“I am a hammock sleeper and wanted a warmer bag. Its an 'Arctic bag' , which led me to believe that it was a very capable bag in cold weather. Its not great. I have used it a few times throught the seasons at best I would say that its a good 3 season bag. It fell well below my expectations. I have just had a week hanging in an English wood with some nights falling to -3. I had an under blanket and a pad underneath me. I wore thick thermal leggings, a base layer, merino top and a wool jumper, wool socks and a hat. Still not as warm as I expected. Its okay in the earlier part of the night its at that 4am-6am cold drop that I could feel it. Normally in a hammock its the underneath that the body feels the cold, I got that sorted out. I noticed that it was on the top of my body that I could feel less than warm at the coldest part of the night. Okay I wasn't going to get hypothermier, but I wasnt roasty toasty either. I had one night when I was very warm. I had all the above and added a fleece sleeping bag liner. Considering its an 'Arctic bag', I found it very underwhelming. I also do not like the half zip, it made it very difficult (in a hammock) to get in and out of the bag. On the plus side the delivery was quick.”
