what's the deal with all the big companies using lower quality sown these days? my old marmot bag is 775, now they use 600 and apparently do does sierra designs.

Sign o' the times? Tough economy nowadays.

Everyone's cutting costs.

**Just Jeff** · 09-07-2009, 20:33

I think they just have different models...some aimed at the 600fp price point and others at the 800+ price point. SAC had an 800fp SD bag on there a couple days ago but I don't remember which model.

**sir_n0thing** · 09-07-2009, 21:13

Yes, I believe SD carries multiple lines of bags to hit different price points.

I noticed earlier in the summer there were allot more winter bags on S&C. Seems like they're going to start selling off the remaining summer gear now.
I missed on out some nice deals on winter bags and I regret not buying them now that winter is approaching!
