Nice bag! I initially purchased a Kelty Thru-Hiker Zero but took it back when I found a great deal on this bag. I shaved a pound and got a higher-caliber bag, to boot. While I tend to sleep warm, I used this bag in the single digits without a problem. Love the dri-clime. Similar Products Used: None |

Great bag for the buck. I bought the large because i like to snake down into my bag when its cold, and it also gives me extra room to put clothes and water. Temperature rating is on the money. I had it down to 3 degrees F wearing some expedition weight underwear and had to open the foot vent. Synthetic fill comes in handy when your moron tent partner leaves the door open and it rains... Customer Service sent back some gloves, had them back in 3 weeks...great service Similar Products Used: i'm a loyal marmot user from everything from alpinist parka and bibs, to gloves to backpacks... |

It's a good all around bag for this part of the country especially if you don't mind sleeping in your skivies come summertime. Keeps me warm in the winter too. The linning is really comfy, but beware, if you get stickers and thorn in the lining, your bare legs will feel them for a while. The regular size is nice for me, but I'm a small guy. The price is good and the fill material (polarguard 3d) leaves little to be desired. In a good compression sack, you can get it down to just about double volley ball size. An all around great bag.

Overall a decent bag. The DryClime lining is nice and cozy. Bag stuffs down to a nice compact size. Temp rating might be a bit optimistic but I haven't had it down below 20 degrees yet so take that with a grain of salt. Zippers snag a bit but I have that problem with just about everything.
