- Montbell UL Spiral Down Hugger #3 Review
The UL Spiral Down Hugger #3 is the best sleeping bag I’ve tested for its weight and cost. For just over one pound, it is amazingly warm!
The Spiral Stretch design is one of those designs that you look at and think…why didn’t someone think of that before now. It is simple, lightweight, but also provides extra stretch, therefore comfort.
The 800-fill down gives a lot of warmth, without much weight. The fabric is soft to the touch and if you look closely it has very small rip-stop squares.
The hood adjusts with a simple push button lock. The zipper is almost full length, it stops about twelve inches from the bottom of the bag. A hang loop at the foot box makes drying it out easy. It comes with both a small stuff stack and a nice cotton storage bag.
In field use the sleeping bag is comfortable and warm. It packs down really small. The temperature rating seems right on. Montbell did a great job on this sleeping bag.
