A durable, lightweight sleeping bag is required for a comfortable night. Right at 4 pounds, this large mummy bag is made of high-quality material: Shell: 40D Water-Resistant Ripstop, Lining: Brushed Poly-Flannel makes the sleeping bag ultra soft and rip resistent, so it can keep you warm even in extreme weather and prevent you from any dampness. They feature a full-length anti-snag main zipper and added ventilation block. The anatomically shaped footbox minimizes heat buildup and gives you plenty of room to wiggle your toes, flex your feet, and find a comfy sleeping position. The top portion is built for maximum loft and warmth, the bottom portion retains a blanket-like feel for all-night comfort. 

We use our zero sleeping bags a lot on backpacking overnighters. The one universal lesson we've learned is that spending time in the outdoors after a bad night's sleep is MISERABLE. Being comfortable, warm and getting a good night's sleep is PARAMOUNT to keeping it together during the days. If you have the budget, this is one area we highly recommend investing in a great high-end sleeping bag.

Tips and Recommendations

• Trial Run - Take it camping so you know how to set it up and stow it away after. 
• Store It Dry - If you use it, put it away clean and dry so it doesn't mildew.
• Put It Back - If you use it, put it back. Emergency gear has a tendency to walk off when raided for common use.
• Comfort Is Key - When you set it up you're goal is to make a great night's sleep. Find a place on the ground where you can put your pad and be the most comfortable.
