Synthetic winter sleeping bag

Post by rollindoughnut »

Could I have recommendations for a decent 4 season sleeping bag?
I'm a little bit allergic to down so hoping to find a synthetic bag that's warm enough for trips into the UK hills and mountains during winter.
Will be hiking so bulk not quite such an issue as when bikepacking.

Have a look at the MH Lamina range. Lots of choice and can often be found at a good price.

I don't think you can do any better in the balance between price weight and warmth

I once had an MH ultra lamina 0, crazy small pack size for such a warm bag, I don’t think they make the ultras anymore and it’s something I regret selling

Not sure if a quilt appeals but the Climashield Apex insulation is very good, I know Wiggys make Apex bags but I think they’re more aimed at arctic forays

I’ve got a Mountain Hardwear Lamina 0 in the cupboard upstairs that I’m not using. Not sure if it’s the regular or long version, I’d need to check. Pm if you’re interested.
I’ve been abart a bit

Sounds great! Have pm'd you.
I'm only 5'11 so guess either length would be fine.
