Practical warmth for three seasons
The Pyro 500 down sleeping bag from Wechsel is clearly designed for trips from spring through to autumn. With a comfort temperature of around 3°C, it covers exactly the range in which many nights are spent outdoors. The high-quality duck down with a fill power of over 750 cuin ensures reliable insulation without adding unnecessary bulk. This is not a sleeping bag for extreme winter adventures, but a very reliable companion for hut-to-hut tours, trekking and bikepacking, where weight and warmth need to be in a reasonable balance.
Lightweight, compact and practical in a backpack
Weighing around 860 grams in size M, the Pyro 500 is one of the lightest down sleeping bags in its class. It is the compact pack size in particular that makes it so practical: when packed in a compression sack, it fits easily into a backpack without taking up space that could be used for other gear. The outer fabric, made from recycled ripstop nylon, is durable enough for regular outings, yet remains soft and makes hardly any noise. Especially if you are on the move a lot, you will quickly realise that unnecessary extras have been deliberately left out here.
Well-thought-out details for peaceful nights
With the Pyro 500, Wechsel focuses on details that really make a difference in everyday life. The easily adjustable hood and the insulated zip cover noticeably reduce cold spots. The AntiSnag zip prevents fabric from getting caught, which is invaluable, especially at night. PFC-free materials and RDS-certified down are a real bonus, without you having to compromise on functionality or durability.
The advantages at a glance:
- Balanced thermal performance for typical three-season tours
- Lightweight and compact, making it ideal for space-saving travel
- Practical details such as hood and AntiSnag zip for added comfort
- Sustainable materials with no noticeable drawbacks in use
