Light on weight, heavy on warmth
The Lightwave brand originated from the belief that truly exceptional and high performing outdoor kit could remain ultra-lightweight. If the Firelight lightweight sleeping bag is anything to go by, they’ve absolutely nailed it. Filled with 100% ethically recovered Polish white goose down, the Firelight 250 weighs only 500 g and is designed for colder temperatures down to 5℃.

When New Zealander Carol McDermott first began designing outdoor gear, his main concern was creating lightweight, high-performing kit that would give him an edge in the mountains - you know, the kind of gear without bells and whistles that serious climbers and trekkers crave. So when he founded Lightwave, McDermott didn’t change a thing - and that’s why we love it.
