This item is currently sold out or unavailable online.

For your reference, this page contains historical product information.

This new, spacious -5° F bag is a warm, technical choice for female climbers, winter campers and mountaineers.

  • Unique Z-Baffle construction maximizes loft, ensures consistent insulation coverage and prevents convective heat loss
  • Ripstop nylon shell offers long-lasting durability and abrasion resistance for years of use
  • New, exclusive REI® insulation uses the best blend of polyester fibers for a lighter, more compressible bag
  • Designed for women, with a narrow cut at the shoulders, more width at the hips and extra insulation in the footbox and torso where it's needed most
  • Differentiated drawcords allow quick identification, even in the dark—so neck or hood adjustments are a cinch!
  • Exterior chest pocket is great for stowing small necessities like your watch or lip balm, alleviating middle-of-the-night fumbling
  • Pad loops provide attachment points to keep your sleeping bag and pad together to avoid rolling off onto the cold ground (straps sold separately)
  • Contoured hood, insulated muffler and draft collar, roomy foot box and full-length draft tube keep heat in, cold out
  • Pillow pocket can be stuffed with clothes to make a pillow, or bag can be tucked away in the pocket during the day
  • Nylon compression stuff sack and cotton storage bag included

Ever notice how most sleeping bags are made out of one type of insulation? When you sleep, you lose heat in different ways. While convective heat loss is generally regulated by loft, radiation (in the infrared range) will be best reflected by fibers whose size closely matches the wavelength of your emitted radiation. With this in mind, we've combined a burly, durable, lofty continuous filament insulation that's good at blocking air movement with a soft, fine, thermally bonded fiber optimized to reflect back your radiant heat. This creates a warmer, softer, loftier and more compressible bag than single insulation bags.

Imported.

Comments about REI Zenith -5 Sleeping Bag - Women's Regular:

This is honestly the coolest bag ever ... except it is REALLY too warm for almost any usage whatsoever. Just realize that it's a beautiful bag that you will never get to use. If you really are using it at the South Pole, then this bag's for you!
Also it's VERY short. You need to be under 5'4" for this bag to work. Otherwise, get the long one!

  • What Is Your Gear Style:
  • Comfort Driven

Bottom Line Yes, I would recommend this to a friend
