Temperature ratings are intended as a guideline to help you compare products, rather than a guarantee of warmth, since many different factors contribute to your comfort while you sleep. Backpacking bags are typically rated for temperature according to an independent testing protocol—currently International Organization for Standardization (ISO) 23537, though some older items followed European Norm (EN) 13537. Testing is based on a person wearing one base layer and a pair of socks, sleeping on an insulated surface with a minimum R-value of 5.38.
Each bag then gets 2 ratings: the Comfort rating is the lowest temperature at which the bag will keep the average "cold sleeper" comfortable, and the Lower Limit rating is the lowest temperature at which the bag will keep the average "warm sleeper" comfortable. Some brands determine their own temperature rating by aligning to the Comfort rating for women’s bags, to the Lower Limit rating for men’s bags, or somewhere in the middle for nongendered bags.

Excellent idea.

Makes it much easier to run away when you are attacked at night by bears, mountain lions,or wolves. It's a real lifesaver !

I thought this would be a great idea for hiking. it,s heavy, and on 30-degree night in a tent, I had several cold spots. your hands and feet will be different temps and it's something you will notice and drive you mad. While this is a fun idea, you would be warmer and spend less on a full sold weather suit. I couldn't wait to get off trail and return it. Also, get ready to be the butt of every joke.

So warm but sizing is odd
2 years ago
I really want to love this, but I might end up returning it. It's super warm and cozy and it would be amazing when I'm winter camping. But the shape and size don't fit well. I'm 5'6" and purchased a L because I like to have room to move and layer. The arms and legs are huge, but the hips are snug when I'm doing anything except standing up. When I'm standing up, the bag is just right in height, but when I sit or lie down, it's too short and my feet have to stick up from the bag pulling. I cannot understand why they don't make more variety in sizes, including petite, long, and women's sizes.

so warm and comfy!

This thing is amazing! The suit is extremely comfortable and warm. I live in a bus so I love drinking some hot tea lounging on my futon/bed and then curling up in my comfy “body bag”. Would recommend it to everyone who likes to stay warm while having the ability to move freely. Perfect for camping or early spring ball games. You will be the envy of the crowd when they see how nice and comfortable you are and they’re still freezing. Easy to move around in and fit is pretty true to size

Very warm and comfy! I’m a 5’2” female and ordered a size medium. Anyone my size or taller should probably size up for more flexibility. I used this while camping recently in temperatures in the upper 40s and was perfectly warm wearing this inside a sleeping bag without the booties on. I did find the sleeves a bit restrictive when rolling over (I don’t lay still when sleeping), but even taking my arms out of the sleeves and pulling the top around me kept me very warm and comfy!

It is cozy and warm, but...

The sizing is off, I think. I got this as a Christmas gift and tried it out for a few days, otherwise I'd exchange it for a size larger size. I am 5'8" 170lbs. According to the sizing chart I should fit easily into a large. The large fits fine when I am standing with arms at my side, but range of motion is limited. I cannot raise my arms without it getting too snug in the crotch and feet. I can't sit or bend my knees up without it getting too tight around the feet or shoulders. The worst is I cannot plantar flex my feet (point my toes down) with the bottoms attached. My feet are stuck at 90 degrees. There is enough pressure on the soles of my feet that it becomes pretty uncomfortable, almost feels like I've been standing although I'm reclined trying to relax. If there were just another inch or so of material length in the legs so as to allow for more flexion. The short length and short inseam do make it easy to walk around without tripping over material, however. I wish they would maybe design an unzippable expansion seam in the legs kinda like the way some luggage can be expanded, unzipped to in create more volume. I may exchange it for an XL. I still think it would be great If it fit better. I recommend going a size larger than the chart indicates if you are considering this. Or, maybe try it on in store first? Make sure you can fully flex while inside it!

Perfect for cold weather lounging / sleeping

I do a lot of hiking and would not purchase this for hiking; however, if your goal/need is to have full-body 'coat' you won't be disappointed. It's super warm, lightweight and looks cool. If people are making fun of you with this on, they are jealous :)
