Mine is 900mm top end and and 700mm ish bottom end.
So im in two minds now whether to sell it on or not and get the gardner compact bag or just go back to my goliath bag that's served me well for over 25 years.

Hmmm, not sure selling it on to some other poor chap is the one mate. Can you not send it back?

Oh know I wouldn't mislead anyone unlike Fortis, If sold the dimensions would be advertised as the size it is.

Email Darran Goulder at Fortis, email address on their site. Would be interested in what reply you get. I've just used the original sized 2nd hand Snugpack I bought and really do think it's great, so in the end I got what I wanted. Really don't know what Fortis are doing changing a good bag to a bad One, they told me that they had complaints that the original ones were too loose fitting, not heard that on here, so made them narrower, really don't beleive that as the originals are still tight fitting and would have been better with bigger, more elasticated top and bottom fixings.
My advice to anyone looking to spend £200 plus on this new bag is Don't.....unless you only use a compact bed, the bag is good but is not as advertised as they are now made narrower than the spec claimed.

Have they ditched the compact version, and just going with this new one size doesn't fit all?

I recently got one of the compacts for my compact bed chair, there isnt much room to spare but it suits me absolutely perfectly. Im very happy with it and use an aqua cover over the top if i need more warmth. Value for money? No but it is nice and small and fits into the bed chair when folded easily.

So are all these unhappy customers buying these bags directly from Fortis or via a tackle shop ?
I cannot see why a return in either scenario needs to a complex procedure.
Darren at Fortis has always been a very reasonable chap to deal with in my experience.

It's not an issue about returning them, it's an issue about buying them and then finding out that the product is not as advertised. If you're interested read from when I first posted as all is explained.

If you've got a compact chair still go for one, the bags are great but only for a compact bed as the shape and size has changed.

To be honest Snugpak clothing sizes are a bit of a lottery too
a mate tried on 2.. XL jackets at a show they were both different sizes ! one was loose and one he could only just do up !
