Cold Weather Sleeping Bag

It's a very nice and comfy sleeping bag. Lot's of space but it's not for cold weather. I bought this because I have been homeless for the past few years and this is going to be my third winter sleeping out in Washington's Winter. At an external temp. of 45°F, the steam coming from my body goes straight through the bag and soaks it after maybe 30 minutes. Then my clothes started to get really damp and I got too cold to sleep. It's only going to get colder from here on out and now I know that it's not rated for 0°F weather. Maybe use this for a like a summer camping sleeping bag but definitely not for winter or fall weather camping.

I purchased two of these; one for me at 6'2" 270#, and my son 6'4" 220#. We both really like this bag for it's length and width. My son likes the flannel lining, but I would have preferred a nylon lining. Having said that, I would buy them both again.

I used this sleeping bag a few times in single digit temps, once in an unheated tent.STUFF SACK: The bag does not stuff small, which is not a big deal for me as winter camping requires a lot of gear regardless. Tightest I could get it, the dimensions are probably 14"-16" in diameter, and 18" long. The nylon straps are pretty smooth, which means it doesn't really keep tension if you grab it by a strap. Not the best, but useable if you don't mind the size.SIZE: This is definitely a Big and Tall. I absolutely misjudged the size of this bag, and now kind of wish I bought the normal size. For the record, I'm not a small guy. I'm 6' 250lbs, and this bag is wide enough that I can fit another person next to me, albeit snugly. This did cause some issues with warmth, because I did not fill out the bag enough. My workaround was to slide to one side and fold part of the bag underneath me, which worked fine.LINER: The liner is very comfortable flannel. I know lots of people don't like flannel because of moisture-trapping and slow-drying, but for one or two nights, I had no trouble. There is a draft tube at chest level which seems to do a good job of keeping cold air out. Another draft tube under the zipper as well. One of the coolest features on this bag is a small pocket near the zipper. It's big enough for my cell phone or glasses, but I used it for a disposable hand warmer, which did wonderful things.EXTERIOR: The nylon exterior seems well-sewn, the insulation is trapped in smaller battens, which keeps it from shifting around and causing cold spots. I slept on a mat on the ground, and the bag had no tears or other issues. The zipper has a plastic cover, I'm assuming to prevent snagging, and it works pretty well. I did not have to remove any material from the zipper while zipping or unzipping.HOOD: This was my only gripe on an otherwise well-performing sleeping bag. The hood WILL NOT snug down to my face all the way. It's simply too big. I feel that if they tapered it just a little, there would have been zero issues. My workaround was to wear my trapper hat and fleece to bed, which kept me warm and comfy.PERFORMANCE: My first night was in an unheated tent at 8º. I had a sleeping mat underneath me. I wore fleece pants, wool socks, poly long underwear, and my columbia zip up fleece sweater. I also wore my trapper hat, due to the aforementioned hood issue. I put a hot hands packet in the footwell, and another one in the pocket near the zipper. The only time I was cold was when I had to use the little boy's room in the middle of the night. It took a few minutes to get my bag warmed up again, and I got right back to sleep.OVERALL: I would absolutely recommend this bag to a larger guy for winter camping, as long as you don't expect it to go below 0. If I expected the weather to go below zero, I would probably need my parka and coveralls. The good thing about that is it's big enough for a second bag if you need -40 performance but don't have $800 to drop on a sleeping bag!

Love this bag it didn't strangle my dad like the mummy bag dose when he trys them. He sleeps in a semi truck sometimes no heat. It kept him warm below zero temps

this bag is a beast!! super cozy , took it on an overnight in 4-degree weather, didn't really realize that until waking up and pulling the bag down and watching my breath freeze, it is definitely good for 0-degree comfort,(with a sleep pad),one thing to point out though is this is not a trekking bag , if you are looking for lightweight this is not your bag..lolwhen I say its a beast it weighs in at 7 lbs and is not very quick to return to the bag, but for Overlanding, or base camping, I strongly recommend it, I am 5'9 255 lbs and I could pull it all the way over my head and roll around in it without any problem

The media could not be loaded.  * Ultra soft inside and super lightweight sleeping bag for camping.* Outer material is all polyester and that's waterproof.* Inside of this sleeping bag is microfleece which is super soft and comfortable.* warm and cozy.* Long zipper to open the bag and convert it to a sitting blanket if required.* I am 5'9" and very comfortable for me.* Width of this bag is also good to move if you cannot sleep still all night.

This sleeping bag has exceeded my expectations at every turn. I live in a very cold state and I must say, it keeps you warm. It isn't a stand alone sleeping bag when it comes to the single digits, however it isn't supposed to be either. The velour interior lining is so posh and comfortable. I was comfortably warm in my hammock in 14 degree weather. You can get more out of the sleeping bag if you pair it with an underquilt and warm clothing, but seriously...this sleeping bag is the most amazing thing ever. It's fairly cheap in price, rolls up nicely and is fairly light weight considering. I do not regret my purchase at all.

These sleeping bags are huge! I could fit me, my wife and a dog or two inside.I bought two LONDTREN Large 0 Degree Sleeping Bags to keep in our trucks for emergencies.They're made well. I haven't camped with them, but they seem very warm.The fiber fill doesn't compress as well as down. After I unpacked the bags and fluffed them up, they almost didn't fit into the stuff bags. The stuff bags are also huge, like a 5-gallon water bottle.If you have room to keep them, these sleeping bags a nice.I recommend this bag.

This bag is very soft and warm and a few friends are looking into purchasing for themselves. Just recently I used the sleeping bag in negative 30 degrees and was very comfortable. I would recommend it to anyone who hunts, camps or has a cottage in the boonies.
