Softie Elite 5 Civilian Blue Chrysalis Expedition Right Zip Review

Softie Elite 5 Civilian Blue Chrysalis Expedition Right ZipThis bag is amazing.I searched long and hard for the best synthetic sleeping bag and this is it.I am a huge guy, 6'1 300lbs and though it is a little "snug" for me it keeps me VERY warm on the coldest nights.Many times I unzip the bag so as to not over-heat.In warmer temps I keep it unziped and it works great.SnugPak Softie Elite 5 is what the UK special forces use in cold weather and I can see why.It has great loft and is impregnated with thermo-reflective material to keep your body warmth in and will protect you more from losing heat into the ground.Very easy to wash and dry and is made of great quality materials.It does have a unique baffle system (more than one zipper) to regulate how warm you want to be.If you are looking for a synthetic sleeping bag that will keep you as warm (or even warmer!) than most down bags, this is what you want.I am ordering a second one for my little boy. :)

Softie 3 Merlin, Olive Review

Softie 3 Merlin, OliveI purchased the Merlin 3 5 years ago and use it for the cool seasons, 40 degrees to 80 degrees. The synthetic material make it too warm for summer and the lightweight make it too light for winter. However, this is the most compact, reasonably priced lightweight mummy bag I have found. It dries well, packs quickly and is highly durable. The stuff sack it came well is also a water proof compression bag.

Several minor complaints: (1) the zipper will stick if you are not conscientious; (2) the bag is rated to 32 degrees Fahrenheit but is not comfortable without being supplemented below 40 degrees; and, (3) while not narrow, the bag is not designed for broad shouldered people.

These aside, I highly recommend the Merlin 3 for temperate hikes and frequent enjoyment as I have on countless long and short forays into the great wild.
