This first post is just a pre-review/ first impressions. I'm heading to the mtns this weekend and will post up picts and final comments on my return.
On Thursday evening (3/3) I contacted Marty via his website to check stock and lead time for one of his King Size 3 season top quilts.
His response was prompt and said he could ship Monday (3/7) First Score A+
I paypaled thru the website order forms which was very easy to navigate. Second score A+
On Monday I received "your order has shipped". Third score A+

Last comment until I get back from the mtns.
I have always slept in down SB usually the semi rec type.
I have never liked mummy bags they make me feel like I'm
in a straight jacket. So basically, I like room to move around.
That said,
I am 5'9" 185lbs IMO this king size TQ fits me perfectly.
I would not want it any shorter or narrower.
I'll be back, Monday or Tuesday with picts and final comments...
