Super lightweight, real down and packs down in a very small stuff sack the size of a Nalgene bottle. Bought both right and left zippers to mate them if needed. They are a close fitting mummy bag so mating them to sleep is not really very comfortable.

We used them at Glacier National Park and at Lake Chelan National Rec area this summer. It was in the 30's and 40's, but I did not get cold. They laundered well, too, and come with an extra cotton bag for long term storage.

Equipped with the comfort of the Super Spiral-Stretch System, you will experience a freedom of movement like never before at very affordable price points. SUPER SPIRAL-STRETCHTMSYSTEM (Pat. Pending) MontBell has adapted a classic tailor's trick by integrating a woven fabric "cut on the bias". By orienting the fabric's warp and weft threads at 45 degrees to most major seam lines the sleeping bag becomes more fluid or elastic in nature. Additionally, coiled or crimped fibers are used in the fabric weave to capitalize on their inherent stretch properties. To create an even more comfortable system we utilize an elastic stitch technique to create small "gathers" in the quilting. By combining this stretchy fabric, strategic seam orientation, and the elasticized gathers we offer unrivaled fit and comfort. These innovations allow the sleeping bag to stretch with you as you change positions throughout the night, drawing the insulation closer to your body and eliminating drafty dead spaces. Keep body heat inside your sleeping bag, where it belongs.SUPER SPIRAL-STRETCHTMSYSTEM (Pat.

If you're wondering why you'd choose down over synthetic for only moderately cool summer nights, it's because you're concerned with weight and packability. And, thanks to a unique, stretchy stitch system, the down-filled 40-degree MontBell Super Spiral Hugger #5 Sleeping Bag could be the most comfortable bag you've ever had the pleasure of sleeping in.
