Big Agnes' Mystic UL 15 Down Sleeping Bag is light enough to take backpacking and yet it is more focused on comfort than just the weight. The stretch fabric designed to contain the sleeping mat improves the connection between bag and mat making for a great nights sleep.

The Downtec hydrophobic treated 850 fill power down repels water and speeds up drying time it if does get wet. The lightweight nylon ripstop fabrics are durable and soft to the touch. Vertical side walls help to trap heat closer to your body and the tapered vaulted foot box creates wiggle room for your feet. The bag is well proportioned and quite spacious internally. This would suite people who want that extra space or those who move around a lot as this has the added benefit of the Free Range hood.

To use the full pad sleeve a rectangular sleeping mat is needed and the dimensions of the bag need to match. The material does stretch enough to fit a pillow in too to maximise that comfort.
