Dustin_B Posted February 14, 2003 Posted February 14, 2003 What do you think of this? $25 for a sleeping bag that weighs 1.5 lbs and rated to 30 degree. I seriously doubt this. cheap 30 degree bag Quote
erik Posted February 14, 2003 Posted February 14, 2003 buy it and let us know what are you looking for in something like that?? certainly not denali. but alot of time in the summer, i dont even take a bag, just my red coat and a tarp. so imagine this will suffice for that. Quote

I don't plan on buying it. I have a 30 degree down bag that weighs 1.5 lbs but I paid about 10 times as much as this one is going for. I wouldn't use either on Denali. A friend of mine was looking for a cheap, light bag so he brought it to my attention. If you are on a REALLY tight budget I wonder if it would really work. Quote
gregm Posted February 14, 2003 Posted February 14, 2003 i have one of these but have not actually used it yet. i don't think it would rate to a 30 degree bag. more like a 45. also, i found it somewhat narrow in the shoulders. it is extremely light and small though. Quote
David_Parker Posted February 18, 2003 Posted February 18, 2003 What's the return policy for that company. I'd have to try it on before buying for sure. Quote
Alpine_Tom Posted February 25, 2003 Posted February 25, 2003 That looks pretty cool. I need to get a lightweight sleeping bag for my five-year-old for this summer for mini-backpacking outings, and this looks like just the ticket. Quote
gapertimmy Posted February 25, 2003 Posted February 25, 2003 i think gi joes sells a similiar bag in the spring and summer. if you really desired to, you could get away with this bag in colder conditions as well. Quote
Dwayner Posted February 26, 2003 Posted February 26, 2003 It might be one of a kind.....maybe it's the one "pope" crapped on during his "Cirque Expedition". Quote

Well, I ordered it, emboldened by the "100% satisfaction guarantee" and it came, and... man is it thin! Envsion a couple of sheets of nylon with, I don't know, I few stray packing peanuts sewed in between. I don't think Peter would stay warm sleeping in it in the house! I can't imagine what they're thinking, calling it a 30degee bag. But it's light, and it's small -- it packs into a stuff bag the size of my down coat's. Quote
