Description
Season: Cold Weather (+10F & below) Insulation Type: Down
Brand: Sierra Designs


Like new. It has been tested for warmth for one night in Yosemite with a liner inside and inside a very clean tent. I've wiped it down with a wet towel just incase there were any loose dirt particles that might have gotten in right after. Stored in my closet in the mesh bag that it came with. Stuff sack is included. I haven't taken any of the tags off.

This a 6 degree (Fahrenheit) bag for freezing temperatures. 700 down. Hydrophobic treated Dri-Down will stay dry and retain loft even if your bag gets wet from rain, snow, sweat or condensation. If you're at least 6 ft. tall, this long size (78 in.) is recommended for you to have some room in your bag for your water, electronics and next day's clothes when camping in freezing cold weather. This is great bag at a great value because temperature rating is just right for winter camping and the 700 down is a good balance between weight (3.09 lbs) and cost (around $300). (The nylon shell makes a bigger difference in weight.) They also made a 12 degree one for the 2015 Winter season. This is the warmer one.
