    Pretty much all of the quilts I mentioned are made to order.
    And Enlightened Equipment are quite well know for overrating there bags by around 15f (they rate at or sometimes below lower comfort temp rather than upper comfort. And measure width before they add fill which narrows the quilt. That's fine if you know before ordering and I get that it makes specs look better but it does make me lean away from them a bit.
