Another mummy bag in a mummy bag is underrated. I tried the sea to summit liner. What an absolute joke. I got a Nemo forte 20 that has a broken zipper. I put it in my other mummy bag. Absolute game changer. This probably isn’t helpful as you’re not carrying 2 bags. Sorry. Just shower thoughts

Not to convince you otherwise, I had the same problem, but like the sleeping bag. Nemo spoon shape was the answer for this side sleeper. Got the Forte 20.

I have the Nemo and cannot recommend enough. The extra room makes a huge difference for comfortable sleep and it keeps you nice and toasty. I have the Nemo Forte 20 and have used it comfortably in single digits multiple times- just don’t forget a bandana/scarf for your face!

r/BuyItForLifeLooking for durable kids’ sleeping bags for backyard camping, I've been eyeing on this one. Does anyone tried this?

I’ve got a Nemo Forte mummy bag that’s lasted me several years. It’s been heavily abused and other than a spot where my husky decided to attack my feet on our first camping trip, it’s still in great shape. I probably paid around $80 to $100 at an REI garage sale and still love it because it has vents to help regulate the temp, has a little extra room to adjust my knees and elbows because I’m a side sleeper and the hood/top section holds a pillow or extra clothing to turn into a pillow. Only downside is that it’s geared towards more petite people as I think the max height recommended is around 5’5”, anyone else is going to be sleeping outside of the bag.

The nemo spoon shape is very comfy IMO and because of that, as you said, is likely to be a bit heavier and bulkier. I love my nemo bag and put up with the bit of weight and space.

I have the Nemo forte and it's pretty good, definitely miles better than any other sleeping bag I've tried. It's not perfect though. It's fairly heavy and quite a large pack size as it's synthetic and doesn't compress very well. I have an alpkit quilt for summer and I prefer to use that whenever the weather permits.

I have the Nemo and it’s great, the spoon shape and thermo gills are really nice. I do a lot of bikepacking and always strap the bag to the top of the rear pannier rack. It is a bit bulky but no problem.
