Woke up thinking about the Pea Pod this morning and its cost. Specifically wondering if the major cost of a pea pod is in the sheer amount of down that is in it--surely because the design complexity is nothing like the Snugfit.
I was wondering of the cost thinking why not a Son of Pod because a lot of us Pea Pod users agree that it is collectively warmer than the sum of its individual parts....and coupling this with the belief that many of us sleeping in our camp clothes which is to say our camp clothing weight is part of our sleep system.
So why not a more affordable pod that is geared toward 3 seasons? The implication of the Pea Pod is deep winter use-at least for me.
There was a time when the Pea Pod was a much lighter sewn through model...I wouldn't want that back on the market necessarily but a Pod with the benefits of the larger siblings (PeaPod and Polar Pod), read extreme draft protection; but geared toward three season use. Thoughts?
I also wondered if Professor Hammock or Shug-two of our sports most knowledgeable participants, have or use pods in any variant.
