    Pan
    Apparently the Greylock 3 and 4 were made in a 59" version a few years ago.

    I would like the longer version if anyone has one they want to sell.

You might call Jack and ask if they have any demo quilts that length. I don't know your height, but I'll share an experience I've had. I have a 58" synthetic quilt. I'm around 5'9" and I've found the synthetic quilt at that 58" length ends around my feet which initially caused gaps. When I use the 58" quilt now, I shift it up to the top of my head instead of the shoulders and I don't get the gaps because the end of the quilt is on my calves. I'm able to have it at my shoulders and naturally at my calves with the 52" Greylock 3. May not work for you, but it works for me down to around 25F using a partially inflated sit pad inside the top quilt.
    I am 5'-10.75"

    I have been consuming reviews on the greylocks but it never occurred to me that there were 3 different sizes with rarely no mentions of the length in the reviews.

    • 52"
    • 56" (current)
    • 59"

    Folk,

    WTB is not the area to have a discussion about a product. Unless you are offering the OP a product please refrain from discussion. If you wish to talk about the Greylock please feel free to either PM each other or open a thread in the JRB area.

    Many of our members receive an email for each response in the Market Place which is the reason chatter is not permitted.

    Believe you are searching for a typo... Years ago they were 49; then a section was added, taking them to 56 inches in length...

    Also shorter folk with a pillow insulating under the head will find it works well as a full length to near full length depending on your height or rigging preferences.

    Still looking? If so you may want to bump it at least once every week. Items that are inactive are subject to being removed from the Market Place area, it allows members to know you are still interested and it will keep the moderators from "pinging" you! Bumps mean to respond in the post.

    Thanks for your help
