Hi
Looking to buy the fortis snugpack sleeping bag to go with my avid level lite bedchair.
I see the compact is about the right size, but I'm a larger guy at 6' and 18st.
Will the compact be to ‘snug' given my larger size.
I don't wanna drop £200 and have a bag to small or big.
Cheers everyone
Edit. Gotta love auto correct! Avid not Acid

I've had a Fortis Snugpack for a couple of years and find it spot on. I'm 6'1 and 17st. It's just the right size for me ;-)

So not the compact?
The bedchair is 200cm x 80cm.
Compact is 195cm x 80cm.
Std is 210cm x 90cm.
I guess the width won't be an issue a bit of sag!

They only slightly overhang which allows for better movement in the bag

Does the Fortis have a strap in the middle for securing to the bed?
Or only the elastic hoods on both sides?

Do not buy the compact... It may fit the bedchair but it will not fit the bed with you in it. I'd be surprised if anyone over 5' 8" gets on with the compact bag, turn over in the night and the zip will undo...

Best bag I have ever had, well worth the money, been lovely and snug when the lake has frozen 👍

Wish they would bring one out about 220 x 100 for wide beds.
