Description

Why We Love The Torchlight UL Sleeping Bag

The Torchlight UL Sleeping Bag from Big Agnes is an exceptional choice for backpackers seeking a lightweight and versatile sleeping bag. It is a lighter version of the Torchlight series and offers the warmest insulation. What sets this sleeping bag apart is its unique dual zipper design that allows for easy expansion. With just a few simple adjustments, you can increase the bag's width by about five inches to accommodate different clothing layers based on weather conditions.

Big Agnes has prioritized functionality in this design by ensuring that the bag can be adjusted for optimal comfort. Slide the zippers down to create extra space for wearing additional layers during colder nights, and slide them back up for a snug fit when wearing summer clothing. Whether you're camping in chilly autumn weather or enjoying a summer adventure, the Torchlight UL Sleeping Bag will keep you comfortable all year round.

One of the standout features of this sleeping bag is its outstanding protection against the elements. Big Agnes has utilized 850-fill down insulation, which is not only incredibly lightweight but also highly compressible. This premium insulation efficiently retains warmth, while the DownTek hydrophobic coating ensures that the down maintains its loft and heat-trapping capabilities even in wet conditions. This means you can have peace of mind knowing that you'll stay warm and dry throughout your outdoor adventures.
