About this piece

When warmth is just as important as packed size and weight, reach for the Benchmark 0°. High-loft synthetic insulation and a water repellent shell keep you warm and dry in any environment, while the traditional mummy shape increases thermal efficiency and provides enough wiggle room to create a cozy space for all types of sleepers. Keep those toes cozy and your pack light with the outfitter-grade Benchmark sleeping bag.
