Hi again all,
About an hour ago I got to look at the Nanok -10 that was delivered this week while I was away. First thing I noticed on taking the bag out of the stuff sack was that it was rolled up and from the looks of it has been for quite a while. I tried the normal shaking to try and get it to loft up but there is almost no loft. I would say a depth of about 1cm is all there is in the way of insulation. So I just wondered if I could ask:
1) Of those people with this bag, what sort of depth do you get the insulation to loft to? and;
2) Is there any clever way to get back a synthetic bags loft if it has been lost by being stored in a stuff sack? (Did read somewhere about putting in a tumble dryer with tennis balls. Anyone tried this?)
Other than this the bag is great, not even as large packed or heavy as I was expecting. But if its no going to be warm, err.....
Any advice greatly received.
Cheers,
Mike.
