Overview
A backpacker stretching a sleeping bag system gets a mummy-cut down bag with a full-length coil zipper and no foot box. The zipper opens the bag out flat like a tapered blanket, and both sections have adjustable draw closures.
Its flexibility is the reason to carry it: sleeping bag, blanket for car camping, quilt over a hammock, or extra layer over another bag. The limitation is warmth on its own, since the rating is for mild three season use.
Who it's for
Lightweight campers and hammock sleepers who want to open the bag up flat suit this design. Winter campers who need warmth on their own should choose a bag with a lower rating and a foot box.
Pros and cons
- Very light for a down bag
- Opens fully to use as a blanket
- Works over a hammock
- Can layer as an overbag
- No foot box
- Fill power not listed
- Rated for mild conditions only
Performance notes
Down loft traps warm air, and the sewn-through, box-stitched design saves weight where stitch lines pinch the fill. Opened flat, the bag drapes like a blanket; zipped over a hammock, it insulates on all sides. As an overbag it adds warmth over another mummy bag.
