Overview

Not a bag for mild nights, the Lynx pairs goose down with a MicroLite XP polyester microfiber shell. It has a down-filled collar, V-Block side baffles for even fill, and a draft tube with stiffening tape to resist snags. This listing is the six foot, left zip size.

This build is meant for cold-weather skiing and camping, with a deep loft that holds warmth on cold nights. The listing carries conflicting weight figures, and the season label does not match the deep-cold rating in the seller copy.

Who it's for

Winter campers and ski tourers who sleep outside in real cold are the target. Warm-weather hikers should choose a lighter bag with a milder rating, because this one is built for deep cold.

Pros and cons

Pros
  • Deep-cold temperature rating
  • Draft tube with stiffening tape
  • V-Block side baffles for even fill
Cons
  • Weight figures conflict
  • Season label conflicts with rating
  • Left zip only

Performance notes

Warmth comes from the deep loft and from the collar and draft tube, which close the gaps where heat leaks out. V-Block side baffles keep the down spread evenly instead of shifting to one side during the night.
