Real World Weight: 876gReal World Uncompressed: 29x13Real World Compressed: 17x15I have several Snugpak sleeping bags. I like the fact that they’re typically good quality, functional, lightweight and small. I particularly like the fact that they can get wet and still keep you warm ... and they dry remarkably quickly. My favourite is the Softie Elite 3, which I think strikes the right good balance between warmth, weight and pack-size.I’m not entirely sure about the Jungle Bag! I know that a lot of people like it, and I think that it’s OK, but it does have a few issues that it’s worth knowing about.First, in terms of warmth. The stated temperature range is 7C/2C (comfort/limit).I think that this is within the realms of possibility but perhaps a little optimistic. I would probably rate it as 10C/5C (comfort/limit). At 5C, I’d probably want to be dressed. But, I realize that these temperature ratings are subjective and everybody has different tolerances. Overall, I think that it’s a little too warm for hot heather (25C+) and a little too cool for cold weather (8C). I honestly think that it’s poorly named and I don’t think that it would be appropriate for a ‘jungle’ where it would be far too hot. For North Western Europe in summertime or Southern Europe in spring/autumn, I think that it’d be great.Looking now at design. I really like the fact that it’s a square rather than mummy style bag. It’s comfortable when used as a sleeping bag but can also be completely unzipped and used as a blanket – which is great. I have two design criticisms. First, the side and bottom zips are very small and tend to get snagged easily. It would be much better if the zips were a little chunkier. Second, the zip that enables the mosquito netting at the head is terrible. It’s a tiny thing and incredibly difficult to use when in the bag. It is doable, with practice, but it could be sooooooo much better if a larger zip were employed. I’ve read that this bag is used by the UK Armed Forces as a ‘hot weather bag’, but if this is true, I’m guessing that it’s a more ‘robust’ version – with better zips.Finally, weight and size. The overall weight of my Jungle Bag, when in it’s compression bag is 876g, which is quite a bit less than the 950g that Snugpak quote. That’s pretty light as far as I am concerned, and certainly comparable to competitor’s bags. There are lighter bags out there (such as the Trekker Superlite) but they’re not as comfortable or versatile as the Jungle Bag. In terms of pack size, the uncompressed size is 29x13cm and the (real world) compressed size is 17x15cm (Snugpak claim 18x15cm). I think that’s awesome. This easily fits into the bottom (or top or side) of a pack.Overall, I think that the Snugpak Jungle Bag is “OK”. I use it quite extensively in summer time in the UK when nighttime temperatures are above 10C and find it very comfortable.In the photographs, the bag on the left is the Snugpak Jungle Bag and on the right is the Softie Elite 3.

Overall a good bag. Stuff sack straps arrived damaged and gives the impression of poor quality, but the Sleeping bag itelf is as solid as can be despite it feeling flimsy.ProsRectangular design is nice - lots of room for my feet.Very light and packs down very small, this is why it gets 4 stars for me.Being able to open the bag up and use it as a blanket is a great feature for a hot weather sleeping bag.Cons,A bit claustrophobic if you zip yourself in tight with the bug net (6ft 3 and broad shouldered) Issue could be fixed with an expander panel but want to keep weight down - its not unbearable just a bit tricky to move about.The mosquito net - it rests against your face so chances are mosquitoswill still manage to bite through it but it is an extra layer of protection and its not just for mosquitos - you dont want to end up sharing with a scorpion! WOuld be great to be able to fully remove the mosquito net as when not in use it just gets in the way and I get tangled up in -Its not as warm as it says (though snugpack have their own rating system and is based on some one sharing a two man tent sleeping in full clothing.To date I have only used the sleeping bag in a hammock - put on a merino wool - t-shirt at about 4am. and when sleeping in a house where it was fine.

Extremely small pack size, smaller than expected. The pack size is less than half the size of the "Highlander Voyager Super Lite Sleeping Bag" sold on Amazon which is advertised as ultra compact.Quality. Great zips. Feels great. Silky.Be aware that this is ultra thin. It is the thinnest sleeping bag I've ever encountered. I used it while cycling Lands End of John O'Groats in August. It was just about warm enough, but I had to use socks to keep my feet warm. I wouldn't use it for anything other than summer in the UK and even then you should be prepared to wear base layers.I'm a big snugpak fan, but the temperature ratings of 7 for "comfort" and 2 for "low" are frankly ridiculous. I'm hot blooded,but I found this bag very cold at 7 degrees and extremely uncomfortable at 2 degrees. To be clear, this bag is cold at 7 degrees while wearing trousers and a thermal vest. I wouldn't use this bag unless I was expecting average lows of roughly 12 degrees [June, July, August].But in summary, it is a great quality option for ultra compact backpacking, though I feel that anyone sensitive to the cold will find this bag inadequate even during summer...

Good for hot countries or the height of UK summer. Snugpak's temperature ratings are pretty "optimistic" and don't follow the European standards of testing but go on their experience - fair enough as it costs a packet. A low comfort temp of 7C is pretty unrealistic for this bag. As a general rule, about 90% of a synthetic bag's insulation comes from the weight of insulating padding (hollow fibre of some kind). For a 2 season 10C rated bag you're looking at about 150g/sm of wadding so it's very hard to get that below a kilo - you have to use very light shell material and a mummy cut to reduce weight. This is not a mummy cut and the cloth is pretty strong. I'd say it definitely no more than 100gsm and possibly even less.Hood design can help a bit but IME this bag should have a 10C-15C rating and I think 10C would be pushing it pretty severely. So that gives you decent night in the Summer. As a foreign travel bag is brilliant but they don't have some secret method of producing a light synthetic bag warm to between 2C and 7C - ain't gonna happen and outside of the summer you're gonna be cold in the UK.

I've got several Snugpak jungle blankets and love them...warm, compact, windproof and versatile. I'm not a lover of sleeping bags as a rule, finding them a bit restrictive and bulky. After getting cold feet in my hammock where the jungle blanket slipped off them one frosty night, I decided to give the Snugpak sleeping bag a try. I'm glad I did! It can zip out to a large blanket or together to make a generously sized bag. It even has a zippable mosquito net that tucks into an integral pouch when not required. It's packed size is VERY compact for a sleeping bag and pretty warm, though some might find it chilly on colder spring and autumn nights. It is NOT a winter bag on it's own,but would work well with a jungle blanket on top. The inner surface is soft, non snag and comfortable, the zips are baffled and the outer is windproof. Recommended!

This is the second time I have purchased this sleeping bag (my last one got lost with my luggage at the airport), I have used this sleeping bag in East Africa and South America its great for warmer climates and the built in mosquito net has saved me from being eaten alive! It also works in colder temperatures than you would think, I used it in the mountains (very cold -3 to +4) and all I had to do was wear a t shirt and jogging bottoms inside the bag and i was fine, the bag is extremely compact and is much much smaller than your average sleeping bag saving precious weight and space inside your bag! highly recommend spending the extra money to get the snugpak jungle bag over any other!

My partner purchased this for me over 6months ago, im writing this review because it warrents my time, My snugpak jungle bag is OD, its a 1 season bag on paper, although ive used this in snow in the uk back in january with a baselayer inside an army bivvi, im 6.3 with a beer belly fits me an my clown feet well nice to have the room vs a mummy bag, this bag is light you could at squueze fit in large leg pocket, or better yet compress it in the provided stuff sack to the size of grapefruit this bag is insane value for money. oh yea the mosi net added bonus tho dont use mine.. snugpak jungle bag is a must for hikers, uk/worldwide preppers bob nutters.

Very quick delivery from the supplier; parcel was well packed. Sleeping bag has been purchased for a forthcoming trip to rural Laos and Vietnam; will post an update to this review after the bag has seen some proper backcountry use. However, first impressions are good - light, small pack size and looks to be well made. Mosi net is permanently attached to the "front" of the bag (not the hood - zips in to this) but rolls up neatly if not being used. Would be nice if the net featured some stiffening wires to keep it clear of your face - but will try it "as supplied".

This is an excellent sleeping bag; the square shape gives you space whilst the compact size and light weight make it idea for summer cycling or camping trips in the UK. On a recent cycle holiday around Mull, this along with a sleeping bag liner kept me warm when temperatures dropped to around 2-3 degrees Celsius overnight. It is easy to pack and dries quickly. Exactly what I needed.It also works pretty well as a bivy bag as I discovered when I forgot a tent -

It's a two season sleeping bag for use in late spring and summer. I used it abroad whilst travelling and it kept me warm. I haven't used the mozzie netting so can't comment on it's effectiveness. It packs to a small size with a compression stuff sac and weighs about 1kg, it easily fitted into my daysack. It also unzips and could be used like a duvet or joined to another bag, you'd need left and right zipped bags to join them together though.

I’ve had one of these for 14 years and used it all over the world. Compact, light and surprisingly warm. It goes EVERYWHERE with me, even on short hill walks. Admittedly I am a really warm sleeper, but honestly I have even used this as a 3 season bag in the UK. I usually sleep under it opened up as a quilt, but in colder weather I zip it back into a bag and wear the hooded primaloft jacket that I would be carrying with me anyway.

Very happy with buying this! Im walking the West Highland Way in the summer and we do a lot of other hikes too, so need a sleepingbag that is lightweight. This one is that. Folds out big and are comfortable to lie in. I was a bit nervous about how I would get it back into the bag, but me who usually have to try a million times did it on the first try. Delivery was fast too, got it 2 days before the expected date.

Snugpack this is an awesome nit of kit great for hot climates I've used it in the Uk summer and been OK and I take it on winter treks to as an over blanket to cover my main bag it's never let me down and packs so tiny I love it to bits and recommend it to anyone seeking extra warmth over there normal sleeping bag or to wrap around them on a cold night while sitting out tis a real jack of all trades I love it.
