VIDEO: Travel sock test

**HangingKayaker** · 10-30-2012, 12:37

There wasn't a lot of info yet on the Warbonnet Travel Sock so I made a video to show it off. Hooked it up to my BB and I was pretty impressed with the results.

Thanks Rooster!

Glad I could help.

Nice video.

I've been curious about the WB sock since he introduced it.

Thanks for the video - I'd been curious about this sock as well. And nice touch showing the temp in F for us southerners - nice touch

Great review HK! Can't wait to get a spindrift for the RR, hope to warm things up a bit. It's minus -19 here this morning.

Cheers

Another curious Warbonnet fan here. Great to see it in action! And wow, some early winter (compared to us) for you out in Edmonton!

Thanks HK, I just received my Travel Sock in a 1.9 Multicam yesterday and hung it in the house last night. It looks like yours is black or is that just how it looks in the vid? I left the light on in the room and still went right to sleep because it dimmed the light so much. AHHHHH.
Did I miss it but what weight is the fabric on yours? I'm wondering now what a cotton canvas for pulking would be like at the temps you get up there? And if it were in Winter-Camo wouldn't that be awesome!

I went with the olive-brown, only because it was considerably lighter according to the specs, 9.3 ozs. I haven't weighed it to be sure.

OK, Brandon's olive-brown is a 1.7 oz. fabric for the Traveler hammock so I will guess that is the fabric weight of that color sock as well. Thanks

Thanks HK; been curious myself. I slept out using the 2QZQ under quilt protector for the first time a few days ago and noticed a different even with that.
Am making a sock for my Lite Owl soon,,hopefully it will work on the BB as well.
