Epic bag. But! Longer zippers could be nice.

I’m being a bit bit picky here. This bag is PHENOMENAL. We spent a night at 11,000 ft @ 25 degrees and didn’t even bother with the mummy hoods. I slept head out of the bag. The bottom of the bag is not insulated but I wouldn’t say that’s a negative, it saves a ton of weight and keeps the loft where you want it, above you. This thing is soooo fluffy, I use the hood as a pillow and just bunch it up. I want to test it @ ~10 degrees but haven’t had the opportunity yet. We are using the Nemo sleeping pads and they are a bit too wide to double up. We might cut them down, but I think we’ll just get a double air pad instead and put the sleeping bag on top. This thing compresses down impressively, and I love that they give you a big canvas bag to store it without compressing it too much. Again, this thing is Lofty. We have never been so warm in a bag. Now for the only con I can think of… The zipper doesn’t zip as much as we would like, it make getting in and out of the bags a bit difficult at times. We used this in a tensile tent and it can be cumbersome having to slide out. On the ground, I imagine it would be a bit better. I would still rather slither out of warmth than easily get into something with less heat retention. Life is about trade offs. All in all, a fantastic bag. I don’t regret my purchase at all.

Wasnt mentioned the temp it was good for

I didnt realize it had no base layer bottom.very Very pricey for what i got. Also thought it was for colder temps. And paid huge exchange rates and custom fees.

Soooooo warm

My wife and I just got this bag before a Rainier attempt (and successful summit!) and were a little concerned that the bag might not be warm enough. Temps were in the 30s F at high camp and I was roasty in the bag, slept most of the night with it unzipped. We used Thermarest Xtherm pads underneath tethered together with Zpacks pad straps (2 straps is enough for the reg MAX pad width size), which I'm sure helped when we were camping on the snow for warmth but I still couldn't believe how warm the bag was. It's a great quality bag and I really think we'll get a lot of use out of it. We also used a size medium sea to summit compression sack to carry the bag in whilst on the mountain, found it best to compress the air out of the down prior to attempting to stuff it into the sack. The only thing I would change is to have the zippers about a foot longer on each side. I know this would add weight, but having that extra foot of zipper length would make getting in and out and venting quite a bit easier. I would have certainly paid a little more to have a longer zipper as an option.

Great option for ski mountaineering and alpine climbing

My partner and I bought this last year as an option to save weight and space when climbing or skiing. We love the bag and have used it a ton. Build is high quality, and the design is awesome. This allows us to cut our pack sizes down significantly and share body heat. We have yet to take it to higher peaks but plan on doing so. We pair the regular sized bag with the Exped SynMat HL Winter Duo M in the winter and it's been good down to about 0F so far. May try pairing it with the SynMat HL Duo in the summer to cool things down some and save weight/ space. I should note we did 3oz of overfill as we hope to have it as an option in colder climates. Thanks Feathered Friends for the awesome piece of kit!
