Marmot says:
Refuel on your next cold backpacking adventure in the ultra-light Hydrogen -3° Sleeping Bag, featuring a new sustainable ExpeDry water-repellant technology that increases down performance and reduces the drying time. With an optimal ISO-tested comfort right around freezing, the Hydrogen will give you the warmth you need in a super-packable 800-fill down bag designed to easily stuff into any overnight pack. A thru-hiking favorite, the new gas bags provide lightweight warmth that's light on the Earth--perfect when you're looking to maximize kilometers or speed in the mountains and minimize weight and space in your pack.
Our Verdict
Marmot's Hydrogen Down Sleeping Bag uses 100% recycled material for the shell. It still offers a great balance of quality, low weight, packability, and performance. It's comparable to many more expensive products, as it is lighter and more compressible than many of its competitors. It uses 800+ fill power down protected with Marmot's Down Defender to help the down to stay dry longer, loft better when damp and dry more quickly than untreated down. The new recycled Pertex Quantum fabric offers a combination of lightweight and good durability plus it's DWR coating will offer some water resistance. The fabric feels really soft which allows the down to loft freely and the slightly brushed feel of the Microlight lining fabric is extremely comfortable against your skin.
The -3°C Comfort Limit gives you some flexibility for using it through three seasons when paired with a good insulated mat. All the usual features are present with a bag of this quality plus the additional small 'fold-down' second zip which allows you to roll the top of the bag down. This is perfect for a warmer night to avoid overheating or for a cold evening where you want to be sitting in the bag inside the tent.
