Feathered Friends Tanager CFL Sleeping Bag

The Tanager is designed to be paired with a hooded down jacket or a beanie. Because it lacks a hood, you rely on your own layering system for head insulation, which saves significant weight and bulk compared to a traditional mummy bag.

The bag features a specialized opening that allows you to slide in and out easily. It is designed to wrap around you securely, relying on the drawcord collar to seal in heat rather than a mechanical zipper.

Yes, it is rated for 20°F, but comfort is subjective and depends heavily on your sleeping pad's R-value and your personal metabolism. Because it is a minimalist system, ensure you are using a high-quality insulated pad to prevent cold spots from underneath.

Higher fill power means the down is more efficient at trapping heat relative to its weight. This allows the Tanager to provide the same warmth as heavier bags while compressing down to a fraction of the size in your pack.

The Tanager is designed for users up to 74 inches, or 6'2". If you are right at that height limit, the fit will be snug, which is intentional to maximize thermal efficiency.

The Pertex Quantum 7-denier shell is incredibly lightweight to save ounces, which means it is delicate. It is built for gram-counting thru-hikers and alpinists who treat their gear with care, rather than for casual camping where durability against abrasion is the priority.
