OK, so the sloooow boat from China arrived with one of my budget UQ's. I decided to go with the OneTigris "winter" UQ. Right off the bat I was pretty impressed. It came in a nice compression sack made from 1.1 olive green rip-stop, that was uncompressed and fairly thick. Taking it out I noticed its outer shell is a 20d dwr rip-stop nylon in dark olive green and the inner is a softer 10d nylon in dark gray. It measures 96" long × 23" deep in the middle. As far as suspension goes, it has a small length of shock cord on each end that goes through the tab on each side and then to your hammock's suspension. It isn't shaped like a standard synthetic or down UQ, but is comprised of 2 pieces sewn together along the bottom. I don't care much for the large logo on the side, but that can be removed fairly easily I'd imagine. As far as thickness and type of insulation go, its made from their SEE™ insulation technology that is a polyester type batting from what I can tell and is fairly thick at about 2.5" -3" and weighs 320g/m2. OneTigris claims a temp rating between 10° - 20° F. Just by looking at the thickness of the quilt, I'd venture to say that its pretty well spot on give or take. Obviously many factors come into play there, but I think the rating they give is pretty much accurate. I'll hang it this afternoon and do a video review. But for now here are a few pics....
