About this deal

I was really blown away by how small this got, making it a perfect camping/backpacking crossover bag. The roomy hood (with an integrated pillow pocket) is very puffy and cloud-like, and it cinches well without feeling overly restrictive. The “spoon” shaped design has extra room in the elbows and knees, designed especially for side sleepers like me and 70% of the population. The extra room in the bag means that I can add my fleece liner into it to use in colder weather if needed. Integrated pillow pocket allows a jacket, extra clothes, or Fillo™ to be stuffed into the sleeve opening for secure, elevated support through the night.

But unlike other ultra-premium down bags we tried, it also features spacious interior dimensions that provide superior comfort no matter your sleeping style. About this Review: This review is my honest opinion of the sleeping bag, which I purchased with my own money in June of 2022. There is an interior stash pocket, the "blanket fold" draft collar, and the trademark "Spoon-shape" that is meant for side sleepers.My body temperature is up and down when I sleep, so the Thermo Gills and two-way zipper were put to the test and passed with flying colors.

A fabric set of bluesign® approved 30D 100% recycled polyester ripstop and 20D 100% recycled polyester taffeta offers a buttery-soft, ultra-plush sleep experience. So we're delighted to see that the Hyperion's attachment system is designed to be removable, leaving the decision up to you whether the extra weight is worth the benefits.Sleeping bags do not generate heat; they only trap the heat we produce, so it is vital that you get into your bag when you are giving off warmth, don’t go to bed when you are cold, have a hot meal or a hot drink or do some brisk exercise to get you nicely warmed up.

A few manufacturers have done away with the pins, choosing instead to sew the ends of the zipper directly into the bags. Instead, I found the Forte’s pillow pocket to be absolutely perfect when I stuffed my down jacket inside. All the bags we tested include a regular stuff sack or compression sack for storing them inside your backpack. Furthermore, it is also equipped with Thermo Gills™ to allow you to regulate your temperature throughout the night in addition to an integrated pillow pocket, and a waterproof/breathable footbox to withstand tent condensation. Here’s a middle-of-the-night picture where you can see that even the heavier, less silky (black) fabric covering the draft tube gets stuck in the zipper.

This means it’s up to the manufacturer to decide how they want to distill the tested ranges into the naming of their bag.
