The Softie Elite 5 has a comfort rating of -15° Celsius so is suitable for use in extreme temperature conditions.
Expander Panel System (EPS)
Snugpak have taken their sleeping bags to the next level with the cleverly designed Expander panel System (EPS). With this system the jumbo zip baffle can be opened out to give much more room when required. This means that on warmer nights you can get between 10 to 22 cms extra sleeping space. This will allow the air to circulate and will stop you getting too warm. It also makes the Elite range the perfect choice for the larger person.
Warm with Great Loft
The Softie filling combined with the Reflectatherm layer, results in a really warm and comfortable sleeping bag with superb loft. The outer shell is made from Paratex Light which is windproof, and with the jumbo neck baffle to keep warm air in and cold draughts out you have the ideal bag for extreme cold weather use.
As with most military sleeping bags, it has a reinforced footbox allowing you to sleep with your boots on without damaging the bag. This could be very useful for hunters and anglers as well as soldiers.
The Softie Elite 5 is an extreme weather sleeping bag – sometimes referred to as a 5 season bag – and is very warm, making it the perfect choice for those who will be using their bag in extreme weather conditions.
