The Helium 450 is a true 3–4 season ultralight sleeping bag built for hikers who want maximum versatility with minimum weight. At just 850 g, it delivers exceptional warmth‑to‑weight performance using 850+ loft RDS muscovy down, a highly efficient baffle system, and dual‑zip temperature regulation. Ideal for cool‑weather bushwalking, coastal tracks, and sub‑alpine missions down to –7 °C for warm sleepers.
A 10×10 D, 520 TC ultralight nylon shell (26 g/m²) with a hot‑rolled‑cire finish provides durability and prevents down leakage. The DWR loft‑treated down maintains higher loft for longer in damp conditions, ensuring reliable warmth across varied climates.
The Helium 450 is compact, compressible, and designed for hikers who need serious performance without carrying excess grams.
