Mountain Equipment Size Guide

Using size charts

The charts below give measurements of your body that the garments of each size are designed to fit. The sizing of the garments makes allowance for whether they are close fitting or not and what they are designed to be worn with.

This guide has been taken directly from the Mountain Equipment website and should be used as a guide only.  We will not accept liability for any garments purchased according to this size guide that do not fit the way you want.

2) Measure your waist at the narrowest point above the pelvis keeping the tape horizontal.
3) (For women) With your feet shoulder width apart, measure your hips at the fullest point while keeping the tape horizontal.

This sleeping bag is lightweight and compact, making it suitable for use during the early spring and late autumn months at higher altitudes or in northern latitudes.
  • Ideal for: Backpacking & Trekking
  • Weight: 950g/2 lbs 1.5ozs
  • Good Night's Sleep Temperature: -8°C/18°F

Featuring 620g of 700-fill power DOWN CODEX-approved duck down and a high-performance, 100% recycled Helium 20D fabric, the Helium 600 is remarkably warm, lightweight, and easily packable. Its durability and versatility make it a great choice for cool temperatures at high altitudes or in colder regions.

Slant-baffle construction through the body maximises warmth, improves packability and prevents down migration, keeping you warm night after night and preventing cold spots. At the foot of the bag, a four-baffle system focuses essential warmth around your feet, while in the hood, a five-baffle system optimises comfort and keeps the down precisely where it needs to be.

Inside the bag, a 100% recycled Supersoft 20D lining fabric with PFAS-free DWR offers breathability and durability for comfortable nights and a long lifespan, while a full-length Gemini™ entry zip baffle practically eliminates heat loss in this vulnerable area and is stiffened so it won’t catch in the zip. The low-profile magnetic Lode Lock™ closure and collar drawcords are practical and easy to use in the dark.

Designed with a technical yet comfortable Alpine 2.0 fit, Helium bags optimise thermal performance while minimising weight. With a Good Night’s Sleep Temperature of -10°C (14°F), the Helium 600 offers reliable warmth in cooler environments or in early spring or autumn at higher altitudes.
