The Summit Backpacking Blanket takes a simple, no-frills approach to backcountry insulation. Whether you're backpacking, hammock camping, attending an outdoor event, or building a layered sleep system, the Summit provides lightweight, versatile insulation that can be configured to match your specific needs.
Unlike a traditional top quilt, the open blanket design offers greater flexibility while still allowing several options to improve warmth and reduce drafts.
Features
- Customizable length and width
- Choice of Argon 67, Argon 90, or Ion shell fabrics
- Climashield® Apex synthetic insulation
- Optional attachment loops, collars, and footbox snaps
Summit Backpacking Blanket Options Guide
For detailed information about fabrics, insulation temperature ratings, dimensions, attachment loops, collars, and footbox configurations, see the Summit Backpacking Blanket Options Guide (opens in a new tab).
Sizing and Fit
Choose your blanket dimensions based on your height, desired coverage, and intended use. Longer blankets provide more head-to-toe coverage, while wider blankets offer additional room for wrapping around your body.
| Dimension | Available Sizes |
|---|---|
| Length | 66"–84" |
| Width | 42"–58" |
Any fabric combination containing Argon 90 has a maximum finished width of approximately 57″. Combinations of Argon 67 and/or Ion without Argon 90 can be made at 58″ finished width.
Choosing Your Configuration
The Summit can remain a simple open blanket or be configured with additional features for sleeping use.
| Option | Purpose |
|---|---|
| Attachment Loops | Choose no loops for a simple blanket, corner loops for basic attachment points, or the extended loop set for additional securing options. |
| Collars | A cinch collar gathers the blanket edge to reduce drafts. A draft collar adds warmth along the opening, though harder to cinch with the extra insulation. |
| Footbox Snaps | When added to the foot-end collar, allow the lower 25" of the blanket to be fastened together, creating a more enclosed footbox configuration. |
If you primarily want an open blanket, the basic configuration may be sufficient. For sleeping use, consider the attachment and draft-control options that best suit your setup.

Summit Backpacking Blanket
impeccable workmanship and the fabric color is amazing. got a 20° and used it at 27° this past weekend and was incredibly warm the whole time - thank you so much!
Fantastic quality. Incredible attention to construction detail. Built better than things that cost much more. Shipping is fast. Jared was/is a pleasure to deal with!
I purchased a custom blanket in 2023. The whole process was simple and my questions were answered quickly pre-order. The 2.5 oz insulation has been perfect in the summer for sleeping in my hammock, in temps around the 60-50 range. It's also worked out well as a blanket in the tent for my dog in cooler temps. He loves it.
First time buying from Jared, and he provided fantastic customer service. He answered all my questions promptly. I bought the quilt with 3.6oz of insulation and it has performed well in conditions above 40 degrees
