{"product_id":"snugpak-softie-elite-3-sleeping-bag","title":"Snugpak Softie Elite 3 Sleeping Bag WGTE","description":"\u003cp\u003eThe Snugpak Softie Elite 3 WGTE is an adaptable three season mummy sleeping bag rated to -5°C comfort and -10°C low. It is built for trips where the forecast will not commit: one bag that stays comfortable on a mild spring night and holds its warmth when the temperature drops below freezing.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe adapting is done by a deployable side baffle, sometimes listed as the Expanda Panel system. Zipped closed, it sits as an extra thick baffle behind the zip and keeps heat in. Deployed, it adds 12.5cm of girth at the chest and knee, taking the chest from 75cm to 87.5cm for room and airflow when the night runs warmer. The two way YKK side zip runs on anti snag webbing, so adjusting it in the dark does not mean fighting the fabric.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eFit adjusts too. The bag is 220cm long and takes users up to 190cm, and foot shortening clips fold away the empty space below your feet, which is where a too long bag loses its warmth. The foot section is internally reinforced so it can be slept in with boots on, the hood pulls in with an elasticated drawcord, and an internal valuables pocket keeps essentials on you overnight.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eSoftie insulation is matched with a metallised Reflectatherm lining that reflects body heat back at you, while the Paratex Micro outer adds water resistance and keeps the packed size down: 26 x 22cm at 1600g in the included compression stuff sack, with hanging tabs for airing it out afterwards. It comes in Olive Green with a left side zip.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eIf your nights regularly sit below -5°C, the \u003ca href=\"\/en-nz\/products\/snugpak-softie-elite-4-wgte-sleeping-bag\" target=\"_blank\"\u003eSoftie Elite 4\u003c\/a\u003e takes the same adaptable design down to -10°C comfort.
