    It's worth getting a bag that fits you. One that is too tight and restrictive will be uncomfortable if used for any length of time, while one that is too big can feel cold as the air inside may circulate freely.

    Every Mountain Equipment Sleeping Bag is specified to one of five different fits: Expedition, Mountain, Alpine, Valley, and GT.

    In turn, Mountain Equipment sleeping bags are available in either Regular or Long lengths, and women’s specific shape and specification in certain models. Women’s sleeping bags are shorter than the equivalent men’s sleeping bag by 15 cm/6 inches and also offer a marginally smaller footbox to suit smaller feet. They also come with EXL® stitching at the midriff which provides greater comfort, warmth, and an improved fit.

    Fit Description
    Expedtion 

    Wider and marginally longer than the Mountain Fit, the Expedition Fit caters for the needs of high altitude mountaineers and polar explorers who need to wear or store additional items of clothing or even their boots inside their sleeping bag.

    Mountain

    The foundation of all Mountain Equipment fit blocks, this semi-tapered mummy profile combines excellent thermal efficiency and comfort for all-round mountain use.

    Alpine

    Slightly more tapered in the upper body and in the legs than the Mountain Fit this fit maximises thermal performance and minimises weight for the upmost performance.

    Valley

    Providing the greatest possible room and comfort. The hood of the bag will accommodate a full-size pillow, and the bag’s main body profile will easily accommodate relaxed postures whilst the enlarged foot box gives extra wiggle room.

    GT ('Grand Tourer')

    Mountain Equipment's largest fit block, this is the Alpine fit but with every dimension increased by approximately 15%. It follows the same tapered shape as the Alpine fit but offers greater room for larger sleepers.
