You can't. This is especially made for the store MEC.Hi,
Found my perfect travel bag I hope :
MEC INTREPID TRAVELLER 15-22C SLEEPING BAG - UNISEX
Only can order this from Canada and then is 50e shipping price. Is this also here in Europe? Looks perfect : )Thanks!
Mountain Equipment is NOT the same as Mountain Equipment Coop.There are some stores in the Netherlands who have Mountain Equipment sleeping bags in stock. They might know how to get hold of the model you like. You can find the stores listed here when you enter your home town.
Albertinho, where do you see that Bever sells MEC products?Or you look at the webside ! Given by the link of @Purky. Bever Sport should supply stuff of MEC so give them a call or send an email to them. Bever Sport is allways somewhere around where you live. Here in Rotterdam even are two Bever stores.
Bom caminho

On the site is searchbox where the shops are. I can't give the guaranty that they sell MEC but they are mentionned on this site so I should say "give it a try". Miet gsvhoten is altijd mis
I filled in Rotterdam and they pointed out to Bever Sport which likely has a big assortment of backpacks. We bought ours there although no MEC but Osprey.And many other things for our 3 caminhos and the Pieterpad.

Not MEC. I hope the OP,didn't get her hopes too high when she read the false alarms from those who do not know what MEC is and posted it sells in Europe. When in doubt, perhaps we should all do a bit of fact checking before giving advice that is not.http://www.mountain-equipment.co.uk/stockists/
It could be that as stated earlier above in this thread that this website is a different to your Canadian one.
Quite confusing two companies in the same field with almost the same name by the way
We bought these (and they are on sale right now) and they're fabulously small and lightweight. Shipping anything to Europe from Canada is quite expensive, unfortunately. Their website does say "This item ships for free"... to ? Perhaps you could challenge that? https://www.mec.ca/en/product/5034-985/Intrepid-Traveller-15-22C-Sleeping-BagHi,

REI is American outdoor equipment co-op similar to MEC in Canada. Here is a link to the REI page for warm-weather sleeping bags. While you probably won't buy from REI because of the same shipping cost issue, you can look at the REI offerings from various manufacturers and then search for that particular sleeping bag at outdoor stores in your area. http://tinyurl.com/1-SeasonSleepinBagHi,

Why do you need a technical bag when sleeping in Albergues. My AUD20 Aldi sleeping 9Mummy) bag is about to do it's third Camino with no problems.Hi,

This is a bag intended for tropical and indoor use.Why do you need a technical bag when sleeping in Albergues. My AUD20 Aldi sleeping 9Mummy) bag is about to do it's third Camino with no problems.
Still seems like overkill. If one is not planning frequent Caminos then a cheap bag will suffice. The added advantage is that you can take a liner to increase the warmth of the cheap bag and then you can soak the liner with pemethrin to deter the bed bugs. Storing the liner in it's own ultrasil (dry) bag seems to maintain the potency of the pemethrin.This is a bag intended for tropical and indoor use.
It is on sale for $59 (Canadian) which doesn't seem bad to me. It is lightweight and rectangular, which can better accommodate a liner than a mummy bag can. Pretty good value.then a cheap bag will suffice.
For women in their late 40s/early 50s, this is an excellent bag. Sometimes we sleep very hot and other times, not. This bag is a light sleeping bag on one side and a liner on the other. Two bags in one. PerfectWhy do you need a technical bag when sleeping in Albergues. My AUD20 Aldi sleeping 9Mummy) bag is about to do it's third Camino with no problems.
