Teton LEEF Lightweight Mummy Sleeping Bag Perfect for Camping, Hiking, and Backpacking; Cold Weather Option, Compression Sack Included

Picture 5’1” barely and it fits totally perfect for the Short sleeping bag! I would say that or shorter is great for the Short bag. Anything more it’ll be too short for you!I AM IN LOVE WITH THIS BAG. The 0 degree is very very hot in the house, fit me snug but not too tight, hood was perfect, zippers worked well so far, rolled up really nicely and fit back into its bag. 3.5# and definitely carry weight. I honestly love all of the details they put into this and the quality and design of materials is stellar! The lining seems solid, no concerns there. I have no doubt that it will keep me warm and dry no matter what temperature, even if it’s snowing, and will be functionable for all my sleeping bag needs! Even came with a 20% off coupon for some of their other gear! Definitely excited about this sleeping bag!

For the price, no other sleeping bag comes close to the Teton Sports Leef 0-degree sleeping bag. I'm 6-foot and broad-shouldered, and found the smaller Teton Sports 20-degree Trailhead bag to be much too narrow in the shoulders to be used as anything other than a makeshift quilt. To its credit, the Trailhead bag kept me warm, even unzipped for use as a quilt, when temperatures dropped to the middle and lower 40s ... but I can use the Leef fully zipped and there's still plenty of headroom to draw the hood tight. Like all mummy bags, the Leef is confining, but as a side-sleeper it still worked for me. I couldn't roll over WITHIN the bag, but it was easy to turn myself AND the bag to the side. Like the Trailhead, the inner fabric of the Leef is a brushed material that is soft against the skin; it never feels wet, slippery or slick. And, as you'd expect, this bag feels considerably warmer as suggested by the lower temperature rating. About that rating: Like almost all sleeping bag companies, Teton Sports' temperature ratings should be considered "extreme" or "survival" ratings -- not "comfort" ratings. To figure out the temperature at which a bag will still keep you comfortable, the rule of thumb is to add 25 to 30 degrees to the advertised rating. So, with the Leef 0-degree bag, I can expect to get a decent night's sleep at 30 degrees. (To Teton Sports' credit, they tell customers upfront to be mindful of the fact that their temperature ratings are "extreme" level, not "comfort" level.)Other things to keep in mind about this bag:THE ZIPPERS -- There are two on one side of the bag, so you can leave one at the bottom and then zip the other one all the way to the top, and then, if you get warm, you can open that bottom zipper a bit for some venting near your feet. The zippers work well, and snags aren't an issue. It's odd that they placed the zippers on the left side of the bag, however, since it makes zipping things up a bit more awkward for right-handed people.THE COMPRESSION BAG: It seems durable and perfectly sized for the bag, so feeding the bag back into it is easy enough. The fully attached compression straps do a good job of minimizing the overall size.OVERALL SIZE: Even in its compression bag, the Leef is still about 50% to 75% larger than the Trailhead bag in its stuff-sack. This means it won't fit into the sleeping bag compartment at the bottom of the popular Teton Sports Scout 3400 backpack -- but of course that pack allows you to unzip that compartment so it's not walled off from the rest of the backpack. Simply unzip that compartment and then drop (or rather, wedge) the Leef into the bottom of the Scout 3400 from the top opening of the backpack. You'll see it eats up close to half the 3400's available space, so if you're upgrading from the Trailhead bag to the much larger Leef, you may also want to upgrade your pack from the Scout 3400, which has a 55-liter capacity, to the Teton Sports Explorer bag, which comes in both a 65-liter and a 75-liter size. >>>UPDATE: The long version of the Leef sleeping bag is far too big to fit inside the sleeping bag compartment of even the 75-liter Explorer backpack, which is a real disappointment. I assumed Teton Sports would have upsized the sleeping bag compartment of its larger backpacks so they would accommodate the company's own larger-sized sleeping bags -- but they did not. I will still be able to haul the Leef inside my Explorer backpack by opening up the segregated compartment and inserting and removing the Leef from the top of the Explorer, but of course that means I'll have to take out EVERYTHING in the pack each time I need to access or re-pack the Leef. That's not something anyone would want to do in the rain...

TLDR; internal fabric was uncomfortable for me, and the short size was much smaller than anticipated (I'm 5'3, it's rated for folks under 5'7 and I barely fit in it). Despite using it incorrectly (as a sleeping quilt) because it was too small, it prevented me from getting cold in a 35° alpine storm. Would recommend, just make sure to get the sizing right and be prepared for a cotton interior.I want to start by saying I really wanted to like this bag. I was so excited to get it, it was my first nice backpacking bag and I knew it was going to be pretty chilly on our upcoming trip so I wanted to get a proper bag. I read so many reviews raving about it, and I was so stoked to give try it out.I ordered the short size because I'm 5'3 and they say the bag is 6'3 and for people under 5'7, so I thought it'd be a good fit. I was wrong 😞 I tried the bag out when it came and it just barely fit me from foot to head. Once in it, I couldn't move at all. Again, I was so excited by the bag that I thought I'd be able to make it work, so I decided to bring it on the trip.Our first night out, we were camping in a cloud so it was chilllllyy. I got in the bag and it was toasty, but the cotton fabric on the inside gripped my fleece leggings and sweater so I really couldn't move. I ended up getting claustrophobic, completely unzipped the bag and used it like a sleeping quilt instead. The second night out, we were camping at 5000 ft and a storm rolled through in the night. The temp dipped to 35°, with incredible winds and rain beating on the tent. The reason I say this is despite me not using the bag correctly, I didn't get chilled. Sure, there were points where I was absolutely not warm, but I wasn't shivering and I was able to get comfortable enough to sleep upon repositioning.The issues I had with the bag are like 75% on me for not doing better research or getting the bag earlier on for a car camping trip that I could have had a backup on in case I didn't like it. The fabric on the inside is incredibly warm and truly is just a preference thing for me! As for the sizing, I should have looked more in depth into the specs, and I recommend folks do it as well. The short size is probably better suited for kids than adults.Despite my issues with the bag that's causing me to return it, I still recommend it! It is a reasonable weight for backpacking, compacts and rolls super well (it fit in my 45L bag), and is super warm.

Absolutely love this sleeping bag! It’s super comfortable, warm, and perfect for chilly nights outdoors. The ultralight design makes it easy to pack and carry, which is great for backpacking trips. Quality materials and smart design—highly recommend for anyone looking for a reliable and cozy sleeping

Traveled through British Columbia in the late winter with this and didn’t get cold while camping on my way to Alaska
