What reviewers say

CleverHiker lists it as a good-value down bag in both its backpacking and camping guides, calling it the best crossover bag in the camping guide. Testers found it comfortable in shoulder seasons with a warm pad and liked the anti-snag zipper and included compression sack. They found it snug at the hips and heavier than premium ultralight bags, and note that down needs careful washing.

Good

  • Affordable for a 15°F down bag
  • Anti-snag zipper
  • Compression sack included

Not so good

  • Snug at the hips
  • Heavier than premium bags

Who it's for

Campers and backpackers who want a warm down bag without paying for top fill power. Wide sleepers may want a roomier shape.
