FAQs

What is the difference between comfort and extreme temperature ratings?

The comfort temperature (7°C - 11°C) is the lowest temperature at which the bag is designed for comfortable sleep. The extreme temperature (-6°C) is a survival rating only for a standard adult woman in a huddled position and should not be relied upon for general use.

Can I use this sleeping bag in winter?

This sleeping bag is rated for Season 2/3, meaning it is suitable for mildly chilly to cold temperatures. It is not recommended for deep winter conditions where temperatures regularly drop significantly below freezing.

How do I wash the sleeping bag?

It is best to hand wash the sleeping bag in cool water with a mild detergent. Avoid bleach. Ensure it is thoroughly rinsed and air-dried completely before storing.

What are the packed dimensions?

The packed dimensions for this sleeping bag are approximately 14cm x 35cm.

Is the mummy shape design good for ventilation?

The mummy shape is designed for warmth by reducing dead air space. However, the two-way zip allows you to open vents for increased airflow if needed.

How heavy is the sleeping bag?

The sleeping bag weighs approximately 1kg, making it relatively lightweight for carrying on trips.

Can I store it compressed?

It is recommended to store the sleeping bag loosely in its stuff sack or a larger breathable bag. Long-term compression can damage the insulation and reduce its loft and warmth.

Troubleshooting

Zipper is stiff or snagging

Gently pull the fabric away from the zipper teeth. Apply a small amount of wax or silicone lubricant to the zipper track if the issue persists.

Sleeping bag feels damp

Ensure the sleeping bag is fully dried before storage. If damp from use, air it out thoroughly outdoors or in a dry, ventilated space.

Reduced loft or warmth

Over time, insulation can compress. Follow the care instructions for cleaning and drying to help restore loft. Avoid prolonged storage in a compressed state.

Pros and Cons

Pros

  • Versatile season rating suitable for a range of temperatures.
  • Mummy shape enhances warmth and comfort.
  • Convenient inner pocket for valuables.
  • Two-way zip allows for adjustable ventilation.
  • Lightweight for easier transport.

Cons

  • Extreme temperature rating is for survival only, not comfort.
  • May not be warm enough for very cold winter conditions.
  • Personal preference for temperature can vary significantly.

Setup, Compatibility & Care

Setup: Unpack the sleeping bag and allow it to loft for a few minutes before use. Ensure the zip is fully open before entering. Secure any valuables in the inner pocket.

Compatibility: This sleeping bag is designed for use with standard camping mats. It is most effective when paired with appropriate sleeping gear for the expected temperatures.

Care:

  1. Cleaning: Spot clean minor dirt with a damp cloth. For deeper cleaning, hand wash in cool water with a mild detergent. Do not bleach.
  2. Drying: Gently squeeze out excess water. Do not wring. Air dry completely in a well-ventilated area, away from direct sunlight or heat. Ensure it is thoroughly dry before storing to prevent mold and mildew.
  3. Storage: Store loosely in its stuff sack or a larger breathable bag. Avoid long-term compression storage, as this can damage the insulation.
