The biggest issue I find is understanding whether the fp is American or European (though there is now a global standard iirc).

A bit late to answer that but actually, most brands use the international norm IDFB. Even Europeans ones.
The only brands that are still using EU norm I'm aware of are :
- Triple Zero
- Valandré
- Sir Joseph

Any brand using EU norm is more likely to advertise it as EU norm is stricter.

US standard ended in 1999. But some brands (even Europeans ones) are still using it for some reasons. Like Millet, Enlightened Equipment or Mountain Hardwear.

Here is how you can convert easily :

IDFB : 900 cuin
EU : 810 cuin (-10%)
old US : 945 cuin (+5%)

Hope this helps.

I've seen these mentioned a fair bit lately, some good reviews? I would be interested in hearing from somebody who has 'real life' experience with them though.

I see that UOG has started stocking Enlightened Equipment quilts.

What's this constriction thing they're talking about?
