User Review: EMS Men's Velocity 35

Rating: rated 4 of 5 stars
Design: mummy
Fill: primaloft sport
Temperature Rating: 35F
Weight: 1lb 8oz
Price Paid: don't remember

Have had this bag for two seasons and spent more than 80 nights in it. Temperatures ranging from 18 to 65. Most recently have used it from Sept 5 to Oct 22 hiking from Mt Katahdin, Maine, to Mt Greylock, Mass.

Very lightweight and compact, also very good water resistance. Below 43 degrees I will usually wear all my clothes to sleep, and below 36 also a down sweater. Using this combination I have been able to sleep well down to 32. Below that sleep is a little fitful. The hood cinches quite tightly to a small blowhole. The bag doesn't have very much loft, but is good for its intended temperature range.

About me: 5'8" 25-year-old male long distance hiker, very little body fat. Hope this helps.
