“The number of sleeping bag options for family campers is especially broad this season.  The choices run from extremely technical, yet affordable, bags to sleeping bags that are designed to fit all sizes and shapes.”

“Let’s start with this year’s pinnacle bags that incorporate some of the year’s most advanced technologies such as that seen in the new DwrDown bags from Sierra Designs.  A dramatic improvement over standard down, DwrDown features a molecular level polymer applied to individual down plumes during a proprietary down finishing process developed by Sierra Designs.  The result is a hydrophobic (water dispersing) down that stays dry seven times longer, maintains 98 percent more loft after a night in a high-humidity environment and dries 33 percent faster when it does get wet, providing a drier, warmer, more comfortable night’s sleep.  Sierra Designs is introducing five new DwrDown sleeping bags ranging from 0 to 30F in men’s and women’s designs.”
