Questions & Answers

Question:
I am 6', which size do you recommend?
Answer:
Even though you would technically fit in the Large, most people like to size up if they are in between sizes with sleeping bags to have extra room. Because of this, I would recomend XL

Product Customer Reviews
Loading reviews…
The sleeping bag worked well on a 2-week motorcycle trip, I managed to stuff it in the trunks, so it was a success, but it would be nice if the compression bag was of better quality
for having chosen it in XL for more space and mobility, it is super cozy, comfortable, fits easily into its compression bag. It keeps you warm especially with thermal clothing
Nothing to complain about, just positive!
Easy to use but too much storage space
Very happy solid buy
Excellent sleeping bag. Great features for the price.
Nothing to complain about for an extra sleeping bag. Too bad about the very strong smell, I had to wash the item twice for the smell to fade.
Not hot enough. The humidity gets in and makes you shiver...
Lightweight efficiency
The CP value is good, and the appearance and comfort are both satisfactory. It would be better if there were zippers on the feet for easy stretching and ventilation.
good product, a little narrow at the legs
Perfect. RAS
Very pleasant and comfortable bed. Body temperature is perfectly preserved even on cool and humid nights.
Does the job in the mountains, stay warm
Comfortable and warm. Small in size when packed, not airy - not suitable for summer.

What is the temperature rating?
All our sleeping bags display the temperature ratings, tested by an independent laboratory (AITEX), in accordance with the European standard NF ISO 23537 - 1:2022. The comfort temperature rating is the lower limit at which the user in relaxed posture is generally in thermal equilibrium and feels neither too cold nor too hot (for a standard woman in normal conditions of use). Choose your sleeping bag according to this criterion.
What is the temperature rating (lower limit at which you feel comfortable)?
The comfort limit temperature is the temperature limit at which a person curled up in the sleeping bag is in general thermal equilibrium, neither too cold nor too hot (determined for a man in normal conditions of use).We recommend using an insulation mattress to optimise your thermal comfort.
An important clarification concerning the iso 23537-1 standard
In the context of this standard, the measurement protocol of a sleeping bag’s thermal protection uses a mattress with thermal resistance equal to an R-value of 4.8.This means that by using a less insulating mattress, the thermal performance of your sleeping bag will be lower.We therefore recommend you use an insulating mattress to optimise your thermal comfort.
Some advice to consider before you get into your bag
Dress simply (1 layer of clothing is enough). Warm-up your extremities: hats, gloves, socks, hand/feet warmers, rubdowns, etc. A flask of hot water can be used as a hot water bottle (as long as there's no chance of it accidentally opening!) Contract your muscles (70% of the energy consumed is converted into heat) but do it without moving as this could create a draught. Use a bag liner to optimise warmth and avoid washing your sleeping bag too frequently.
