Marmot EcoPro 30 Sleeping Bag: 30Degree Synthetic - Kids'


Product Details

Pack the Marmot Eco Pro 30F Synthetic Sleeping Bag and take the kids summer backpacking in the mountains. A trapezoidal foot box gives more foot room without adding more material, keeping the weight down for your little hiker. Wave shingle construction eliminates cold spots and prevents warm air from escaping through stitch zones. When they need to get up for the bathroom in the middle of the night, a heavy draft tube repels biting zippers, and a grippy drawcord minimizes midnight fumbling. Your kids head will stay warm in Marmots Nautilus hood, a 3D hood that wraps around the noggin and reduces heat loss.

Price : $ 138.95

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!
