Introducing our Blue Goose Down Sleeping Bag, designed for temperatures ranging from -3 to 2°C. It's the perfect companion for winter camping, providing warmth and comfort in colder climates. This sleeping bag is lightweight, weighing only 1300g, and easily compresses to a compact size for hassle-free travel.

What Makes this Sleeping Bag so Good

The Downex 800 Plus is loaded full of features which makes it one of the best down sleeping bags around. It uses a combination of vertical and horizontal baffles to help ensure the down is positioned to generate maximum loft.

This lofting out creates pockets of warmth which rise to up to a massive 12 cm high. This puffy-ness is generated by the goose down which lines the pockets and expands pushing the shell sides apart. Warm air is then held between these layers keeping you warm.

Another important feature of these down sleeping bags is the build in draft tubes. These tubes line the inside of the sleeping bags zipper and block cold drafts from entering the bag. As well as keeping the draft out the also add a soft padded layer between you and the zip. The result is a more comfortable sleep.

To ensure smooth entry and exit from the sleeping bag high quality YKK zippers are fitted. There are two zippers so should you get a little too warm at night then  either zipper can be opened.

At the foot end of the sleeping bag you will find a square shaped foot area. This foot area gives you more room in the bag. Because of this the sleeping bag will not be squeezed. This squeezing can flatten the down reducing the warmth of the sleeping bag. The result is warmer feet.

Key Features:

  1. Optimal insulation: Vertical and horizontal baffles ensure even distribution of down, creating pockets of warmth.
  2. Enhanced loft: Goose down filling expands, generating a puffy layer that traps warm air.
  3. Draft tube protection: Built-in tubes along the zipper prevent cold drafts and add comfort.
  4. Easy access: High-quality YKK zippers provide smooth entry and exit, with dual zippers for temperature control.
  5. Spacious foot area: Square-shaped design prevents squeezing, maintaining loft and warmth at your feet.

Caring for Your Goose Down Sleeping Bag

Maintaining your goose down sleeping bag ensures its longevity and performance. Firstly, always store it uncompressed in a cool, dry place. Secondly, air it out after each use. Lastly, wash it sparingly, using a gentle down-specific detergent and a front-loading washing machine. For drying, opt for a low-heat setting and include tennis balls to prevent clumping.

Using Your Goose Down Sleeping Bag

For optimal warmth, fluff up your sleeping bag before use. Additionally, wear clean, dry clothing to bed. This helps preserve the down's insulating properties. Moreover, avoid eating inside the bag to prevent odours and stains. Lastly, use a sleeping bag liner to keep it clean and enhance warmth.

When camping in colder months, a winter down sleeping bag is essential. Firstly, choose a bag with a temperature rating suitable for the conditions. Also, consider using a sleeping pad for extra insulation. Furthermore, keep your sleeping gear dry at all times. Lastly, vent your tent to reduce condensation.
