Hey folks;,,I'm wondering which climasheild weight would be enough, the 2.5 oz or 5 oz. This will probably be for summer only, july, aug,,probably not dropping below 60 degrees at night.
Thankx

I have a summer TQ made from the 2.5oz climashield. I use it 50* and up...very light and compact! Good stuff!
I have another of the 3.7oz...35* to 50*
AC is right on the money, we do 2.5 or 3 ounce as summer weight, taking most folks into the low 50's to mid 40's depending on each persons comfort range. 5 and 6 ounce takes most folks into the low 30's and some as low as the mid 20's....again person to person varies some.
Paul how much is your owyhee summer quilt (regular)

yep i agree with the above posts as well.... 2.5oz 45-50F and 5oz around 30F
I made climashield quilts and 2.5oz will take you below 60.
