The all-rounder, in two warmths.
- Best for
- G1: spring-to-autumn hiking. G2: frosty alpine nights, and cold sleepers all year.
- Think twice if
- Regular fits people up to 178 cm (Aegismax's figure), so taller sleepers should take the Lengthen.
G1: 380 g, comfort 3°C
A light three-season bag at 762 g with its sacks.
G2: 664 g, comfort −2°C
For frosty alpine nights, at 1,052 g.
A proper hood and draft tube
A 4-chamber hood, face muffler and full-length draft tube keep warm air where it belongs.
Warm enough for your trip?
Plan on the “warm to” figure: the maker's comfort rating or, where their labels are unclear, the safest of their figures. If you sleep cold, or you're not sure, add 5°C. And if you're torn between two bags, take the warmer one: a bag that's too warm, you unzip; one that's too cold, you can't fix at 2 am.
Compare it with every bag we sell- G1 Comfortable to about 3°C If you sleep cold, about 8°C
- G2 Comfortable to about −2°C If you sleep cold, about 3°C

bags and quilts are warm enough. They're sorted lightest first, so the top one is the lightest that will do the job.
Read the full guide: trips, safety and what else to pack
Plan for the coldest night
Hills, valleys and inland camps get much colder than the forecast for the nearest town. Check the overnight low for where you'll actually sleep.
If in doubt, go warmer
Being too cold at night isn't just a bad night's sleep. A long, cold night in a bag that's too thin can tip into hypothermia, and there's no fixing it at 2 am.
The mat matters as much as the bag
Down underneath you is crushed flat, so the ground steals your heat. Below freezing, use an insulated mat with an R-value of 4 or more.
Help the bag help you
Change into dry clothes, eat something before bed, and wear a beanie. A bag holds warmth in, but it can't make it.

“Warm to” is the figure we plan on: the maker's comfort rating or, where their labels are unclear, the warmest figure they publish. Temperature ratings on this page are Aegismax's figures, stated as rated to the EN 13537 method, we have not seen the lab report. Brands like Sea to Summit pay for an independent EN/ISO 23537 test; these makers don't publish one. So compare on fill weight and fill power first: they're physical quantities. How to read them
Complete your sleep system
A bag is half of a warm night. Here's what else makes it work, and what people usually add.
-
Inflatable Camp PillowAn 85 g pillow that folds flat and stays put on your mat.
-
Cotton Sleeping Bag LinerKeeps a down bag clean, and works on its own in huts and hostels.
A mat rated for the season
The ground takes more heat than the air, and down underneath you is crushed flat. As a rough guide: an R-value of about 2 for summer, 3 to 4 for three seasons, and 5 or more on snow.
A way to keep it dry
Wet down stops insulating. Pack the bag in its compression sack inside a dry bag or pack liner, and air it out when you reach camp.
Questions
Which size should I buy?
Are the temperature ratings lab-tested?
Comfort, limit, extreme: which one do I use?
How do I store and wash a down bag?
When will it arrive?
Will my order arrive in one parcel?
Will I pay duty or GST on delivery?
What if it isn't right?
Three numbers, in this order
Most listings lead with a temperature and a price. Those are the two least reliable numbers on the page. Read these first.
- 1
Fill weight: grams of down
How much insulation is actually in the bag. A listing that hides it is hiding the cost of the product. As a rough guide for Australia: 400–500 g is a summer-to-shoulder bag, around 700 g takes you below freezing, and 1,000 g is for snow.
- 2
Fill power: 700, 800, 850
The quality of the down: how much it lofts per gram. Higher fill power gives the same warmth for less weight and a smaller pack. It doesn't mean warmer on its own: 300 g of 800FP down is still a summer bag.
- 3
Total weight and packed size
What you actually carry. Compare it with the fill weight: a bag with 700 g of down that weighs 970 g is spending 270 g on fabric and zips, which is about right for a 10D shell.
Temperature ratings come last, and only once you know who measured them. EN/ISO 23537 means an independent lab test. Every rating in this shop is the maker's own: Aegismax says it follows the EN 13537 method, and Black Ice and Naturehike don't say. The FAQ has the long version.
- Free shipping Australia-wideThe price on the tag is the price you pay. No duty or GST on delivery under A$1,000.
