Cecile lost their military contracts for NOT filling their bags with 80% down, as agreed upon. That's how Tennier ended up making all the military's bags, even to this day. Yes, they're cozy, but definitely not temp rated correctly. Seriously cool find though, there probably aren't many of these left.
