  What Makes a Good Summer Sleeping Bag

  A summer down sleeping bag offers a slew of benefits, which make it the perfect choice for braving the outdoors from late spring to early autumn. Choosing a PAJAK backpacking summer sleeping bag from our selection of different cuts and designs ensures you will stay comfortably warm wherever you choose to sleep, be it wooden cabin, tent, or bushcraft shelter.

  PAJAK summer sleeping bags offer unique features designed to enhance the outdoor experience during the warmer months. The use of high-quality down filling not only ensures excellent breathability, which will keep you comfortable and dry on warmer nights, but also contributes to the bags' lightweight and compressible nature. This makes our sleeping bags an ideal choice for backpackers and travelers who want to minimize their load without sacrificing comfort or thermal efficiency.

  Additionally, every PAJAK warm weather sleeping bag has interior pockets, providing a secure and convenient place to store phones, valuables, and other small items.

  MUMMY Sleeping Bag for Warm Weather

  While mummy sleeping bags are typically associated with winter camping, PAJAK Core 250 and Radical 1Z mummy summer sleeping bags are crafted to also cater to outdoor enthusiasts who want to travel into the wilderness during the late summer through early to mid-autumn seasons. As temperatures begin to drop during these periods, the bags’ tapered shape and hood which prevents warm air from escaping, enhance warmth retention and further capitalize on down’s insulating properties.

  These sleeping bags are well-suited for bushcrafting adventures or less sheltered conditions, answering the need to conserve warmth even if the temperatures outside aren’t as harsh as during the winter months.

  BLANKET Lightweight Summer Sleeping Bag

  PAJAK's blanket cut summer sleeping bags are the staple of versatility and comfort for the discerning outdoor enthusiast. Their classic rectangular shape offers ample space, allowing users to stretch out or roll inside the bag without feeling too constricted.

  The classic design of a blanket summertime sleeping bag, which allows for it to be unzipped and laid flat, makes it perfect for doubling as a regular blanket to lay out on the ground or a duvet to sleep under.

  QUILT Summer Down Sleeping Bag

  Expanding the blanket sleeping bag’s design, PAJAK quilts are lightweight, hoodless bags for warm weather camping with a slightly tapered shape when zipped up, offering that extra snugness and heat retention when a blanket cut bag isn’t enough.

  What sets PAJAK quilt summer sleeping bags apart is their exceptional versatility. Filled with premium down and featuring an open underside, these bags offer additional airflow, which, coupled with their tapered design, ensures unmatched adaptability to temperature changes.

  Much like blanket bags, PAJAK quilt bags are designed to provide maximum portability and versatility. Whether used as a sleeping bag or draped over as a blanket, the quilt design is suitable for backpacking through the mountains, staying at a beachside campsite, or simply enjoying a starlit night in your backyard.

  Cold Weather Sleeping Bags - the Advantages of Down

  Down is the optimal, high-end filling used in warm sleeping bags. It offers a variety of advantages over synthetic alternatives that make it the go-to choice when choosing sleeping bags for adults about to face challengingly low temperatures.

  Down is renowned for its exceptional ability to trap body heat, ensuring unparalleled warmth throughout the night, even in the harshest conditions. However, down’s warmth-retention isn’t the only factor making it a superb choice. It is also a highly breathable material, meaning that while it keeps us perfectly warm even in cold, high-altitude camping scenarios, it also prevents perspiration from causing discomfort and disrupting its insulating properties.

  Lastly, the indisputable advantage of down is its low weight, compressibility, and reliable lofting. These factors are of paramount importance during exhausting climbs, reducing both the load and volume of our backpacks.

  Parameters - What to Pay Attention to While Choosing a Warm Sleeping Bag

  Cut, form, weight, and aesthetics are important factors to consider when choosing a suitable product, however, in order to ensure choosing the best sleeping bag for cold weather, we especially recommend paying attention to the following technical parameters:

  Fill Power - which is measured in cubic inches, often referred to as cuins, is used to determine the volume of lofted down used in the product. The higher the FP rating the higher the insulating properties a winter down sleeping bag offers. Hence, choosing the adequate level of Fill Power is of utmost importance as it will guarantee that our chosen product will offer adequate protection for the level of cold we expect to encounter on our adventures.

  Down-to-feather Ratio - displayed next to the fill power rating of a product, the down-to-feather ratio, represented as, e.g., 95/5, 90/10, etc. The numbers provided denote the percentile contents of down and feathers, respectively. Each backpacking winter sleeping bag is filled with a combination of both, as the feathers reduce the potential clumping of down, ensuring, in turn, greater loft.

  Temperature Range - marked as T-Comf, T-Limit, and T-Extreme, these parameters indicate the lowest temperatures in which women (T-Comf) and men (T-Limit) may still feel comfortable while sleeping, as well as the absolute lowest temperature (T-Extreme), in which the sleeping bag still offers some degree of cold protection for the user.

  To better portray this, we will use PAJAK’s most robust RADICAL 16H Winter Sleeping Bag, the ultimate choice for sleeping in extreme cold, which ensures comfortable sleep for women in temperatures as low as -31°C, for men -43°C, and the absolute lowest threshold ending at -71°C.
