Cosmic Ultra 20

If you can fit into a women's size bag consider the Cosmic Ultra, it's basically the same thing as the regular cosmic down but with better quality down. https://a.co/d/01ERuBBU If you actually need a 15 degree (limit) bag I can't recommend the Mobile Mummy 15 enough. I love this bag. It's currently out of stock but it comes and goes from this website. https://www.kaviso.com/products/sierra-designs-mobile-mummy-15-degree?variant=45495009935588

I bought 2 sleeping bags this year. I'm just not a quilt person. However my summer bag (37°), bought a Chinese brand Qezer on Amazon under $100. My winter down bag Kelty Ultra Cosmic 20 also on Amazon for under $160. Now I'm not suggesting these are the best or necessarily for you, but I'm satisfied with both of them and don't feel that they broke the bank. However, they are both made of down, significantly lighter than synthetic, and pack down to a reasonable size for my pack.

Well I don't have experience with the katabatic and haven't touched one. But I did research them and the strap system was the selling point for me along with the cost all other things comparable. I feel like the quality is great. Like I said zero buyers remorse. I was coming from a Kelty Cosmic Ultra 20 mummy bag which I felt underperformed this winter. I shaved almost a pound of gear weight and at 30 degrees F (the coldest I've had the waratah out in so far) I was much warmer than I've experienced being in the Kelty, which I would have had to pair with a fleece liner at that temperature.

You're likely to get all kinds of different advice, but the Kelty is a solid budget bag I think. They also have a Kelty Ultra Cosmic 20 that is 800 fill down and it packs down smaller than the regular Cosmic 20, and it's also under $200.

Kelly cosmic down 20f, not under 80$ tho, if your short you can get the women’s one at backcountry for like 110$.

Usually any self inflating sleeping pad gets the job done. Alps mountaineering outback sleeping pad is the one I use for camping. As for sleeping bags Kelty is always your best budget sleeping bags.i use a 20 down sleeping bag.

I’ve had the Comic 20 for about a year now and it’s the warmest sleeping bag I’ve ever had. I would recommend a different bag if the lowest temp you’re going to be in is in the 40s cause you’ll be roasting! It really is a good bag though.

I’ve used it in single digits before. One night was around 5 degrees Fahrenheit and I was warm in just my most base layer.
