The top-of-the-line Vesper has everything you could ask for in a lightweight quilt. It weighs less than a pound, and ratcheting down the included comprehension sack will get it to roughly the size of a Nalgene bottle. The 900-fill down insulation (more on fill power <a href=\"https:\/\/www.wired.com\/story\/what-is-down-fill-power\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">here<\/a>) was more than toasty enough for nights in the low 40s in the Canadian Rockies. The down is hydrophobic, which means condensation on tent walls shouldn&#8217;t be an issue.<\/p>\n<p class=\"paywall\">Your kids might not need a kid-specific bag (once they hit 4 feet, we say go with an adult bag), but for little ones, the Kindercone is great. It&#8217;s cut smaller so your kids don&#8217;t have to heat up a huge, adult-size sleeping bag to stay warm. There is no comfort rating here, but if there were, my guess would be around 35 degrees.

Therm-a-Rest comfort-rates this bag to 32 degrees, but I used it several nights in Michigan&#8217;s Porcupine Mountains in temps down to 25 and found it plenty warm. I really like the SynergyLink Connectors, Therm-a-Rest&#8217;s slightly ridiculous name for the nylon straps that secure the sleeping bag to the pad underneath. This, combined with the slightly wider cut, makes this one of the more comfortable bags I&#8217;ve used. This is the lowest price we&#8217;ve seen for this one.<\/p>\n<p class=\"paywall\">The Bishop Pass without the GoreTex shell is <a href=\"https:\/\/www.wired.com\/story\/the-best-sleeping-bags-for-every-adventure\/#bestbackpackers\">our favorite backcountry sleeping bag<\/a>. The main reason we don&#8217;t recommend this GoreTex model is because the outer shell isn&#8217;t worth the extra money, but with this deal you can get the GoreTex shell for $10 less than the price of regular bag\u2014what&#8217;s not to love? The Bishop Pass 15 isn&#8217;t perfect, but it strikes the best compromise for most backpackers, being warm enough for the shoulder seasons and light enough (2 pounds, 5.4 ounces) that you won&#8217;t mind it even when you barely need it in the summer.

They&#8217;re perfect for early morning workouts when the weather turns cool (or evening if that&#8217;s how you roll). These are 56 percent merino wool with the 44 percent being recycled polyester. The result is a lot more stretch than 100 percent merino would give, which is nice for running.
