| Multi-day hiking | Lightweight, compact mummy bag |
| Bivvying in damp conditions | Synthetic bag or hydrophobic-treated down |

| Camping as a couple | Double sleeping bag or two zip-together bags |
| Child | A bag sized to fit them, limiting the volume they need to warm up |
Down sleeping bag: lightweight warmth and performance
Goose or duck down models offer an excellent warmth-to-weight ratio. They are ideal for hikers and mountaineers looking for compact, high-performing kit.
- Superior insulation and optimal compressibility
- Reduced weight (up to 20% lighter than a synthetic model)
- Excellent durability when properly cared for
Their only limitation: sensitivity to moisture. For wet conditions, it is best to choose hydrophobic-treated down or a synthetic model.
Synthetic sleeping bag: versatility and resilience
Synthetic fibres such as polyester provide effective insulation even when wet. These models are more affordable and easy to look after.
- Good insulation in damp conditions
- Quick drying and simple maintenance
- More accessible prices than natural down bags
They are perfectly suited to camping, festivals or hiking in temperate areas.
Ultralight and compact sleeping bag
For trekking or lightweight bivvying, weight is a key consideration. Ultralight models combine high-quality down with technical fabrics to keep the load down in your rucksack.
- Minimal weight and reduced bulk
- Easy compression into the stuff sack
- Optimised insulation thanks to differential fill distribution (denser on top)
Extreme-cold sleeping bag
Designed for winter expeditions, extreme-cold sleeping bags deliver serious insulation, often down to -30°C. Their mummy shape maximises warmth while reducing heat loss.
- 4-season models, suitable for snow bivvies and high-altitude use
- Insulated mummy construction and wraparound hood
- Recommended to pair with a high-performance insulated sleeping mat
2-person sleeping bags and zip-together bags
For sleeping as a pair, there are two options:
- Double sleeping bag: perfect for base camping, simple to use but heavier.
- Zip-together bags: compatible via left/right zips, allowing two individual bags to be joined as needed.
Child and baby sleeping bags
Children’s sleeping bags offer the thermal features of adult models in a smaller format (around 130 cm). This optimises comfort and warmth. For younger children, some baby models include suitable safety and ventilation systems.
Camping and hiking sleeping bags
Camping models prioritise comfort and space, while hiking bags focus on lightness and technical performance. Mummy, rectangular and blanket-style shapes let you tailor your sleeping system to your preferences.
0-degree and 4-season sleeping bags
Your choice depends on the minimum temperature expected. Sleeping bags are generally rated according to their comfort temperature:
- 1-season: summer use or simple sleeping bag liner
- 2-season: spring/summer, mild temperatures
- 3-season: versatile use down to 0°C
- 4-season: reinforced insulation for extreme cold
Sleeping bag liner and accessories
Sleeping bag liners add a layer of hygiene and comfort. In silk, cotton or fleece, they extend the life of your down bag and improve perceived warmth. You can also find pillows and sleeping mats in our bivvying department.
Care and storage
Proper care ensures the durability of your sleeping bag. For a down model, avoid frequent washing and favour spot cleaning. If a full wash is required:
- Use a specialist down wash at 30°C
- Dry at a low temperature with dryer balls
- Manually break up any clumps of feathers if necessary
For storage, keep the bag in a dry place and uncompressed to preserve its loft.

FAQ
What is the difference between down and a sleeping bag?
Down refers to a sleeping bag filled with natural feathers and down, making it lighter and more compressible. A sleeping bag can also be filled with synthetic fibres, which are more resistant to moisture.
Should you sleep dressed in a sleeping bag?
It is advisable to sleep in light, breathable clothing. Too many layers restrict the circulation of warm air and reduce thermal efficiency.
What is the best sleeping bag?
The best model depends on your activity: down for lightness, synthetic insulation for damp conditions, and a 4-season bag for extreme cold.
What is the warmest sleeping bag?
Extreme-cold down sleeping bags with high-end fill (900 cuin) provide the best insulation, down to -40°C.
How do you fold a sleeping bag?
Contrary to a very common misconception, the best way to fold it is not to fold it at all. Stuff the sleeping bag into its compression sack in a random way. This avoids creating pressure points in the same places every time you pack it away. For more detail, take a look at our guide: How do you fold a sleeping bag?
How do you choose a sleeping bag?
Define your intended use (camping, hiking, mountaineering) and choose according to comfort temperature, weight and insulation. In our guide How do you choose a sleeping bag?, we give you the key points to help narrow down your search based on your needs.
How do you wash a sleeping bag?
Wash at 30°C with a specialist detergent. Dry at a low temperature with tennis balls to aerate the down. For more details on each step, see our dedicated guide: How do you wash a sleeping bag?
Which sleeping bag for the GR20?
Choose a lightweight down bag with a comfort temperature between 0°C and 5°C for cool nights at altitude.
Which sleeping bag for bivvying?
Go for a 3- or 4-season model depending on the season and location. A compact, insulating bag helps ensure restorative sleep outdoors.
