Product Information
Full details
The Neel Blue Hooded Sleeping Bag is designed for outdoor enthusiasts, hikers, and festival-goers who need a reliable, insulated sleep solution for three-season conditions. Its primary benefit is the combination of a 420 GSM synthetic filling and a water-resistant shell, which ensures warmth and protection against light moisture. However, potential users should note that at 1.3kg, it may be slightly heavier than specialized ultralight backpacking gear, making it best suited for base camping or trekking trips where pack weight is manageable.

FAQs
What is the extreme temperature rating?
The sleeping bag has an extreme rating of -5C.
Is this machine washable?
It is recommended to spot clean as needed. If a full wash is required, use a large, front-loading commercial machine on a delicate cycle with minimal soap.
Does it come with a compression sack?
Yes, it includes a convenient carry bag that compresses the item to 40cm x 25cm.
Will this fit someone who is 6 feet tall?
Yes, with a length of 220cm, it is suitable for users up to 6 feet and beyond, depending on your preferred sleeping position.
Is the fabric waterproof?
The shell features a waterproof finish to repel moisture, though it should not be submerged in water.
Troubleshooting
Zipper snagging on the fabric
Hold the fabric taut away from the zipper teeth while pulling the slider gently to release the jam.
Sleeping bag feels flat or loses heat
The filling may be compressed. Shake the bag vigorously to redistribute the 420 GSM synthetic fibres and allow it to sit out for an hour before use.
Pros and Cons
Pros
- Durable, tear-resistant outer material
- Effective insulation for temperatures down to 5C
- Versatile two-way zipper for temperature control
- Lightweight and compact for its insulation class
- Integrated drawcord hood keeps head and neck warm
Cons
- Not suitable for extreme sub-zero alpine conditions
- Larger packed size compared to down-filled sleeping bags
- Synthetic fill is bulkier than premium down insulation
Setup, Compatibility & Care
To maximize the life of your sleeping bag, ensure you shake it out upon arrival to help the synthetic fibres regain their loft. When packing, avoid rolling it perfectly; instead, stuff it into the included carry bag to prevent the filling from developing permanent creases or "memory" lines.
- Cleaning: Spot clean minor stains with a damp cloth and mild detergent. Machine wash only when necessary, using a front-loading commercial washer on a gentle cycle.
- Storage: Store the bag uncompressed in a cool, dry place when not in use for extended periods.
- Compatibility: The bag is designed for standard camping pads and cots; for best performance in cold weather, ensure you have an insulated sleeping pad underneath to prevent conductive heat loss to the ground.
