The Mont Zodiac Series is a durable, reliable range of down sleeping bags designed for bushwalking, outdoor education programs and weekend getaways. Built with a 100% recycled nylon shell and slightly more generous dimensions, the Zodiac range is ideal for sleepers who prefer extra room without compromising warmth or performance.
The Zodiac 500 is the mid‑weight model in the series, offering dependable warmth for cool‑climate camping with a warm sleeper rating of –4°C to +2°C. Its versatility comes from the full‑length side and foot zips, which allow you to ventilate in warmer conditions, adjust down distribution between canopy and base, or open the bag completely to use as a quilt.
Designed as an accessible, high‑value option for travellers and bushwalkers, the Zodiac 500 includes thoughtful features such as a contoured hood, internal collar muff, large 3D draft tube, internal security pocket and durable construction using Hydrophobic Epic thread. It also comes with Mont’s Z‑Force Mechanical Advantage Compression Stuff Sack for easy packing and a large storage bag for long‑term care.
