Damage Detail & Condition Report

⚠️ BUYER NOTICE: This bag is structurally compromised and is sold AS-IS. Please review the specific damage descriptions before purchasing:

• Damage Point 1 (Side Rip): There is a sizeable rip along the side seam near the primary zipper track. This tear exposes a portion of the internal Travelsoft insulation and compromises the draft-seal performance in that zone until stitched closed or patched.
• Damage Point 2 (Foot Hole): A small puncture/hole is located near the footbox area of the bag, likely from contact with gear or a rough surface.
• Zippers & Hardware: The main zipper sliders, velcro tabs, and the integrated facial mosquito netting mechanism remain fully functional and undamaged.
• Cleanliness: The fabric is clean, free of heavy field mud or foul odors, and the anti-bacterial lining remains intact.

Key Features (Base Model Attributes)

• Built-In Mosquito Net: Features a fine mesh netting that can be zipped over the face opening to seal out mosquitoes, midges, and other biting insects, or rolled away out of sight when not required.
• Anti-Bacterial Treatment: The internal Paratex lining is treated to drastically reduce microbial activity, preventing the buildup of mold and odors during extended use in high-humidity tropical environments.
• Convertible Square Profile: Outfitted with a full-length side and bottom zipper, allowing the bag to be opened completely flat to serve as a camp quilt or lightweight truck blanket.

Benefits & Application for Buyers

• Excellent DIY Project: If you possess basic sewing skills, a heavy-duty needle, and some nylon repair tape (such as Tenacious Tape) or a donor patch, this is a highly cost-effective way to score a premium Snugpak bag at a fraction of retail cost.
• Donor Gear Material: An exceptional choice for DIY outdoor enthusiasts looking for authentic, high-quality Snugpak materials (like the MicroDiamond outer shell, Paratex anti-bacterial fabric, or the functional mosquito netting panel) for custom gear modifications or patch kits.
• Budget Camping Alternative: Once patched, this bag retains all its original thermal properties, making it a great, inexpensive option for warm-weather scouting, emergency vehicle kits, or backyard campouts.

Condition: Used in Damaged Condition, has large rip in side near the zipper, and has a small hole at the bottom, otherwise functional, good for repair, Overall Damaged Condition.
