Offered in a -5º and a -20º version, the BTU sleeping bags from Sierra Designs are built for maximum comfort in the most extreme winter conditions.

Warm, luxurious and waterproof, the Drizone Down Booties from Sierra Designs are just the ticket for cold, tired winter feet. Slip into these straight from your ski boots or spend a chilly Saturday lounging around the house. The Drizone waterproof / breathable membrane keep feet dry on trips to the wood pile or on wet ski hut floors. Supremely light and compressible, there's no reason to leave these at home.
