Gear Review: Snug Pak Extreme Sleeping Bag
Product description: Three season sleeping bag. Our robust Sleeper range of bags are an ideal introduction to Snugpak's high performance sleeping bags with many similar design features. Filled with a 'siliconised hollowfibre'. These synthetic fibers are structured to trap warm air between tiny cavities in the fiber. When unpacked the hollow fibers decompress and spread back to gain maximum re-loft. Rip stop nylon outer with supersoft as the inner lining, a silky smooth nylon fabric. All sleepers come with a compression stuff sack, Snugfit hood, zip baffle,hanging dry tabs and anti-snag two-way zip. Weight: 74 oz Length: 86" Chest: 60" Pack Size: 12" x 12" Comfort temperature 20 F Low temperature 11 F.
This is an excellent bag that keeps me so warm in 30 degree weather I have unzip and open up. The bag is very light weight. It compresses down much further than the MSS and in one bag keeps you much warmer than the 3 in the MSS. The bag on Amazon is $72-58 with free shipping if you're willing to wait 5-8 days. The MSS I've found are normally $125-150. The only thing missing is the Goretex over wrap but that can be remedied with a tarp, poncho or a tent. Or you can buy the over wrap of $53 on Amazon.
I'm 5'11" at 215 and I fit length wise but I'd like a little more space in the shoulders simply because I like space to move around in. I find this to be the problem in all sleeping bags.
