Woodcutter Posted September 19, 2012 Share Posted September 19, 2012 I've got a Vireo I'm thinking about letting go of as I rarely use it. It's got 2 oz of overfill, it's green with a red liner (looks like an inside-out apple). It's probably only done 10 or 15 nights tops  I also have the helios that goes with it if you want the whole kaboodle.  pm me and we can thrash out a price.  Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Fromage Posted September 19, 2012 Share Posted September 19, 2012 vireo, wide series  Have you been in a Vireo? While the shoulder girth is designed to accommodate a parka, the hip and foot girths are the narrowest of any bag FF makes. If you haven't tried one out yet, it's a good idea to climb inside one. The narrow lower half of the bag paired with no zipper drives some people nuts. Other people don't mind, or are willing to accept the snug fit for the weight savings.

zeroforhire Posted September 25, 2012 Share Posted September 25, 2012 as someone who has owned and used the vireo, Brooks range elephants foot, and TNF offering... I have moved on to a quilt. Â check out the offerings from Enlightened Equipment. The revelation X series is a fantastic value. Get it wide to layer underneath and you are all set.
