Work backwards<br> * Q & A – We answer your questions about sleeping bags.<br> <br> Pro Tips:<br> In an 80% relative humidity environment, an untreated 15-degree down sleeping bag loses up to 30% of its loft over a period of eight hours. A 30% loss of loft essentially turns a 15-degree sleeping bag into a 30-degree sleeping bag. DriDown™ sleeping bags avoid this loss of thermal efficiency by retaining 98% of their loft.<br> Hang your sleeping bag up by the loops on the foot of the bag in a dry place out of direct sunlight.<br><br> This allows the insulation to be fully uncompressed while your bag is in storage and ensures a long life for you bag.<br><br> If you’re short on space, lay your bag under your bed so it stays fully lofted and out of your way.<br> Huge thank you!
