Marmot Eco Pro 30 Sleeping Bag: 30 Degree Synthetic


Product Details

The Marmot Eco Pro 30 Sleeping Bag uses recycled materials to create a durable, water-resistant shell and effective insulation to keep you dry and warm in cold, wet weather. The shells and lining come from recycled plastic bottles. The EcoPro insulation consists of 80% post-consumer material transformed into a hollow-core continuous filament thats not only thermally efficient, but lightweight and highly compressible. Marmot designed this three-season bag with wave shingle construction, which uses overlapping shingles of insulation for maximum warmth even when wet. The 3D Nautilus hood wraps around your head and traps body heat, and the draft tube seals out cold air leaks. Stash a snack or alarm clock in the Eco Pro Bags pocket and burrow down into that recycled goodness.

Price : $ 158.95

Lightweight Sleeping Bags Checklist

Sure It's Warm Enough? Lightweight bags are meant for use in weather between 30-50 degrees. But, remember, it's always prudent to add on at least 10 degrees to the bags rating. Thus, a bag rated to 40 degrees might only keep you warm in 50 degree weather.
Down or Synthetic? Each have their advantages. Down is less bulky and weighs a few ounces less. Synthetic costs less (usually) and is easier to dry - you can just toss it in the dryer.
Don't Forget the Sleeping Pad! A sleeping bag is useless without a sleeping pad. So, if you don't already have a sleeping pad, get one. For lightweight sleeping bags (thus used in warm weather), you don't need a super thick or winter-style one.
Ideal Uses for a Lightweight Bag. Where you know...for sure...that the temperature will stay at least 10-15 degrees above the sleeping bags rating. And, where every ounce and cubic inch of space is at a premium. Lightweight bags are often used by climbers and bike campers/travelers. For backpacking in the mountains, a lightweight bag is NOT recommended!
