Lafuma X 950 Pro Sleeping Bag: 30 Degree Synthetic - 2008 BCS

X 950 Pro Sleeping Bag: 30 Degree Synthetic

Flag This Close

Lafuma's X 950 Pro Sleeping bag hides warm 30-degree synthetic warmth in your pack, for three-season comfort in less-than-optimal camping conditions. The slightly increased weight penalty versus natural fill is a small price to pay for insurance against wet weather or a soaked backpack on your next outing. Lafuma's exclusive Ultramicro fiber insulation packs almost as light as down, but unlike down, it insulates even when wet. A full draft tube and shoulder collar seal out creeping cold air, and the X 950 can be mated to an opposite-zip Lafuma mummy bag, making cozy space for two.

Bottom Line: Synthetic doesn't translate to sacrifice with the Lafuma X 950 Pro Sleeping Bag.

Lafuma X950

By:
April 1, 2012

i've had this sleeping bag for 4 years. it has served me well. it can be a little chilly, but I have used his bag with a space blanket down to around 5 degrees. at one point the inside ripped, but thanks to backcountry's spectacular warranty i replaced it. I love this bag- it's compressible and lightweight. all around very versatile.

Light, compact, water resistant

By:
February 12, 2009

This bag is very light, and can compact in the stuff sack to about 5x5x5". Both the internal and external shell fabric are water RESISTANT, and most moisture will bead off if it's not pooling, this bag will retain your body heat if it does get wet throughout your trip. Hang dry for a couple hours in the sun in the morning and it should be good. Although it's listed as max user height 6', I believe Lafuma bags run a bit longer; I am 6'3" and fit comfortably lengthwise but this is a rather narrow sleeping bag; nice for retaining heat, not so much if you turn in your sleep. Good choice for fastpacking and sleeping under the stars.

Light and compact, but warm?

By:
February 20, 2009

I've been training for the Appalachian Trail for some time now, and I just can't seem to get the right sleeping bag. This bag works wonders when it comes to being light-weight and it compacts very well, but like all Lafuma sleeping bags, I was not entirely happy in the warmth department. I have a tendency to turn a lot in my sleep, and the bag did fairly well with keeping me warm, but my biggest complaint was in the bottom of the bag. Needless to say, my toes were freezing on both occasions when sleeping in the bag, and the temps weren't even in the 30s.

Pretty good

By:

Used this bag on a two week trip on the Long Trail in VT. It performed pretty well; however when the temps dropped to the low 40's and it was windy/rainy it was a bit of a struggle to stay warm. But, for the price (picked it up on sale) it's a pretty good deal.

Yes it is machine safe. I just washed mine. Use a laundromat front loading machine, it will not have an agitator in it like your home machine. Zip the bag closed. Use very, very, little detergent. Wash it on gentle cycle; and if it has an extra extracting cycle use that also - that is for getting out more water. Dry it in a front loading dryer on the low setting. Dry 15-minutes, then turn bag inside-out; dry another 15-minutes. Bag should feel dry to the touch, though it most likely will not be. Take it home hang it to complete the drying process - a couple of hours.

Light, but.....

By:
August 16, 2010

It was a joy to start a trip with a bag that only weighed 2 lbs 2 ozs. It was NOT a joy to try and sleep in a bag so tight I could not turn over inside it. Can't say for sure whether of not the temperature rating is good, but we were never in temperatures below 45 and I have my doubts.

Great for price

By:

I've had this bag out a few times. Great for compressability and weight. I'm not one to complain and I couldn't start here anyways. Good buy.

Light, but COLD!

By:
February 23, 2009

Just tested this bag in an unheated room in my house. Temp got to 55 degrees or so and i had on shorts and a t-shirt and was very cold! Will be returning and will try the Mountain Hardwear Ultralamina 32 Sleeping Bag as it is getting very good reviews. I wanted this bag to be my 3 season bag because I own a -20 bag that is awesome. I cannot imagine that this bag will keep me warm at any temps below 50.
