FINDING COMFORT IN THE RIGHT SIZE SLEEPING BAG

FINDING COMFORT IN THE RIGHT SIZE SLEEPING BAG

When it comes to backcountry hunting, your gear can make or break your experience. Among the essential items in your pack, your sleeping bag stands out as a critical piece of equipment. It’s not just about warmth; it’s about comfort and ensuring you get a good night’s rest to fuel the next day’s journey. The right size and fit of your sleeping bag are paramount, and here’s why.

COMFORT IS KEY: As night falls, you eagerly slip into your sleeping bag, hoping for restful sleep. However, if your bag is too tight, it can restrict your movement, making it difficult to find a comfortable sleeping position. On the other hand, a bag that's too roomy might not retain your body heat effectively, leaving you cold and restless. A well-fitted sleeping bag provides just the right space for you to move without compromising warmth.

SOLACE 15 FEATURE // STRETCH ZONE BAFFLES: The Solace 15 was designed with an expansion section from the hips to the knees. It prevents you from having to purchase an oversized sleeping bag to find comfort and freedom from restriction.

TEMPERATURE REGULATION: A sleeping bag that fits properly ensures optimal temperature regulation. Most bags are designed to trap and retain heat efficiently, but if the bag is too large, there will be excess air space that your body needs to warm up, which can lead to heat loss. Conversely, if the bag is too small, it can compress the insulation, reducing its effectiveness and leading to cold spots. Finding the right size ensures that the insulation works as intended, keeping you warm and comfortable throughout the night.

SOLACE 15 FEATURE // ARMS FREE PORT:  The SOLACE 15 features our innovative Arms Free Port system that allows complete use of your arms outside the bag without sacrificing valuable built up heat around the body’s core and the patented self closing baffles eliminate drafts while sleeping on your back or your side.

WEIGHT AND PACKABILITY: For backcountry hunting, every ounce counts. A sleeping bag that fits you properly is often lighter and more compact than one that's oversized. This means you can save precious space in your pack and reduce the overall weight you’re carrying. The right size bag packs down smaller, making it easier to manage and carry, especially on long treks where every bit of weight savings can enhance your overall experience.

SOLACE 15 FEATURE // 850 FILL POWER DOWN: The 850 fill power down offers an exceptional warmth-to-weight ratio, providing maximum insulation with minimal bulk and weight.

In conclusion, the right size and fit of your sleeping bag are crucial for warmth, comfort, and packability. Remember, when you sleep better, you hunt better.
