Lafuma Extreme 800 Sleeping Bag: 40 Degree Synthetic

Lafuma Extreme 800 Sleeping Bag: 40 Degree Synthetic

Rating for this product: 4 April 29, 2010

Haven't taken it hiking yet, this is just my impression from toying with it indoors.

It's cheap, it's light, it's small for a synthetic.

I bought this for a 6 day summer hike where I can assume I'll get the bag wet a few nights. It comes with a stuff sack, not a compression or storage bag. The stuff sack is small enough, and it's nice that the stuff sack isn't rock hard like a compression bag because it should fit into your pack better. The bag feels solid, has a nice glow in the dark zipper handle, and feels warm considering how thin it is.

The only gripe I would have is the supposed 6'11 user height. I'm 6'4 and I would say I max it out. You may be able to fit someone 6'11 in there but they would be stretching the bag and you wouldn't be able to use the hood pull cords. It is a warm weather bag so you probably won't need to be pulling the hood close around your face but even at 6'4 it's a little tricky to get enough slack in the bag that you can pull the bag close around your mouth.

For 90 bucks it seems like a pretty solid purchase.

The North Face Four Shadows GTX Winter Boot - Men's

November 10, 2009

What is the foot type that fits in this boot?
I have a narrow heal but wide toes. I fit in a narrow/normal boot that widens at the toes.
I have been successful with Vasque boots, but need a winter hiking boot that's insulated.

I'll update this some more after I see how the bag stands up to baggage men, but as far as walking around the subways and jumping on buses in the bag is great. Should strap is comfortable, and the padding removes that awful clanking sound I used to make when I smashed my board into the wall. I can easily fit a board, bindings, and my boots in the bag.
