Best praise vs top criticism for Western Mountaineering Alpinlite
“True. EE has the worst possible baffle design: super long U-shape that promotes down migration and cold spots, no differential cut, no edge tension control. Sure, their quilts will work, but they are expensive for what you get. I went from a 20F EE to a 20F WM Alpinlite and now I know that the quilt is not only a joke, but an insult.”
“Alpinlite is 25 but you better be wearing socks thermals beanie and puffy otherwise 🥶🥶🥶”
