ALPS Mountaineering Adds Genesis Sleeping Bags to Sustainable Product Line

ALPS Mountaineering, manufacturer of performance gear for wilderness adventures, exploration, and family camping, continues to move forward with the company’s commitment to providing high-quality, high-performance outdoor products through low-impact manufacturing with the introduction of the all-new Genesis line of sleeping bags.

The Genesis 0° and Genesis +30° mummy bags enter the ALPS Mountaineering lineup as part of the ALPS R3 initiative. R3 stands for Reduce, Reuse, Recycle, and that is precisely what the Genesis series bags deliver.

Each bag is constructed of a 100-percent recycled polyester ripstop outer fabric and a recycled polyester inner fabric. Furthermore, the high-loft insulation is comprised of recycled TechLoft Micro insulation. The combination of recycled outer/inner shell and insulation results in bags that will keep you warm and withstand years of backcountry adventures while making a positive impact on the wild country we seek to preserve.

Available in regular (80L x 32W inches) and long (86L x 34W inches) sizes, the Genesis-series bags come with a two-way, full-length separating zipper that, unlike most mummy bags, continues across the foot box for maximum ventilation and versatility. A shorter off-side two-way zipper provides full upper torso ventilation and allows the user to sit comfortably upright.

Both bags come with compression stuff sacks to minimize carry bulk. They are offered in the spruce/iceberg green color scheme representative of all ALPS Mountaineering’s R3 sustainable material products. The MSRP for the Genesis 0° is $129.99, and for the Genesis +30°, it is $99.99.
