• Not the most compressible option for backpacking.
• Does not contain a fleece-lined footbox like the women’s version.
• Some reports of the zipper breaking or snagging on the fabric during use, reducing the efficiency of this bag.

Expert Reviews

• The packed size is bigger than other options, so can take up quite a bit of space in your pack.
• The interior fabric is not quite as cozy or soft-feeling as other choices.
• Some reports of the low-end temperature rating not being quite accurate.
• The compression sack is a little big and doesn’t reduce the size of the sleeping bag efficiently.
