Product Information

I don't use sleeping bag liners as it's extra weight to carry all day for a bit of luxury in my opinion. Made from extremely light and compressible Responsible Down Standard-certified insulation that’s been treated to repel water, this bag has several distinguishing features. The Kelty Cosmic Down 20’s is unusual in that it uses trapezoid-shaped baffles to provide insulation.

One clear difference when it comes to 4-season bags is that they will almost always come with hoods and baffles. Rectangular bags that don’t cover your head might be fine during the warmer parts of the year, but in the winter you really need a bag in which you can properly batten down the hatches. That’s why winter bags almost always come with hoods that can be cinched down tightly around the head.

The Exped Waterbloc Pro sleeping bag is a 4-season sleeping bag designed with bivying in mind. It has 800 fill down, making it very soft and warm, with a Pertex outer shell that repels the weather. As zips can allow for heat to escape, a good winter bag will also come with baffles along the length of the zip that seal everything in once it’s closed. A baffle will often be present around the shoulders to cinch down and tighten everything up, thereby preventing any heat from escaping through the night. Combine with a good sleep system This bag is a gloriously cozy cocoon to nestle within and, with a comfort limit of -15°C (5°F), it is wonderfully toasty in all but the most Baltic conditions. However, it's limited to sub-zero use, as its elasticated expander panel allows the user to open things up, thus regulating the temperature inside. Weighing 1,370g (3lb), the Leviathan 900 is also reasonably lightweight, considering the temperatures it is designed for. And while there are bags out there that will deliver an equivalent level of warmth at a fraction of the weight, there’s simply no beating it at this price point.

Regarding the size of the bag, I’m 177 cm (5ft 10in) and find that the bag is plenty roomy for me. When it’s warm, I can leave the top open and not cinch everything all the way up. When it’s cold, I can hunker down into the bag a little more, tighten up the baffles and zip everything up full.

Of course, there's a caveat here. We wouldn't recommend getting into a winter-rated sleeping bag during a July heatwave, but hopefully this is common sense. However, with spring upon us, you'll still get plenty of use out of these toasty bags.
