Product Information
Full details
The Kelty Wayback 20 Sleeping Bag is designed for car campers and outdoor enthusiasts who prioritize home-like comfort over ultralight weight. It offers a spacious, oversized fit and an innovative built-in blanket system that allows you to transition seamlessly from a fully enclosed bag to a bed-like setup. While its synthetic insulation and plush flannel liner provide excellent warmth and comfort, its size and weight make it less suitable for long-distance backpacking trips.

FAQs
Can I zip two Kelty Wayback bags together?
The Wayback 20 is designed primarily as a standalone bag. While it features dual sliders, it is not explicitly designed to be mated with other bags.
Is this bag waterproof?
The shell is made from a water-resistant ripstop nylon, but it is not fully waterproof. It will protect against light dew or tent condensation.
What is the recommended storage method?
For long-term storage, use a large, breathable cotton or mesh bag to allow the insulation to remain lofty.
How do I wash the sleeping bag?
Use a front-load commercial washer on a gentle, cool cycle with gentle soap. Tumble dry on the lowest heat setting with clean tennis balls to help fluff the insulation.
What is the temperature rating?
The bag is rated for 20°F / -7°C, which is considered a 'comfort' rating for most sleepers in standard base layers.
Troubleshooting
Zipper feels like it is catching on the fabric
Use the dual locking sliders to guide the zipper slowly. The anti-snag feature is most effective when pulled steadily; if it does snag, back the zipper up carefully and pull the fabric away from the zipper track.
The sleeping bag does not feel warm enough
Ensure you are using an insulated sleeping pad underneath the bag. Sleeping bags rely on your body heat to warm the air inside, but a pad is required to prevent heat loss to the cold ground.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
Setting up the bag is straightforward: simply remove it from the included stuff sack and allow the CirroLoft ECO insulation to loft for several minutes before use. To ensure longevity, always store the bag loose in a large mesh storage sack or hang it in a cool, dry closet; avoid keeping it compressed in the stuff sack for extended periods. When cleaning, use a front-loading washing machine on a gentle cycle with a mild, technical-fabric-safe detergent. Always air dry the bag completely to prevent mold or moisture buildup in the insulation.
