Tall people sleeping bags?

[chukar_chaser]

What recommendations do you all have for taller guys?

 

[WeiserBucks]

Simply buy one appropriate for your height.

One appropriate for height but I'm 6ft6/6ft7 and around 100-115kg and have had great success with my WM Badger

We've used the Kifaru Gen 2 bag for tall sizes with good luck. I also sometimes use the very largest quilt that EE makes with good luck. I'm 6'7".

I’m 6’5. Stone glacier Chilkot or Western mountaineering Sequoia.

Tagia Works. Great sleeping bags, several size options, made in Canada.

How tall and what is your budget? I am 6’5” 260lbs - “huscular” build. It took me a few years but have found some I really like. If weight is a consideration I really like Nemo’s hydrophobic down bags. I have a stalker, kaiyu, and disco. They all are very comfortable. If weight isnt an issue, the Klymit KSB 0 hybrid XL is a beast of a bag. Tons of room and reasonably priced. If you want something for basecamp, the Kodiak Canvas bag is the freakin bomb. I take that elk hunting every year and have never been cold.

I'm 6'6" and mid 250's. I have a western mountaineering, stone glacier chilkoot and the sitka aerolite bag. Oh and a nemo sonic? I think? 15 degree bag. I fit in all of em fine. All of em are a little short.

I guess that's kinda the name of the game at this height. They are big enough to be comfortable but another inch or 2 in length would be great.

I have a Big Agnes Hog Park 20'.
No problems whatsoever.

What conditions are you going to be using it. Winter in a wilderness days from civilization, or camping on day type excursions. Down or synthetic? Budget?

I’m 6’5” , 225. WM badger in 6’6” length. Fit comfortably .

As others have said, your hunt conditions, hunting style, and height/weight would help us help you…

Are you Manute Bol and like to hunt late season high altitude? Or Muggsy Bogues rocking archery in the desert?

Note: I knew a guy who was 5’3” and called everyone “little guy”.

The amount of times I've heard someone who's 5'11 or 6'1" Say "I'm a pretty big guy" ....

How about for a guy that is 6'6" and a muscular 290# with size 13 feet? I have yet to find something warm, lightweight, and doesn't make me feel like I'm in a body bag. Thinking a quilt system might be what I need.

same height for me. I got the extra long quilt from UGQ. really love it, plenty long, great value

 

[GiantGreg]

6’9”
250#
I got a mountain hardware Lamina . It’s ok. Used it past few years. It has some really nice features. And was my only option I could find other than quilt at time. Probably wouldn’t recommend. Not a great zipper and it’s snug. Also I like to sleep on side. So
I got a enlightened equipment revelation but not had a chance to use it.

I’m 6’8” 280lbs I have a WM badger in there longest option and I have plenty of room. I wish it was a touch wider but it fits as it’s supposed to. It would easily accommodate someone even a few inches taller then me.

I’d think it would be hard to find a quilt that will keep you as warm as a bag. My feet are size 16 and wm badger seems fine for me
