It can also be used in the house for sleepovers or at summer camp. The 32-Degree Mummy Lightweight Down Sleeping Bag is designed with a shape that will keep as much heat in as possible to keep you warm and snug all night long. This sleeping bag uses a neck gasket to keep the heat in. An internal pocket gives you a place to put your phone, wallet or just about anything you want to store safely.
If you need a double sleeping bag on a regular basis. Most of the picks on our list are geared toward three-season use, but for campers who like to get out year-round, a cold-weather bag is essential. In this category, REI Co-op’s Frostbreak 5 stands out for its excellent warmth at a very reasonable price. Other functional additions include a well-insulated hood, draft tube, and differentiated drawcords (one round and one flat) that make it easy to adjust the aperture in the dark. Added up, the Frostbreak is an excellent value for casual winter adventurers.
For those who run cold or simply want to bring their bag into lower temperatures, adding a sleeping bag liner can help keep you cozy without breaking the bank. Liners are made of soft materials like fleece, wool, polyester, or silk and typically add around 5 to 15 degrees to the warmth rating of your bag. They also serve as a barrier between you and your bag’s interior, which can help boost lifespan (you can wash the liner after use rather than getting your bag dirty). Liners typically cost between $30 and $60, and a couple of our favorite options are Sea to Summit’s Thermolite Reactor for mummy bags and their Silk-Cotton Blend Liner for rectangular models. To be clear, liners are totally optional and not everyone needs one, but they do offer added warmth and comfort and help keep your bag in good shape.
Along with a healthy dose of 550-fill down, the bag offers cozy warmth and good compressibility. And considering the typical Ozark Trail Canopies price of a down bag, the Cosmic Down’s $165 MSRP really stands out. I bought the zero degree bag and nearly froze to death.
Mummy bags typically have a ¾-length side zip that requires some wriggling to get in and out of and can’t be opened up completely should you want to zip the sleeping bag together with another compatible bag. That’s why for camping, we prefer a bag that fully unzips. Not only is it easy to create a large and comfortable space for two if you zip it to another bag, but unzipping the bag on its own opens it up for use as a blanket.
For your family trip or solo adventure, in a tent or motor home, our experts are here to help you to enjoy the great outdoors and create new and exciting memories of a lifetime. What bothers me the most, (and the main reason I gave it 2 stars) is that the fabric is hidden and not obvious until you get it out of the package and unzip it all of the way. If they wanted to skimp on fabric, it should have been used on the outside and bottom of the bag! I was on a budget so I figured I would go with a less expensive bag. I got in the bag, tried to zip it and the zipper tore immediately.
Day one, night one…the zipper tore and cord in hood broke. Day 2 …it was closer to 6 degree and I froze…I had to hike into town, replace the bag. I could have gotten better quality from a teenager’s home ec project and lighter weight.
Step up your camping gear with the Ozark Trail 6-Piece Camping Combo. This camping combo includes two sleeping bags, two chairs, a portable travel table, and a 4-person instant tent. With instant frame technology, this tent can be set up in just a couple of minutes. The tent also features a removable rainfly and mesh windows for ventilation. The hanging gear loft and organizational pockets make storing small items easy.
Most traditional camping bags stick to synthetic fill for cost savings, but lofty down clusters offer a premium feel and warmth that polyester just can’t match. And as we’ve come to expect from Kelty, the Galactic is solidly built and priced pretty affordably at $170, which is around $30 less than REI’s similarly intentioned Hunkerdown above. This Ozark Trail Sleeping Bag comes in a sealed compression bag that makes it easy to take with you when you go when camping or hiking.
While most sleeping bags are designed to be most efficient when used independently, some of them are designed to be mated together to form a “double wide” sleeping bag – perfect for a cozy night of sleeping for two. The reason two sleeping bags paired together is less efficient is because there are more gaps, and more movement is possible, which allows warm air to be pushed out and colder air to enter the bag. Similar to The North Face’s One Bag above, Big Agnes’ Lost Ranger 3N1 uses an innovative layering system for adapting to shifting conditions.
