Phantom Sleeping Bag: 15F Down

Nice and warm - and quite snug!

Familiarity:

I've used it several times

Size Bought:

Regular

Got this as a replacement for an *old* polar guard synthetic 15 deg bag I’ve been lugging around for a couple decades. Took it elk hunting, but ended up with super warm nights (lows of 55). Though I didn’t test the temp, I can say that this packs tiny and runs real snug. I’m 5’10, 205, with 44 in chest and there’s not much real estate inside when she’s all buttoned up. Slept great, even in warm weather. And it did well handling a small sprinkle while sleeping under the stars (no tent). I believe this is a 58” chest bag, and a 60” would have fit much nicer.

Cozy

Great price, haven’t had a chance to use it outside yet but seems legit and very light. And my dog loves it.

Warm yet light sleeping bag.

The Phantom 15 sleeping bag is super comfy, but light in weight. Great construction details and included stuff sack makes this a great buy!

Too narrow in Shoulders for me

I Understand that this is a performance bag, but for a few more ounces I would prefer to be more comfortable and not wake up with shoulder pain and numb arms. I think having an option for a wide and regular cut would be nice. That said, the quality and design of the bag in general is phenomenal, pretty much what I expect from Mountain hardware.

No estoy satisfecho con mi compra

Compré una bolsa de dormir Phantom 15 grados y en los 45 grados pase frío por 2 noches, así que pienso regresarla

excellent, as advertised

Got the perfect shakedown of this bag in the low 20s recently and it performed exactly as advertised. It got a bit damp in the evening (don't ask) and I slept with damp ski boot liners and gloves, and was still warm all night. The dimensions seem accurate, which is to say a wee bit crowded sleeping with a bunch of gear, but it's not expedition cut, and this is what helps make it super light. Packs down super small with a quality included compression sack. Hits the mark for light, warm, and high quality.

Awesome

Have used it camping for the last 2 weeks straight. Temps have dipped to -7 Celcius and I’m still sweating in there at times. Rating is accurate - starts to get uncomfy at -10,but even then you’re fine with a warm layer or two to push it farther. If I had one complaint, I’d say leg room is tight -but for someone on the thinner side I’d imagine it’s perfect.

Excellent

Soft, light, and kept me warm. I used it so for for a 3 day back pack at Joshua tree and teps dipped into the 30's and I woke up sweating and had to unzip and take off some layers

WOW!!! So light and so warm!

Been using this bag in some super cold temps for mountaineering (10-14k+). Was originally worried about getting a 15 bag but this thing is perfect. So light weight and keeps me warm in the bitter cold out here in Colorado.

Great Bag! Its light & warm

This is my 3rd Mountain Hardwear sleeping bag. I have a Ratio 15F/-9C I purchased about 6yrs ago which is still great. I purchased this bag so I could bring more than one kid with me on backpacking trips. I've used it 2x this season and its worked out great. We just did a couple nights up in Tahoe National Forest in the Island Lake area. Temps came down on the second night, but felt perfect in this bag. Some friends got cold, but this bag was great.
