Therm-a-Rest Vesper 32F Ultralite Quilt vs Enlightened Equipment Enigma 20
Both are 20°F down quilts for backpackers who want to cut weight and sleep without a mummy bag's confinement. The Vesper 32F is lighter and uses higher-fill 900 down, and owners consistently call it warm for its weight and roomy to move in. The Enigma 20 carries more down (15.5 oz of 850-fill) and comes in more sizes, including wide and long-wide, which suits cold sleepers and bigger frames. Pick the Vesper for the lowest packed weight and a pad-strapped system; pick the Enigma for more down, more size options and a sewn footbox.
- Choose the Therm-a-Rest Vesper 32F if you count grams, want 900-fill down and a quilt that straps to your pad, and you sleep on a standard-width pad.
- Choose the Enlightened Equipment Enigma 20 if you sleep cold, need a wide or long-wide size, or want a sewn-closed footbox and more down for the rating.
