My feathered friends egret is one of my favorite things I own. Having the toe box in the right place makes all the difference. I got the 30 yf and I’ve not been cold in it yet

Base layer (including good, dry socks and a hat), ground sheet under the pad, and a nice sleeping bag in the right size fixed this for me. They’re not cheap, but feathered friends women’s bags are amazing as a small woman - down is actually in the right place, so their 30 degree bag keeps me warmer than my old 15 degree bag

I thought that I was a cold sleeper until I upgraded my sleeping bag and got one that is the proper length (I am 5ft5 and got a women sleeping bag for 5ft6 women). It made an incredible difference in how the sleeping bag keeps and uses my own body heat. I got the Feathered Friends Egret 20 yf. I pair it with a Big Agnes Rapide Sl pad and it is now my preferred piece of gear!

My SO sleeps cold. Thermarest Trail Pro - they used to make a women's specific one. I may upgrade this to the Nemo Tensor All Season for a holiday gift. Feathered Friends Egret - I take this from her when I go climbing it's so cozy I sleep warm- I freaking cook: Nemo Tensor All Season EE Enigma 30 950 fill

Feathered Friends has short bags for women. Temp ratings are spot on. The YF bags save $ over the UL for very slight weight increase. They also have a kids Flicker; 5ft hoodless bag that can unzip to quilt. I have a regular YF 30 that I love. Worth a phone call.

I'd been using a Marmot for 30 yrs, what they called a 10-20 30. Don't remember the price but it was the most expensive thing I bought for a very long time and glad I did. There were not as many choices back then and I don't think they are the same now. Point is it was annoying when it was warm. Couple of years ago I got a Feathered Friends Flicker 40. It's a hoodless sleeping bag that can also open all the way to a quilt. (no it doesn't attach to a pad) Had that down to mid 30's cowboy camping in the desert and was fine with a puffy on. I had wanted a 30 but out of stock. This year sold the 40 and got a 30 for a trip to Iceland in July. I'm very happy with it; works well across temps. Combined with the Marmot gets me down to 0. Since it is a bag when I want it's less fuss than a lot of the quilts out there. (love the draft collar and the foot closing completely). You can rent one and they will credit up to 2 nights rental cost toward a similar purchase. May help but likely incur some extra shipping costs unless you're in their area.

Try Feathered Friends! They have several women's sizes. I'm 5'3" and the small one I bought from them is almost too short.

Western Mountaineering, Feathered Friends or Marmot for bags. Enlightened Equipment, Hammock Gear or Katabatic for backpacking quilts. Not cheap but quality and comfortable.

I've been a quilt user for years, but if I were looking for sleeping bags, I would go with either Western Mountaineering or Feathered Friends. You absolutely get what you pay for with either brand. Awesome quality.
