    Re: My Slick Bag Opinions

    Okay, I think I might have an explanation: Were your foam pads INSIDE the bivy? With two pads inside, I think it is possible they take up enough space to compress the insulation of the Slick bag to...

    Re: My Slick Bag Opinions

    I am referring to my 0 Slick bag in my comments, I realize I never wrote that.

    Another thought: The only other 0 rated bag I have owned is a Wiggy's Superlight which I have since sold. It...

    Re: My Slick Bag Opinions

    I discovered with multiple uses camping and also just testing at my house for fun, the Slick bag is a 10 degree bag for me. What does that mean? With no overhead shelter (tent, tarp, tipi, bivi),...

    Re: Slick bag 0* wide/ reg length performance

    Hi, yes, I have wrapped my feet in a light jacket many times when camping. My best guess is that to get to 0 degrees comfortably in the 0* slick, I will need to wrap my feet with a jacket and wear a...

    Hello,

    I posted a review of the wide/reg length -20 Slick last winter and wanted to follow up with a brief review of the wide/reg length 0* Slick. I am doing this because I was on the fence about...

    Re: Slick bag question

    Yup, that's the other concern I had when I first tried the slick. Here's my trick with the slick - when you turn, hold the fabric in place with your hands as it would be held if the fabric was...

    Re: Slick bag question

    Definitely recommend the slick, once you get the hang of the zipper it is not a problem.

    Re: Slick bag question

    I don't think so. I have the 0 and -20, both wide. The slickbag is very unique in that it drapes with NO gaps, the lining will fill all voids. Also, there is a very thick, beefy draft tube for the...

    Re: PackLock parka - first impressions

    Another thought: Maybe these could be brought back, minus the whole Packlock line. Not that I wish the whole line be discontinued, but a great parka is always in high demand. Similar to how the...

    Re: PackLock parka - first impressions

    Put me on the list of folks who will be ordering an Arctic weight Packlock Parka as soon as they go back into production. From what I can tell it has been more than 1.5 years since these were...

    Re: Slick 40deg with a woobie temp rating?

    Ok, I have never tried a Woobie in the Slick bag, but I don't think I would like it and here is why.

    Re: Review: -20 regular length, wide Slick bag

    Spent another night in the -20 bag with lows in the mid 30s. I can confirm that I did not overheat or sweat, so this gives this bag an effective range of over 50 degrees (-20 to 35+). I will give a...
