In reply to Opinions please, width of sleeping bag pad.... posted by hawk37 on April 27, 2008 at 6:47:58 am EDT

You also may find that the seam sealer deteriorates over time and becomes sticky which is NOT fun when your bag "bonds" to your pad.....

My main winter bag now is a very costly custom XPDII from Integral Designs that I had them make me five years ago. I seamsealed the Endurance shell with the waterbased sealant and while it is dry, it sticks to Evafoam just enough to be a minor concern. As long as this goop does not re-liquefie as happened on some of my older Early Winters bivies, it is fine, but, given the cost of this bag, I am a bit worried.

I have since gone to a Valandre Shocking Blue winter bag to cut weight and it is sufficient for almost all of my winter needs and has a microfiber shell, which works well enough for the winter camping I now do.
