About this deal

The comfort rating of a sleeping bag, given in degrees celsius, is the optimal temperature at which a user feel comfortable when sleeping in the “rolled-up” position. Price – as you’d expect the price of a product can be an instantly recognisable factor on what sort of quality you can expect. Whoever came up with the phrase “you get what you pay for” pretty much hit the nail on the head. Whilst it’s not always the case and there are many bargains to be had, you can as a general rule, expect the higher priced products to offer better quality than a the cheapest option. We’ll dive into the price of OEX Fathom EV 400 Sleeping Bag in more detail in a moment. A long length sleeping bag is the best choice sleeping bag for those taller campers among us with a 6ft+ guideline for optimum comfort. I'm looking to hear about people's experiences and set ups during these months. And what you'd recommend for my situation. I know it's somewhat subjective, but I need to buy something so advice appreciated. Thanks in advance.

When buying Sleeping Bags, the quality of the product is going to be one of the factors that you really scrutinise before you commit to buying. These bags offer an impressive amount of room compared to mummy sleeping bags but are worse than the mummy sleeping bags for retaining heat. Due to this reasoning, the rectangular bags are best suited to indoor and summer camping where keeping warm is less of an issue. I've researched a lot but haven't bought anything yet as I worry a bunch that I'll be too hot or too cold with the bags I find. I've looked at quilts too as they appear to have better ventilation options. I think I'll like a quilt but I'm not sure. A zip baffle, located behind the zip, is great for reducing the heat loss through the zipper, making a great addition to those 3 and 4 season bags. Zip cover The downside to buying online is that you can’t actually get hold of the product to try it out first.

Got a Klymit Insulated Static V sleeping mat with R rating 1.9. Might need to upgrade this, especially if I end up with a quilt? Two things I was looking for specifically were both in comparison with the sleeping bag I was replacing – I wanted it to be the same or lighter in weight, and rated a little warmer so I could more comfortably camp in spring and autumn. When choosing my bag I had the West Highland Way in mind – that was my benchmark in terms of what I needed this bag to do for me in terms of be light enough to carry and warm enough for camping in Scotland. We’re really pleased to have scored OEX Fathom EV 400 Sleeping Bag so highly, givimg it 9.6 out of 10, making it well above the average for all Sleeping Bags. To give that price some context we then looked at all of the products available from Go Outdoors in the Sleeping Bags category. We found 18 items in total. What’s the price of Sleeping Bags? If given the option, it’s optimal to get a sleeping bag with a left-hand zip if you’re right-handed or a right-hand zip if you’re left-handed. Outer fabric

I’ve had my OEX Fathom for around six months now, but haven’t shared my review until now because the summer has been so incredibly warm. It’s a three-season sleeping bag, and as such, the first week I used it I slept on top of it rather than in it, and until the last couple of months I hadn’t zipped it up all the way. Hooray for a proper summer! The nights in September and October have been much cooler, as you might expect, and so I’ve now had opportunity to give some real consideration to my opinion. OEX Fathom EV 300 Sleeping Bag The extreme rating of a sleeping bag is the absolute minimum temperature limit which offers the user protection from frostbite or other temperature-related issues. Baffles are the name given to the compartments in the interior of the sleeping bags, helping to ensure that the insulation remains distributed evenly. Draft collar There are however some methods that you can use to determine a product’s quality without needing to physically have it. That’s why we’ve pulled together this list of key factors for OEX Fathom EV 400 Sleeping Bag below, to help you choose if it’s the right product for you and your budget.

Another factor that can be a great indication of product quality is the brand. Brands like OEX are of course extremely well known, especially for Sleeping Bags. I'll be using a tent for the foreseeable future (MSR hubba 2 person). Wanna try bivvying and try with a tarp eventually but want more solo experience first. If you’re a fan of ergonomics, it’s best to get yourself a sleeping bag with a zip that works well with your dominant hand.

Regular sleeping bags offer users a simple rectangular design with a zipper around two connecting sides. That got us thinking though, that we’re looking at every possible item from OEX so it would be good to narrow our search down even further and only look at OEX branded products within the Sleeping Bags category. The cost of OEX Sleeping Bags We lose most of our heat from our heads in a cold environment and by ensuring a hood is built into a sleeping bag, this can be minimised. Second vote for Cumulus. We have 350 quilts which are good for 3 seasons provided you use thermal PJs on cold (+5 to 0) nights which is fine since you will be using some PJs or liner even on a warm summer night to keep the quilt clean. Having used both quilts and bags, I settled on quilt for two reasons. First, regulating temperature is much easier with quilt and temperature varies a lot during the night. Second, the freedom of movement is much greater with quilt.Double sleeping bags, as the name suggests, are made for two people and typically measure 193 x 137cm. Where ventilation is of priority, a two-way zip can be a fantastic option in either half or full-length configurations.

Although regular sleeping bags were once the most common and popular outdoor sleeping companion, these have been overtaken by the mummy bags. Mummy sleeping bags For couples looking to join two sleeping bags together, the two-way zip is a great option and an alternative to the double sleeping bag. Zip baffle If the temperature is lower than the comfort rating of the sleeping bag, users are likely to be uncomfortable when sleeping. The average female does feel the cold more than the average male and as the comfort rating is a middle-ground for both, a couple of degrees leeway should be accounted for either way.

Mummy sleeping bags tapered to the shape of the body, much in the same way that ancient Egyptian mummies were preserved, hence the name.
