Big Game 0°F Big & Tall Sleeping Bag

The problem I've had with big square bags in cold weather is the foot box. It's too big and gets cold spots. I jam a shirt or jacket down there to fill in the corners I have a Coleman Big Game sleeping bag. It's big and warm.

Check out the Coleman Big Game sleeping bag - its rated to 0°F, fits people up to 6'5", costs around $80, and the fleece lining is way more comfortable for extended laying than most camping bags.

coleman makes a big and tall bag. nothing fancy but adequate for sure. been using mine for a few years now and I am very pleased with it. excellent for the price. i also have an Exped Megamat max to sleep on and it is fantastic. Definitely pricey but worth it. I also own a nice cot but never use it, the exped on the ground is very comfy without needing the extra weight and space of the cot. I have also used one of those tall queen sized inflatable air mattresses which sucks on its own…but if you get it very inflated and stiff and put a mattress topper on it, it can be very comfortable but takes up a lot of space.

The temperature ratings on higher end bags will adhere to an industry standard, namely ISO 23537/EN 13537 which specifies the testing requirements as well as provide you with a comfort, limit and extreme temperature rating. From what I can see, Coleman doesn't seem to provide that so you'll be forced to trust their marketing numbers. For example, the ISO/EN tested bags assume you are wearing a warm base layer, hat and using a sleeping pad with a R4.8 rating. Who knows what Coleman is expecting you to be using? If you go with the Coleman, make sure you test it out before you use it on a trip. Set it up on your deck or balcony and you'll know within 15 min whether or not you made the right choice.

Breathable fabric, Water resistance, true temp bag You would die in a Coleman 0° bag if it had to be in 0° weather. Pack size, weight, durability of the fabric, filling ( down, synthetic, some cheap ass material).the cut of the bag or style

I bought a Coleman 0 deg sleeping bag at Ocala FL Walmart back in the early 2000s. Was out on an impromptu weekend and needed a bag. I think I paid $40 for it. It was actually a great bag and I still own it. I quit using it bcs it is a synthetic fill 0 deg bag and doesn't pack down small enough for my pack. But for car camping 100%. Never found another one like it. Loved it!. Worst case, you don't have a ton invested. Although, you can find several comparable bags for around the same price. We have so little faith in Coleman brand these days and rightly so, but from time to time they actually still make a good product.

Weight Pure and simple The Coleman bag you’re referencing is probably close to 10 pounds High end gear may weigh less than a pound and give you the same RF factor essentially. I’m pushing the boundaries when I’m calling out 1 pound but current gear is close to that. It’s also super high fill down, probably north of 1000 full[Fill] power……. Expensive stuff
