About to buy our first TQ and UQ sets. Need some advise as to material choice.
Down vs Synthetics?
Here are some of my consideration issues.
Louisiana. High humidity is normal.
Camping by water is typical.
Doesn't have to be raining to have dampness invade.
Dew points are useless data points, as heavy dew is normal.
Quick drying is extremely useful.
Weight is a non issue. Vehicle or floated for carry.
Compressibility is a plus for canoe packing.
Going for 0 rating. Have had low teens this winter, and currently have several inches of sleet on the ground from yesterday and have 4-6 inches of snow forecasted for tomorrow.
Humidity currently at 85%. And Summer humidity can be brutal.
Lastly, cold sleeper due to bad circulation in one leg due to an old injury from being hit by a large stingray.
So, what would your recommendations be?
Synthetic or Down?
Any and all opinions appreciated. Thanks
