Hammockers and Bivy Users Don't Purchase
By bre3058635
Ranked #232 - 55 to 30 Degree Down Bags
January 23, 2011
Just returned from the first and final use of this back for a long weekend in Joshua Tree National Park.
The style of zipper on this bag makes it virtually unusable for hammock or bivy sleeping. If you are like me and prefer a hammock, then don't get a bag with this center zipper design.
Bummer, because I really wanted this bag. I'd definitely purchase another Stoic sleeping bag.

What makes the center zipper so difficult for use with a hammock?
