good value down bag

[handwerk]

Looking for something that packs down pretty small, 25-30 degree, will be used for backpack and bike packing at an affordable price.

Outdoor gear lab.com has reviews, specs on about every bag out there but the hunting specific companies. Great place to start, there are some budget friendly 20 deg bags they say don’t quite make the temp rating, so that should put you in the 30-35 range.

You might look for a used Nemo on ebay. I picked up a Nocturne 15, 750 treated down for $160 tmd.

Just came, looks OK and I will try it Friday evening. Probably will revivex wash it next week.

Have a look at wilderness excursions- I picked up a 0*C bag for less than $150cdn. I haven’t been able to try it yet (still too cold for a light bag up here) but I’m impressed with the quality of the build. It’s a their below my wife’s western mountaineering bag, but I don’t think it gives up nearly $300 in performance and quality.

I would just look at the fp rating rather than a particular brand and wouldn’t go below 700fp. I got an alps mountaineering bag on clearance for like $130 or so, 20 degree bad 2.5 lbs with 700fp down and it’s holding up great.

Sierra Trading Post has a couple different levels of Marmot, and some Sea to Summits that look interesting. If you could grab a coupon off this site, and if the coupon is good for those bags, they might be a pretty good deal......
