A great sleeping bag for moderate weather camping trips, the Slumberjack Big Scout junior-sized, mummy-style sleeping bag fits sleepers up to a maximum height of 5 feet, 5 inches. It features Slumberloft HQ fill, which provides great warmth and loft at a great price, and a double-layer offset construction with a differential cut that allows insulation to loft fully. The flip-over hood allows you to turn the hood inside out, giving you the option for a flat hood or a fully-contoured hood, while the trapezoid foot box provides space in which the feet remain in a natural position for better comfort. Other features include an insulated draft tube with anti-snag zipper protection and easy-grab pull tabs.

Why a Mummy Bag?
Mummy-style sleeping bags take up less room and weigh the least. They're also smaller in size than rectangular bags, thus decreasing the amount of space around the body. The less space that needs to be warmed by body heat, the warmer the bag will be.

Sleep Well: Finding the Right Sleeping Bag
Sleeping bag technology has come a long way from the days of cowboy bedrolls. These days, there are a number of high-tech materials and designs available to keep you warm during the coldest outings. Here's a short list of things to keep in mind when you're shopping for a bag:

Buy for Cold
It's a safe bet that on at least one of your adventures, the nighttime temperature will drop unexpectedly. That's why it's smart to buy a bag that's rated for the lowest possible temperature you expect to face on your camping and backpacking trips. For summer trips, a bag rated at +35 degrees or higher will likely do the trick. If you like to camp in higher elevations in the summer, or if spring and fall outings are in your future, consider bags rated from +10 to +35. Winter adventurers should look for bags in the -10 to +10 range, while those on serious winter alpine climbs and expeditions will want a bag rated lower than -10.

Keep in mind that sleeping bag manufacturers' temperature ratings only estimate the minimum temperature at which the bag will provide warmth. Take these numbers with a grain of salt, as different folks generate different amounts of heat when they sleep. If you're the type who likes to pile on the covers even on warmer nights, go for a bag that's rated ten degrees colder. The opposite is true for "warm" sleepers--a 35-degree bag will probably work for you on a 25-degree night.

Goose or No Goose?
The most important component of any sleeping bag is its insulating material. Modern sleeping bags offer two choices: goose down or synthetic. While both materials have advantages and disadvantages, down bags are considered superior because of their phenomenal warmth-to-weight and warmth-to-bulk ratios. While providing great insulation, down is extremely compressible and light. There's a reason why geese can fly and stay warm through the winter! Down also boasts great long-term durability and will typically retain its insulating properties after years of use.

All of that said, there are many high-quality synthetic bags on the market and synthetic materials are getting better all the time. While a synthetic bag will weigh somewhat more than a down bag at an equivalent temperature rating, synthetic bags perform better when wet. (Yes, the Achilles heel of down is that it loses all insulating properties when wet.) If your trips take you to wet climates, you may want to consider a synthetic bag for this reason alone. Keep in mind, too, that many people are allergic to down--synthetic bags are non-allergenic. Finally, down is considerably more expensive than synthetic, which might tip the balance for adventurers on a budget.

Bags for All Shapes
Sleeping bags come in two basic shapes that reflect their intended use. Mummy-shaped bags offer the best warmth because they conform to the body's contours. This minimizes the amount of body heat the body must put out to maintain a constant temperature. Many mummy bags are offered in women-specific shapes and sizes, as well. Rectangular bags, while they do offer more room to toss and turn, are less thermally efficient because they contain more open air space. Also, they are typically heavier than mummy bags, and are generally not offered with down insulation, making them best suited for car camping or short backpacking trips.

Pad Yourself
No matter what kind of bag you choose, a sleeping pad is a required accessory. Not only do they provide much-needed comfort when sleeping on the ground, pads also offer crucial warmth for your backside, as the weight of your body compresses--and renders virtually useless--the sleeping bag insulation that lies beneath you.

Perfect for all adventurers who want to travel light--from kayakers and fast packers to motor and pedal cyclists--the ultralight Meridian sleeping bag has a carry weight of under 2.5 pounds. This mummy-style, warm weather bag is temperature rated to 50 degrees Fahrenheit, and it features a soft Merino wool liner. It has a ventilated trapezoid foot box that provides space in which the feet remain in a natural position for better comfort. Other features include anti-snag zipper protection, easy access drawcords, and easy-grab pull tabs. The bag is comfortable for campers 5 feet, 11 inches.

My son loved the frogs and it seemed like a perfect fit. I could see how the material may easily rip in the wash in the future and don't buy it for the pillow! It easily rolls up and velcros for easy storage and carrying. Overall, we like this product.
Customer Review: Nice Sleeping Bag
Very nice sleeping bag. Seems to be made well. The pillow is little but it's suppose to fit little heads. Someone had said theirs had come in a clear plastic bag, but mine came in a box...it did have the picture on it but it was a gift so it was wrapped up. My grandson did like it.

Customer Review: Slumberjack Sleeping Bags
Wonderful product! Very cute; great quality. This is something the kids can use for many, many years!!
Customer Review: Fantastic bag for a kid
This is the perfect sized bag for a child. I bought it for my 3.5 year old, and I think it will last until her tweens. Because it is a little smaller than a regular bag, you don't have to fold it before rolling it, which makes it MUCH easier to roll than an adult bag.

Customer Review: Winter Sleeping Bag is WARM & QUIET -Love it!
This sleeping bag is really great. It is far warmer than my other nylon bags, and comparable to a 6 inch thick down comforter. And I mean that in a good way. The cotton duck outer (like soft canvas) and comfy flannel inner is just awesome - and QUIET. I just love the quietness. All my older bags have been nylon which make a lot of rustling noises which bother me everytime I move (and anyone else trying to sleep nearby). This SlumberJack Big Timber long sleeping bag is so cushy soft you almost don't need an air mattress. But you'll sleep better if you do have one. I can highly recommend the ThermaRest Base Camp air mattress. It's really great, and last for dozens of years! Therm-a-Rest Base Camp (Large) The one thing to be aware of is that no air mattress does well if you leave it all blown up in a hot trailer. It will pOp! or at least get a slow leak. If I hadn't done that, I'd still be using the same ThermaRest I got in the 1980's and slept on sharp rocks & broken glass without a puncture nor leak. Tough! So deflate it some before you leave it for the day (or season) and you'll never have a problem. This sleeping bag has a BIG square foot end, so there is tons of unrestricted room for feet. Totally opposite of mummy bags. Zipper is good quality metal. I sometimes feel a slight draft near the zipper, but this bag is so warm that is ok - just slightly refreshing. This bag is wider than most, which is ok - I have plenty of room. But it might be a squeeze in a small tent. This is NOT a backpacking bag. It's too bulky & heavy to lug around all day. But it's perfect for car camping! It's possible to use this bag in the summer, but you will be opening it just to cool off about half the time. Get yourself another sleeping bag for summer. This is the most comfortable winter sleeping bag I have ever had, and I'm happy to recommend it now.

Sleep Well: Finding the Right Sleeping Bag
Sleeping bag technology has come a long way from the days of cowboy bedrolls. These days, there are a number of high-tech materials and designs available to keep you warm during the coldest outings. Here's a short list of things to keep in mind when you're shopping for a bag:

Buy for Cold
It's a safe bet that on at least one of your adventures, the nighttime temperature will drop unexpectedly. That's why it's smart to buy a bag that's rated for the lowest possible temperature you expect to face on your camping and backpacking trips. For summer trips, a bag rated at +35 degrees or higher will likely do the trick. If you like to camp in higher elevations in the summer, or if spring and fall outings are in your future, consider bags rated from +10 to +35. Winter adventurers should look for bags in the -10 to +10 range, while those on serious winter alpine climbs and expeditions will want a bag rated lower than -10.

Keep in mind that sleeping bag manufacturers' temperature ratings only estimate the minimum temperature at which the bag will provide warmth. Take these numbers with a grain of salt, as different folks generate different amounts of heat when they sleep. If you're the type who likes to pile on the covers even on warmer nights, go for a bag that's rated ten degrees colder. The opposite is true for "warm" sleepers--a 35-degree bag will probably work for you on a 25-degree night.

Goose or No Goose?
The most important component of any sleeping bag is its insulating material. Modern sleeping bags offer two choices: goose down or synthetic. While both materials have advantages and disadvantages, down bags are considered superior because of their phenomenal warmth-to-weight and warmth-to-bulk ratios. While providing great insulation, down is extremely compressible and light. There's a reason why geese can fly and stay warm through the winter! Down also boasts great long-term durability and will typically retain its insulating properties after years of use.

All of that said, there are many high-quality synthetic bags on the market and synthetic materials are getting better all the time. While a synthetic bag will weigh somewhat more than a down bag at an equivalent temperature rating, synthetic bags perform better when wet. (Yes, the Achilles heel of down is that it loses all insulating properties when wet.) If your trips take you to wet climates, you may want to consider a synthetic bag for this reason alone. Keep in mind, too, that many people are allergic to down--synthetic bags are non-allergenic. Finally, down is considerably more expensive than synthetic, which might tip the balance for adventurers on a budget.

Bags for All Shapes
Sleeping bags come in two basic shapes that reflect their intended use. Mummy-shaped bags offer the best warmth because they conform to the body's contours. This minimizes the amount of body heat the body must put out to maintain a constant temperature. Many mummy bags are offered in women-specific shapes and sizes, as well. Rectangular bags, while they do offer more room to toss and turn, are less thermally efficient because they contain more open air space. Also, they are typically heavier than mummy bags, and are generally not offered with down insulation, making them best suited for car camping or short backpacking trips.

Pad Yourself
No matter what kind of bag you choose, a sleeping pad is a required accessory. Not only do they provide much-needed comfort when sleeping on the ground, pads also offer crucial warmth for your backside, as the weight of your body compresses--and renders virtually useless--the sleeping bag insulation that lies beneath you.

Customer Review: Slumberjack Telluride
This was the first new and improved, highly compressible sleeping bags that I've purchased. Gone are the days for me to lug around a sleeping bag the size of a large carry-on. Although I now own and use the Big Agnes Encampment, I didn't have any issues with the Slumberjack Telluride when I did use it. It packs small with the included compression sack and is very roomy and warm at tempuratures above 35 as long as you use a good pad or cot below you and you are not a cold sleeper. The material is smooth and comfy and for me the zippers worked. Although I do admit that I rarely use them. I simply work my way into the bag as though putting on a pair of socks. Anyway, I do recommend this bag for those that don't camp that often, are on a budget, have the patience to not force the zippers or just want to have a good sleeping bag around without taking out a second mortgage.
Customer Review: You get what you pay for
I bought this bag for a 7 day bivouac hunt in the North Dakota Badlands. The average nightly temps were 40-50 F. The bag was warm during these windy and chilly nights. The bag compresses down reasonably small and is relatively light weight. On my second night of the hunt, I was zipping up the bag and the zipper broke right off of the bag. It didn't just come off, it literally broke. There was no way to fix this in the back country. I had my hunting buddy wrap some duct tape around me at night and then unwrap me like a giant tamalie every morning. He spent big $$$ for his bag and of course, had zero problems with it. Oh well, for the price and free shipping, this isn't too bad of a deal, just remember to bring plenty of duct tape with you.

Customer Review: Decent Bag
This bag is very comfortable and packs relatively small, but on the downside it is a bit heavy and the merino wool liner is sometimes itchy (particularly after a hike when dried sweat is on you). It is spacious on the inside for those who like to some wiggle room. But this also affects the overall warmth. I tried it out when the temperature got a to be about 25 degrees and the bag was pretty cold, but after putting on some shirts, tights, socks, sock cap.... it was toasty. So the rating is a bit off. But overall it is a well rounded bag for three season backpacking and will do the job.
Customer Review: Termperature rating is wrong
This sleeping bag looks great. It is light and comfortable as long as it does not get below 40F. I went camping with the Slumberjack Kepler 20F Regular Right Sleeping Bag and the temperature went a little below the freezing point on a couple of occasions. I had terrible nights both time. I took off my cloth, wore more cloth and there was nothing to do, I was cold. The temperature rating on the bag is wrong. The sleeping bag is at best a 40F. I ended returning the bag. Amazon's service was great.

Sleep Well: Finding the Right Sleeping Bag
Sleeping bag technology has come a long way from the days of cowboy bedrolls. These days, there are a number of high-tech materials and designs available to keep you warm during the coldest outings. Here's a short list of things to keep in mind when you're shopping for a bag:

Buy for Cold
It's a safe bet that on at least one of your adventures, the nighttime temperature will drop unexpectedly. That's why it's smart to buy a bag that's rated for the lowest possible temperature you expect to face on your camping and backpacking trips. For summer trips, a bag rated at +35 degrees or higher will likely do the trick. If you like to camp in higher elevations in the summer, or if spring and fall outings are in your future, consider bags rated from +10 to +35. Winter adventurers should look for bags in the -10 to +10 range, while those on serious winter alpine climbs and expeditions will want a bag rated lower than -10.

Keep in mind that sleeping bag manufacturers' temperature ratings only estimate the minimum temperature at which the bag will provide warmth. Take these numbers with a grain of salt, as different folks generate different amounts of heat when they sleep. If you're the type who likes to pile on the covers even on warmer nights, go for a bag that's rated ten degrees colder.

Customer Review: great buy for big guy
This product is well worth it. I go camping a lot. There's plenty of room which I love. I'm 6'2" 265lbs so if your big get this bag...I slept great and was nice and warm. Bigger than I expected.
Customer Review: Winter Sleeping Bag is WARM & QUIET -Love it!
This sleeping bag is really great. It is far warmer than my other nylon bags, and comparable to a 6 inch thick down comforter. And I mean that in a good way. The cotton duck outer (like soft canvas) and comfy flannel inner is just awesome - and QUIET. I just love the quietness. All my older bags have been nylon which make a lot of rustling noises which bother me everytime I move (and anyone else trying to sleep nearby). This SlumberJack Big Timber long sleeping bag is so cushy soft you almost don't need an air mattress. But you'll sleep better if you do have one. I can highly recommend the ThermaRest Base Camp air mattress. It's really great, and last for dozens of years! Therm-a-Rest Base Camp (Large) The one thing to be aware of is that no air mattress does well if you leave it all blown up in a hot trailer. It will pOp! or at least get a slow leak. If I hadn't done that, I'd still be using the same ThermaRest I got in the 1980's and slept on sharp rocks & broken glass without a puncture nor leak. Tough! So deflate it some before you leave it for the day (or season) and you'll never have a problem. This sleeping bag has a BIG square foot end, so there is tons of unrestricted room for feet. Totally opposite of mummy bags. Zipper is good quality metal. I sometimes feel a slight draft near the zipper, but this bag is so warm that is ok - just slightly refreshing. This bag is wider than most, which is ok - I have plenty of room. But it might be a squeeze in a small tent. This is NOT a backpacking bag. It's too bulky & heavy to lug around all day. But it's perfect for car camping! It's possible to use this bag in the summer, but you will be opening it just to cool off about half the time. Get yourself another sleeping bag for summer. This is the most comfortable winter sleeping bag I have ever had, and I'm happy to recommend it now. EDIT: I actually have the 0 degree bag. I still love it.

Customer Review: Slumberjack Ultimate 20F Long Sleeping Bag
We used this product last year on Isle Royale National Park, backpacking/canoing for a week. I had this bag, and several of the others in our group had Slumberjack 30F bags. These bags are made for backpacking, and are light. Twice during our stay the temperature dropped to around 36 degrees. I was comfortable throughout our stay, as were members of our group with 30F bags. A) These bags are made to be unpacked/uncompressed for storage, or prior to use, to keep the insulation material expanded. They are meant to be put in the compression sack for travel only. B) There is a breathable opening in the bottom of the bag, to aid in circulation/humidity reduction, if the temperature is warm. Remember to keep this closed in colder temperatures. C) As far as not being able to compress the bag back into the compression sack provided with the bag, none of us have ever had a problem packing this sleeping bag back into the bag that it came in. D) We(my wife and I)are traveling back to Isle Royale in 2008, and we just purchased a new Ultimate 20F sleeping bag for my wife, to replace her old Coleman. The trade off is the weight of the bag, and the size when compressed. E) For reference, we both are using ThermaRest ProLite 4 sleeping pads, which normally adds some R-Value for sleeping. Do your research. If you are camping in a tent, but traveling by car/truck/camper, where you have a lot of storage room, get a bag that is large, comfortable, warm, and easy to use. The weight/size of the bag will not be an issue. If you are backpacking, and have to carry everything you need, pack out everything you brought in, including any trash, carry all your food, carry water filters, first aid, etc, etc, every ounce of weight will start to count. That is what separates this bag, or more specifically, this type of bag. I am not saying this is the best bag on the market, but for the money we wanted to spend, we consider it a great deal. The temperature rating is also a moving target, depending on your age, physical condition, gender, metabolic rate, diet, and myriads of conditions. In the end, you will need to be your own subject matter expert on how much insulation/covering you will need down to 20 degrees. Both my wife and myself tested out this bag, with the pad, prior to heading for the Island, to make sure we were comfortable enough with the weight of the bag, its insulating value, and the ease of use. We gave this bag a rating of 4.5 stars. The only reason we did not give it 5 stars was that the zipper did not go down further. We have not experienced any mechanical problems with this bag. Good luck
Customer Review: Unaccurate temp rating (and potentially dangerous)
I've owned this bag for two years and have camped with it both in the Cascades and Appalachians for a total of 25 nights. When initially evaluating the bag, I was excited to find a 20-degree bag in the 3-lb range, at an attractive pricepoint. My first night on Frosty Mountain in 34F temp made me regret that decision - I got about 1 hour of sleep after shivering the remainder of the evening. This was also in conjunction with a closed cell pad. I've tried sleeping with clothes on, with clothes off (clothes off seems to allow the bag to "cook" you more). On later trips, I started using REI's thermarest knockoff with an R-value of 3, rather than closed-cell foam. Still, no improvement in comfort. Basically, this is an okay bag down to 45F. Between 45F-40F, you'll need to definitely enclose the hood tightly around your face to minimize leakage (and you'll still be cold). I would not use this below 40F - EVER! You'll have a bad sleep and not enjoy the next day's hike. One cool feature about the bag is the pull strings on the hood - there are two cords - one that cinches the top of the hood, and a different one for the bottom. The manufacturer wisely made each cord of different diameters to make it easier in the dark to "know" which one you need to cinch to enclose your hood. When I purchased this bag, I was still new to backpacking. Since then, I've found far superior products at comparable pricepoints. If you are evaluating this bag, you are also probably new to backpacking and are trying to minimize the cost while you gear up. My advice is to spend money on a good bag - you won't regret it. As for the SlumberJack....mine is getting replaced with a nice Western Mountaineering Kodiak. I will only use the Slumberjack as a backup bag for guests during summer months.

Customer Review: Not bad for the price
I would not rate this at -20 F. I slept in 33'F right after I received it, and I got cold feet and cold in the sleeping bag. I did not have socks on, and I was wearing a t-shirt only; however, I would expected to stay warmer at the temperature rating. Additionally, the stuff bag is much too small for the sleeping bag. I have tried rolling this bag as tight as I can get it, but it doesn't fit in the stuff bag.
Customer Review: Slumberjack Latitude-20F
My son was planning a winter camping trip to Yellowstone and needed a sleeping bag to keep warm at night. I purchased this sleeping bag because of the ad to stay warm at -20F and the price. I was very impressed with the sleeping bag when it arrived, and my son said that he stayed nice and warm and toasty.

Sleep Well: Finding the Right Sleeping Bag
Sleeping bag technology has come a long way from the days of cowboy bedrolls. These days, there are a number of high-tech materials and designs available to keep you warm during the coldest outings. Here's a short list of things to keep in mind when you're shopping for a bag:

Buy for Cold
It's a safe bet that on at least one of your adventures, the nighttime temperature will drop unexpectedly. That's why it's smart to buy a bag that's rated for the lowest possible temperature you expect to face on your camping and backpacking trips. For summer trips, a bag rated at +35 degrees or higher will likely do the trick. If you like to camp in higher elevations in the summer, or if spring and fall outings are in your future, consider bags rated from +10 to +35. Winter adventurers should look for bags in the -10 to +10 range, while those on serious winter alpine climbs and expeditions will want a bag rated lower than -10.

Keep in mind that sleeping bag manufacturers' temperature ratings only estimate the minimum temperature at which the bag will provide warmth. Take these numbers with a grain of salt, as different folks generate different amounts of heat when they sleep. If you're the type who likes to pile on the covers even on warmer nights, go for a bag that's rated ten degrees colder. The opposite is true for "warm" sleepers--a 35-degree bag will probably work for you on a 25-degree night.

Goose or No Goose?
The most important component of any sleeping bag is its insulating material. Modern sleeping bags offer two choices: goose down or synthetic. While both materials have advantages and disadvantages, down bags are considered superior because of their phenomenal warmth-to-weight and warmth-to-bulk ratios. While providing great insulation, down is extremely compressible and light. There's a reason why geese can fly and stay warm through the winter! Down also boasts great long-term durability and will typically retain its insulating properties after years of use.

All of that said, there are many high-quality synthetic bags on the market and synthetic materials are getting better all the time. While a synthetic bag will weigh somewhat more than a down bag at an equivalent temperature rating, synthetic bags perform better when wet. (Yes, the Achilles heel of down is that it loses all insulating properties when wet.) If your trips take you to wet climates, you may want to consider a synthetic bag for this reason alone. Keep in mind, too, that many people are allergic to down--synthetic bags are non-allergenic. Finally, down is considerably more expensive than synthetic, which might tip the balance for adventurers on a budget.

Bags for All Shapes
Sleeping bags come in two basic shapes that reflect their intended use. Mummy-shaped bags offer the best warmth because they conform to the body's contours. This minimizes the amount of body heat the body must put out to maintain a constant temperature. Many mummy bags are offered in women-specific shapes and sizes, as well. Rectangular bags, while they do offer more room to toss and turn, are less thermally efficient because they contain more open air space. Also, they are typically heavier than mummy bags, and are generally not offered with down insulation, making them best suited for car camping or short backpacking trips.

Pad Yourself
No matter what kind of bag you choose, a sleeping pad is a required accessory. Not only do they provide much-needed comfort when sleeping on the ground, pads also offer crucial warmth for your backside, as the weight of your body compresses--and renders virtually useless--the sleeping bag insulation that lies beneath you.

Customer Review: Great for the kids!
I purchased 2 for my 6 year old nephew. Colors are great, quality of fabric is nice. Light weight and compact as far as bags of this style go. Roomy and snuggly warm for the kids. Perfect for weekend camping and overnights in a tent which was the intent of the purchase.
Customer Review: Nice cold weather sleeping bag
I've bought two of this model. They work real well for cold weather camping. Most of my cold weather camping is with the boy scouts in igloos and snow caves. I've sleep on multiple occasions where it has been 10-20 degrees outside, probably 30 degrees where I'm sleeping and I've been cozy. The only compliant I have is the zipper catches on the inside baffle. My other summer Slumberjack sleeping bag has a larger zipper and doesn't catch. My summer bag is now 25 years old and still looks and works great. I'm hoping this model lasts just as long.

Winter adventurers should look for bags in the -10 to +10 range, while those on serious winter alpine climbs and expeditions will want a bag rated lower than -10.

Keep in mind that sleeping bag manufacturers' temperature ratings only estimate the minimum temperature at which the bag will provide warmth. Take these numbers with a grain of salt, as different folks generate different amounts of heat when they sleep. If you're the type who likes to pile on the covers even on warmer nights, go for a bag that's rated ten degrees colder. The opposite is true for "warm" sleepers--a 35-degree bag will probably work for you on a 25-degree night.

Goose or No Goose?
The most important component of any sleeping bag is its insulating material. Modern sleeping bags offer two choices: goose down or synthetic. While both materials have advantages and disadvantages, down bags are considered superior because of their phenomenal warmth-to-weight and warmth-to-bulk ratios. While providing great insulation, down is extremely compressible and light. There's a reason why geese can fly and stay warm through the winter! Down also boasts great long-term durability and will typically retain its insulating properties after years of use.

All of that said, there are many high-quality synthetic bags on the market and synthetic materials are getting better all the time. While a synthetic bag will weigh somewhat more than a down bag at an equivalent temperature rating, synthetic bags perform better when wet. (Yes, the Achilles heel of down is that it loses all insulating properties when wet.) If your trips take you to wet climates, you may want to consider a synthetic bag for this reason alone. Keep in mind, too, that many people are allergic to down--synthetic bags are non-allergenic. Finally, down is considerably more expensive than synthetic, which might tip the balance for adventurers on a budget.

Bags for All Shapes
Sleeping bags come in two basic shapes that reflect their intended use. Mummy-shaped bags offer the best warmth because they conform to the body's contours. This minimizes the amount of body heat the body must put out to maintain a constant temperature. Many mummy bags are offered in women-specific shapes and sizes, as well. Rectangular bags, while they do offer more room to toss and turn, are less thermally efficient because they contain more open air space. Also, they are typically heavier than mummy bags, and are generally not offered with down insulation, making them best suited for car camping or short backpacking trips.

Pad Yourself
No matter what kind of bag you choose, a sleeping pad is a required accessory. Not only do they provide much-needed comfort when sleeping on the ground, pads also offer crucial warmth for your backside, as the weight of your body compresses--and renders virtually useless--the sleeping bag insulation that lies beneath you.

Customer Review: Cold weather bag or intro to mummies
I love this bag when the weather gets cold. I have used it comfortably down to about 15 degrees on a thermal pad with thermals/socks/cap. The rectangular foot is a little harder to heat since it has so much room, but you can stuff in tomorrow's clothes to reduce the air space. It helped me get over the transition from full rectangular to a mummy type bag since I thought I needed the freedom. The oversized bag has good shoulder room for XL guys. I learned that when it gets cold I don't need much leg room. Good for car camping, a little heavy for backpaking.
Customer Review: Great bag
I got this bag because my slumberjack cot was probably the best made cot Ive ever owned and because it was wider then a mummy bag. It looks and feels very solid and For the most part i was very warm considering it was about 20 deg outside and windy. The carrier bag is a bit to small and very hard to get the sleeping bag into. So i may buy a bigger carrier bag soon But over all i am very pleased with this bag and still stand by all slumberjack products.

Don't be left out in the cold without your Slumberjack Sleeping Bag Pillow included / Roll-up Hood
Customer Review: Nice
My son loved the frogs and it seemed like a perfect fit. I could see how the material may easily rip in the wash in the future and don't buy it for the pillow! It easily rolls up and velcros for easy storage and carrying. Overall, we like this product.
Customer Review: Nice Sleeping Bag
Very nice sleeping bag. Seems to be made well. The pillow is little but it's suppose to fit little heads. Someone had said theirs had come in a clear plastic bag, but mine came in a box...it did have the picture on it but it was a gift so it was wrapped up. My grandson did like it.

Sleep Well: Finding the Right Sleeping Bag
Sleeping bag technology has come a long way from the days of cowboy bedrolls. These days, there are a number of high-tech materials and designs available to keep you warm during the coldest outings. Here's a short list of things to keep in mind when you're shopping for a bag:

Buy for Cold
It's a safe bet that on at least one of your adventures, the nighttime temperature will drop unexpectedly. That's why it's smart to buy a bag that's rated for the lowest possible temperature you expect to face on your camping and backpacking trips. For summer trips, a bag rated at +35 degrees or higher will likely do the trick. If you like to camp in higher elevations in the summer, or if spring and fall outings are in your future, consider bags rated from +10 to +35.

Customer Review: great buy for big guy
This product is well worth it. I go camping a lot. There's plenty of room which I love. I'm 6'2" 265lbs so if your big get this bag...I slept great and was nice and warm. Bigger than I expected.
Customer Review: Winter Sleeping Bag is WARM & QUIET -Love it!
This sleeping bag is really great. It is far warmer than my other nylon bags, and comparable to a 6 inch thick down comforter. And I mean that in a good way. The cotton duck outer (like soft canvas) and comfy flannel inner is just awesome - and QUIET. I just love the quietness. All my older bags have been nylon which make a lot of rustling noises which bother me everytime I move (and anyone else trying to sleep nearby). This SlumberJack Big Timber long sleeping bag is so cushy soft you almost don't need an air mattress. But you'll sleep better if you do have one. I can highly recommend the ThermaRest Base Camp air mattress. It's really great, and last for dozens of years! Therm-a-Rest Base Camp (Large) The one thing to be aware of is that no air mattress does well if you leave it all blown up in a hot trailer. It will pOp! or at least get a slow leak. If I hadn't done that, I'd still be using the same ThermaRest I got in the 1980's and slept on sharp rocks & broken glass without a puncture nor leak. Tough! So deflate it some before you leave it for the day (or season) and you'll never have a problem. This sleeping bag has a BIG square foot end, so there is tons of unrestricted room for feet. Totally opposite of mummy bags. Zipper is good quality metal. I sometimes feel a slight draft near the zipper, but this bag is so warm that is ok - just slightly refreshing. This bag is wider than most, which is ok - I have plenty of room. But it might be a squeeze in a small tent. This is NOT a backpacking bag. It's too bulky & heavy to lug around all day. But it's perfect for car camping! It's possible to use this bag in the summer, but you will be opening it just to cool off about half the time. Get yourself another sleeping bag for summer. This is the most comfortable winter sleeping bag I have ever had, and I'm happy to recommend it now. EDIT: I actually have the 0 degree bag. I still love it.
