    Best Dual Purpose Quilt

    Hey Guys-

    Being on a tight budget I think we all sometimes appreciate dual use gear. I was looking at quilts that double as UQ's. I currently have a Wilderness Logics XXL TQ I use when hanging or on the ground.

    Are any of them ideal or suitable? I'm shopping for a down TQ that I can use when hiking with my girlfriend because together we go to ground. It would be awesome if I could use the quilt dual purpose as my new UQ when solo hanging. She is very petite, 5' and 105-ish so the quilt doesnt need to be nearly as large as mine.

    Since she doesn't hike all the time a compromise would save me a good bit of coin and justify that new downy goodness.

    Thanks Guys,
    Josh

    Check out Jacks-R-Better. They have exactly what you're looking for, I have the Hudson River and mostly use it as an UQ but it's also a TQ.

    I have the Jacks-R-Better Shenandoah, and as far as I'm concerned it works perfectly as either a top or under quilt. Great stuff!
