I have a Zenbivy setup. I’ve spent the past decades getting the worst tent sleeps. I’ve tried all the expensive stuff and cheap stuff. Last year I decided to swap everything out and try the most comfortable stuff. I got a Thermarest Neoloft and the Zenbivy Overland XL and it’s easily the most comfortable I’ve ever been. I live in Colorado and adv through the summer mostly, but will be sleeping in anywhere from 30 deg to 70 deg due to altitudes and weather changes. I would end up just using my old 20 deg bag as a blanket unless it got really cold and I’d zip it up, but as a blanket it’d slip off at night and I hate sleeping in tight bags as a side sleeper. My pillow would always fall off. The Zenbivy just works perfect for someone like me. It’s just a blanket that can keep me warm enough, doesn’t slide off, and attaches the pillow to it. All for the cost of 2 hotel nights. Also that Neoloft is a 5 inch pad that is unbelievably comfortable for a side sleeper. I didn’t even know they made pads with this type of material.

Any thermarest bag is a good start and I've just tried out the ZenBivy and so far absolutely love it. Would also say that a good sleeping mat goes a long way to keep you warm. You could have the best bag for the cold but a weak mat can undo all the work of a good bag!

Seconding this. I've had mine for years and have never felt confined or cold.

They’re constrictive and you get twisted up inside the lining if you move in your sleep. Zenbivy came up with the solution to this and other problems.

Sierra Designs has or had one recently. I tried it out but didn't like it much and ended up going with a Zenbivy which is exactly what I hoped it would be.

if you're worried about being cramped maybe try the [zenbivy](http:// https://share.google/tGLl4cDuNv4Fhm4ng)?

I love my zenbivy set up...but that is a lot of $, esp just starting out. I have the more basic zipper version I got on sale. Then added a big agnes wide and long rapide SL. Combined with a larger drift pillow (chopped memory foam) from klymit. Heavier and bulkier but cheaper and I'd say more comfy than this bundle is.

Zenbivy. Especially if you’re anything but a back sleeper.
