About this deal

If you're a mountain-loving wild camper, the temperatures up high during both spring and fall will probably demand more than your average 3-season sleeping bag. In this case, you'll really benefit from one of the best 4-season sleeping bags, regardless of whether they're filled with down or synthetic materials. One clear difference when it comes to 4-season bags is that they will almost always come with hoods and baffles. Rectangular bags that don’t cover your head might be fine during the warmer parts of the year, but in the winter you really need a bag in which you can properly batten down the hatches. That’s why winter bags almost always come with hoods that can be cinched down tightly around the head. As zips can allow for heat to escape, a good winter bag will also come with baffles along the length of the zip that seal everything in once it’s closed. A baffle will often be present around the shoulders to cinch down and tighten everything up, thereby preventing any heat from escaping through the night. Combine with a good sleep system

Insulation is undoubtedly one of the biggest drivers in decisions regarding winter sleeping bags. It’s what the bag is made of, after all! And ultimately, you’ve got two options: down or synthetic. The OEX Leviathan EV 900 has an impressive comfort rating but we wouldn’t recommend bivying in it (Image credit: Craig Taylor) Best dehumidifiers UK: keep your home warm and dry through winter, humidity low in summer, and reduce energy bills Delivered Monday to Saturday 8am-8pm, excluding bank holidays. Once despatched you will receive updates from the courier. One option I was considering was getting an Alpkit Skyehigh 900 + Hunka XL + Thermarest NeoAir Xtreme + Alpkit Masson sleeping bag liner, would this work? It might seem overkill but I don't want to get cold or wet.This bag is a gloriously cozy cocoon to nestle within and, with a comfort limit of -15°C (5°F), it is wonderfully toasty in all but the most Baltic conditions. However, it's limited to sub-zero use, as its elasticated expander panel allows the user to open things up, thus regulating the temperature inside. The Allied Down Feather in this sleeping bag meets the Responsible Down Standards (RDS). ETHICALLY PRODUCED. ENVIRONMENTALLY RESPONSIBLE. 100% SUSTAINABLE. Small: 10.6in x 6.7in / 27cm x 17cm; Medium: 10.6in x 6.7in / 27cm x 17cm; Large: 10.6in x 6.7in / 27cm x 17cm The OEX Leviathan EV 900 when stuffed into a dry bag with all the air squeezed out (Image credit: Craig Taylor)

Top quality bag and when you compare it to other down sleeping bags of similar spec and then compare the price its not only a quality product your buying but saving on money too.Of course, there's a caveat here. We wouldn't recommend getting into a winter-rated sleeping bag during a July heatwave, but hopefully this is common sense. However, with spring upon us, you'll still get plenty of use out of these toasty bags. The OEX Leviathan EV 900 is a lightweight and compact 4 season sleeping bagthat willkeep you warm intemperatures down toaround -16°C. For UK use, however, we think the bag delivers enough warmth to reasonably be considered a true 4-season sleeping bag, and we’re happy with its performance overall. We wouldn’t take it on a winter arctic expedition, but we’d be happy using this on practically any winter camping trip throughout the UK, and would only upgrade to something warmer if we were camping at elevation or in winter weather that’s uncharacteristically harsh (and cold) for the UK.

Weighing 1,370g (3lb), the Leviathan 900 is also reasonably lightweight, considering the temperatures it is designed for. And while there are bags out there that will deliver an equivalent level of warmth at a fraction of the weight, there’s simply no beating it at this price point. Made from extremely light and compressible Responsible Down Standard-certified insulation that’s been treated to repel water, this bag has several distinguishing features. OEX list this bag as having a comfort temperature of -9 degrees Celsius, a lower limit of -16 and an extreme rating of -39. They tested the bag according to EN13537 (which is an industry standard means of testing how warm sleeping bags are), and having used the bag for over three years, we definitely have some thoughts on these numbers (which we cover below). Zip caught inner baffle at bottom on first try, took almost 5 mins to free without causing damage, caught 3 more times trying to open or close.The Exped Waterbloc Pro sleeping bag is a 4-season sleeping bag designed with bivying in mind. It has 800 fill down, making it very soft and warm, with a Pertex outer shell that repels the weather.

Excellent loft. Nice soft outer & inner fabric, BUT so thin you can see the down through outer. Down comes through the inner onto you/your clothing, etc. Providing warmth and comfort on the coldest nights, this 4+ season mummy-shaped sleeping bag is filled with ethically sourced down for ultimate comfort and insulation. Perfectly suited to wild camping, global travel and off-season family camps, this down-filled bag will keep you warm and comfortable when outside temperatures go well below zero. Weighing just 1.34kg, the bag is a lightweight addition to your kit and comes stuffed with features that make your night’s sleep more practical and enjoyable. A four-season sleeping bag with hydrophobic down fill to keep you comfortable in hostile conditions.Overall a very warm four season bag of excellent quality which will be my main winter bag now. Very happy with this product. Snugpak’s polyester Softie insulation has been a mainstay in the British brand’s products for over thirty years. It utilizes superfine yarns bound together with special resins to mimic the properties of natural insulation such as down. The result is a really plush feeling bag that is easily warm enough for winter camping trips. Regarding the size of the bag, I’m 177 cm (5ft 10in) and find that the bag is plenty roomy for me. When it’s warm, I can leave the top open and not cinch everything all the way up. When it’s cold, I can hunker down into the bag a little more, tighten up the baffles and zip everything up full. I don't use sleeping bag liners as it's extra weight to carry all day for a bit of luxury in my opinion.
