Fly Creek UL
Versatile Down Quilt
Premium materials, like ultralight NetPlus® fabric made from recycled fishing nets and high-quality 850-fill down, along with a sleek design featuring Big Agnes Signature Diamond Quilting, produce a lighter, more packable bag. From the ergonmic footbox to the insulated draft collar, every aspect of this sleeping bag is designed to maximize thermal efficiency, without the need for extra weight and bulk. The result is a technical sleeping bag that is a backpacker's dream, perfect for fastpacking, thru hiking, or any overnight trip in three season temperatures.

Torchlight EXP
Adjustable Bag, Ideal for side sleepers
Easily adjust the Torchlight EXP's fit to your individual sleep style and body shape, and change it up easily whenever you need! Patented expandable side panel design adds up to 10” / 25cm of space wherever you choose - shoulders, hips, feet or your whole body. Fully insulated with 650 Fill Downtek™ PFC-Free water-repellent down, this bag keeps you warm all over while the integrated PadLok™ Sleep System keeps you on your pad all night long.
Greystone
Down Version of Anthracite Bags
deal for backpacking but versatile enough for couch surfing, the Greystone is insulated with 650 Downtek™ PFC-Free, uses baffle construction for efficient heat distribution, and includes a water-resistant coating to keep you dry. If you’re in the market for a high quality, lightweight mummy shaped bag that packs small and keeps you toasty in the backcountry, the Greystone is your ticket to getting out there in comfort!
Lost Ranger UL 3N1 Series
2 Bag System that Combines to give you 3 Options.
The Lost Ranger 3N1 0F offers a practical, well-executed take on modular sleep systems. The two-part design features an inner mummy bag and a quilted outer bag, which function across three configurations. Fit is a strong point. The semi-rectangular outer feels roomy while the mummy contours comfortably for cooler nights. The Padlock system keeps everything aligned with your mat, and the Pillow Barn adds real value for side sleepers. It is a relief not sliding off your mat or chase a drifting pillow in the middle of the night.
King Solomon
Double Bags for Couples
The Big Agnes King Solomon 20F delivers exactly what a double bag should: generous space, reliable warmth and smart packability. The updated Cinch Pad Sleeve system neatly secures one double mat or two singles without fuss. The full-zip top section transforms it into a shared comforter or solo quilt, which works well for mixed setups or fluctuating temperatures.
The down insulation (650 fill) holds up well in cooler conditions, though; I'm not sure I'd push it to its -7°C rating. The wide cut through the shoulders and the dual entry points give it a relaxed, bed-like feel, while details like the oversized draft collar and interior hand pockets make it easy to settle in for the night.
On this post we look at the Big Agnes sleeping bags that we stock and tell you a bit about them so you can choose the best one for you. — Big Agnes makes these two specialist bags ideally suited to Mountain Marathons and Ultralight Backpacking and because not everyone likes Down the V Notch is a synthetic option which nonetheless only weighs 582 grams. Both are ideal as a summer bag and despite being described as minimalist, they both have a reasonable feature-set.
