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.

Comfortable, warm, and very packable
2 months ago
Love this sleeping bag! I took it on a two month cycling trip, where I camped 90% of the time in weather from warm to many days close to freezing in the rain. I was always comfortable and warm. I’m a woman with wider hips and the short was the perfect length, and only a little snug around the hips but really not restrictive (plenty of room for the down to loft.) I wish there was a little pocket for earplugs but that’s really my only, very minor, complaint.

Go-To Summer Bag

This sleeping bag is a great option for those looking for a very lightweight sleep system without compromise. It packs super small via a 3 strap compression sack and while it is very light, it still holds the features that make a sleeping bag reliable: full length zipper, synch cord around the face area, and premium materials. I use this bag in the Cascades, Chugach, and anywhere where nighttime temperatures are chilly by mild. Highly recommend!

Nice bag but cold!

I’ve used this bag for about 20 nights now and find it very difficult to stay warm. Anywhere south of 50 degree night temperatures, I was very cold. This was true even after adding a fleece sleeping bag liner.
No, I do not recommend this product

Good little bag

Lightweight and packable, exactly what I needed. I haven’t tested it near its temperature limit but have so far found it warm. Would be nice if they added a draft collar.
