Shakedown Cruise spotted some great down quilted hiking pants that we tried to find at various outfitters. Does anyone know about a brand name or where to locate them? They are like a sleeping bag fabric but quilted… and have a top to match.

Sounds like army liner pants. Cheap and light. The “matching top” comment further makes me believe it is the army liner jacket. They do run large, so a men’s small probably fits most women.
Some info:
Liner jacket: tinyurl.com/2dfgpk
Liner Pants: snipurl.com/1vhle
If you don’t mind a bit of sewing, you can make a Montbell Thermwrap clone for less than $20 with the above liner jacket. A men’s large comes in at 12oz! Considering a Montbell Thermawrap is $150 and weights 10oz, the cheap way is nice for those on a budget on who need something warm, light and cheap!
