Torchlight EXP Youth 20°

Might consider cross posting at r/hikingwithkids My kid uses an older big Agnes kids bag that has a sleeve for a standard 3/4 pad. My quilt is lighter than his bag, but his pad is lighter than mine. I like that he can't spin in circles and bump into me at night and he sleeps in it fine. I've been using it for car camping and would consider going for Morrison if I didn't get a great deal of this bag but I really do like that he stays on the pad and doesn't wake me up.

I've used and kinda liked the Big Agnes kids' bags. They've got a pad sleeve, which mostly solves the "kid curled up in the corner of the tent" issue. The ones I bought aren't available anymore, but they were 15F rated and okay down to freezing (maybe lower -- didn't try it). The weight is slightly below 2 pounds, which is in line with the current offerings. That would be heavy for an adult's bag, but my kids tend to carry their own bag, their pad, their own puffy, and that's about it. I usually used CCF with the pads. For colder nights, ALPS makes some super-bulky, very thick CCF that worked well, although it winds up strapped to the top of my pack. I wouldn't trust any of my kids to sleep properly in a quilt. The 14yo, maybe.

The Nemo spoon shaped bags, TR Boost or BA Torchlight are all nice and accommodating for flamingo type sleepers (I am one as well.) Also consider a quilt!

I would go with a quilt, they are great for moving around. Zenbivy is most peoples favorite, I really enjoy my Big Agnes.

If your biggest concern about a sleeping bag is room for your legs to move without feeling constricted, I would try out Nemo or Big Agnes sleeping bags. Both tend to have wider profiles. Definitely go for a bag that is rated at least 10 degrees lower - preferably lower - than the temps you expect to sleep in. Theres multiple problems with layering with clothing like this, one of which is not the warmth specific factor but the breathability. One or two layers is one thing, but with all the listed clothing and then something like the picture on top, you’re going to build up humidity near your body you can’t get rid of, and you’ll become even colder. Next, a sleeping bag basically creates a warm pocket of air around you. The insulation in the bag helps create and maintain this pocket. The more compressed this insulation, the worse it performs. With layering clothing, you compress the insulation, making it less effective. On top of that, insulation is minimal if not nonexistent at the seams. Some puffy jackets and “extreme temp” clothing gets around this by minimizing seams but there’s almost always a few somewhere, which means no air pockets and no warmth. If I could recommend the best case scenario for you, it would be this: find a sleeping bag you can tolerate rated to a temp appropriate for your conditions, 15F at a minimum, best scenario a 0F. Dress in only your smartwool layers, and make sure you have a good pad/sleep set up underneath you.

A Big Agnes sleeping bag with down that fit me correctly. I was iffy on the price at first, but it turns out I had basically used ill fitting, non insulated sleeping bags for years of wilderness camping. Getting a good nights sleep anywhere, especially away from home, makes a huge difference.

Just wanna say I respect the lack of overpriced fancy gear and I respect making it work for as long as you did! As much as I am “anti gear, pro getting out there”, a lightweight Big Agnes sleeping bag will roll up to about 1/8th the size of a rolled up Coleman. Mine has lasted me for 7 seasons so far no problems
