Product Detail
The Big Agnes Sidewinder SL Sleeping Bag is a game - changer for side sleepers. This patent - pending Sidewinder Series bag is crafted to deliver warmth, comfort, and easy use, no matter which side you rest on. It combines the best features of a traditional mummy bag with body - mapped insulation. This insulation optimizes warmth exactly where you need it, while reducing pressure points and other discomforts. Key features include a technical fit designed specifically for side sleepers, allowing you to roll from one side to the other smoothly. The close - fitting, jacket - style hood keeps the insulation close to your body without restricting your movement. The unique Pillow Barn, made of stretch mesh, keeps your pillow in place and can be easily adjusted from either side. With body - mapped insulation, you'll enjoy optimized warmth and fewer pressure points. The improved shell fabric and lining have a PFC - free water - repellent finish, adding durability. The down fill, also with a PFC - free water - repellent finish, provides excellent warmth, and synthetic insulation helps relieve pressure in the hips and feet. The footbox is shaped to match the position of your feet when lying on your side, ensuring a thermally efficient fit. The smooth, quick - zip has an anti - snag locking zipper, a no - draft zipper garage, and a long, ambidextrous design. You can adjust the hood easily without unzipping, thanks to the low - profile internal cordlock. Cinch the insulated tube along the upper hood opening to keep drafts out. There are exterior loops for hanging the bag for drying or storage. Both a storage sack and a stuff sack are included. Specifications: Regular bag weight is 1.02kg, and long bag weight is 1.13kg.

Using your Big Agnes Sidewinder SL Sleeping Bag is a breeze. First, unpack it from the stuff sack and shake it out to fluff up the insulation. Then, unzip the long, ambidextrous zipper and get inside. Adjust the pillow in the Pillow Barn for maximum comfort. You can use the low - profile internal cordlock to adjust the hood without unzipping. If it's drafty, cinch the insulated tube along the upper hood opening. When it's time to pack up, make sure the bag is dry. You can stuff it into the stuff sack for travel or hang it on the exterior loops for long - term storage. As for maintenance, spot - clean any stains with a mild detergent. Avoid machine - washing unless absolutely necessary, as it can damage the insulation. Hang dry the bag if it gets wet. This will help keep your sleeping bag in great shape for many adventures to come.
