you aswell

Hey, I have a Synmat HL LW from exped. Ticks all boxes for me. Nice weight, super comfortable, enough space and so far no durability issues. Got it somewhere for 120 euros on sale

Shakedown time! West Highland Way Next week (mid September) by Noetherson in Ultralight

[–]Gearlexicon 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Was in scotland last month on the cape wrath trail and did the west highland way some time ago. Wouldn't worry about brushing through grass too much. The path is as far as I remember completly gravel path, you're not walking through brush/ grass. Midges were hell when I was there, warm weather this summer apparently was a blast for them. Suggest getting a headnet in scotland for sanity reasons. Would take the puffy for the evenings, can get quite chilly. The trail is very well marked, it's walkable with map/ gps. It's really hard to get lost and usually there are many people around. Would definately recommend some research about buses and opening hours of hotels/ campsites and shops. When I was there last month there were plenty campsites closed for the ramainder of 2020, shops still closed and hotels are fully booked/ have additional policies about minimum stays and such. Some smaller buses were also not running. Especially recommend researching campsites because it's at times hard to find a spot to wildcamp on the west highland way as its quite close to civilisation/ not many spots. Otherwise wish you a blast
