Mountain Hardwear

Lamina Eco AF Sleeping Bag: 15F Synthetic

Almost there

I so, so wanted to love this bag, and I really do appreciate Mountain Hardwear upping the game of synthetic sleeping bags. And I will say, the bad itself is comfy! However, it’s definitely well over 3 lbs (and I bought the petite) and takes quite a bit of effort to stuff in my backpack.

I really wanted to love this bag, but...

The quality of this bag is excellent, as is the zipper, etc. and love the idea of an ECO friendly bag, problem is it is brutally tight in the shoulders. I am not huge at 5'-8" and 22" chest, but I cannot even zip this up. Maybe a fluke from the manufacturer. So it went to my 10 year old, she loves it.

Bikepackers dream!!

Simply Amazing, get one! I needed a failsafe synthetic cold weather bag for mixed conditions and landed on the 15 degree Lamina Eco. Its soft and supple, incredibly comfortable, the color reminds me of luxury hotel bedding which gets your mind right for how you will sleep. Pleasantly surprised by how small it stuffed on a recent trip, only took about half the volume of my handlebar bag. . Never felt damp or clammy even when my clothes were damp, warm and comfortable down to 30 degrees on a recent trip.

Super Awesome Bag

Its way warm, and packs down pretty small. What more can you really ask for? I definitely recommend the lamina to everyone looking for a good three season bag.

After several trips this bag has proven to be the best bag we have owned. Light weight, 2.5 pounds is pretty light for a 15 degree bag. Compresses much smaller than expected giving you extra room in your pack. The white is easy to keep white so far. So warm but no hot spots or cold spots. Zipper could be easier to pull but its not bad and it does not hang up on the surrounding fabric. Worth $279.00, we bought three and we all love them. Its a pretty perfect bag.

Amazing Synthetic Bag

Honestly could not be happier with this purchase. I have used it on 2 shorter backpacking trips now (2 and 3 nights) and I love it. It packs down incredibly well, regardless of it being a synthetic bag, and its a good weight for a 15 degree bag in this price range. My buddy on one of the trips had the mountain hardware rook 15 degree down bag and this one was just about the same size when packed down. We also got rained on one night when a storm came in unexpectedly and our rain fly was off, so I was incredibly happy to have a synthetic bag as everything in the tent got soaked. And even when both me and the bag were wet I still stayed plenty warm! I saw some reviews saying the bag is too tight, but even being a big guy I haven't had issues with it. Its a mummy bag so it is a little tight, but honestly it just feels like I'm being swaddled when I sleep which is amazing. The material is incredibly soft and comfortable as well. On top of all the amazing things about this bag, its also ~more~ eco friendly, which was a HUGE selling point for me! No matter how sustainable the down is sourced, synthetic is still going to be better. The recycled material is good for peace of mind, and the fact that they didn't dye it is awesome! Also I love the white. Even though it will certainly get dirty, each stain will carry a memory which I like. I 100% recommend this bag.

Best lightweight bag on the market

We purchased 3 of these a month ago, two large and one regular. We tried them out last weekend when we had the cold snap here in the Northern Arizona Mountains at 7,000 feet plus. It was 37 degrees, far from the rated 15 but a test none the less. In a single wall tent on a r2.1 pad, we were all extremely comfortable. No sweating from being too warm, no sense of cold. The second night we left the tent flaps open just to see if it mattered. It didn't. we were safe and warm with the draw string somewhat taught inside our beautiful new Lamina 15 eco's. Only warning, they are snug in the shoulders but not too tight, 46" chest doesn't fit everything, if you are bigger than this, size up. The foot box is roomy and stays at a perfect constant temp. The entire bag stays warn.

A little snug for the XL people.

It’s a great bag for sure! My only complaint is that I’m a bigger guy at 6’1” 240lbs and it is definitely snug around my chest/shoulders. I ordered the biggest one available.
