Keep warm on your next outdoor adventure with DARCHE® Kozi Series Sleeping Bags. With options for all climates (-5˚C Green, 0˚C Grey and +5˚C Blue) and channel stitching for even warmth distribution, these soft touch bags have a plush feel and are generously sized for a comfortable night's sleep.
When you need to pack light, the pillow pocket sewn into the hood lining can be stuffed with clothes or towels to make a pillow, or zip off the removable hood and convert to a camper style sleeping bag.
With hanging hooks on base for airing and machine washable materials, these bags are easy care for families who enjoy getting outdoors. For added protection, attach the antimicrobial treated Kozi Series Sleeping Bag Liner (sold separately) using the corner loops sewn into the bag to keep it in place.
For those who like to snuggle up, two bags can be zipped together to make a double bag.
Happy camping happy bargain hunting
I've got the adult -5 bag.
Positives:
- It's a nice cotton-esque texture so there's none of the rustling noise in the bag that you get from most synthetic bags, it's nice and soft.
- The removable hood is nice for when you want to open it out like a quilt.
- Generous width
Downsides:
- Length. It says 2300mm long, but I dunno how much of that is the hood, and the width means the hood opening is pretty substantial, so it's not like you can pull it shut around yourself like with a slimmer bag. It feels way too short for me in practice.
I'm 180cm and this definitely isn't the bag I'd take if I thought temps were going to get into the mid single digits overnight. I used it for a night that was 6°ish and I had to throw a jacket on in the early hours of the morning. If you're on the shorter side it might not be a problem.
Shame, cause I like the feel of the bag otherwise.
