Has anyone got the new Trakker 365 Camo ?
I like the look of the extra room for your feet, being 6'4” I fill most bags so laying stretched out can be uncomfortable on the feet

If its below zero I would take a cover too,I love my fortis bag but I've now put a snugpak jungle blanket between the layers of the bag.It certainly helps give the extra warmth that might be needed by some

I find the Fortis/Snupak bag to be plenty warm enough throughout the winter with the top layer on. Wasn't much of a test last winter as it didn't get that cold, but previous to that did many sub zero nights and never felt cold.

The Snupak insulation is very good. It heats up quickly and retains the heat well without the bulk of the fishing brands. Same goes for the SJ9 jacket, really really warm and packs down small.

Cheaper than a bedchair cover,more uses too.I sit outside with mine wrapped around me and then fold it up and pop it between the two layers of the bag.It works perfectly and makes the bag even warmer

Agreed, ill see how I get on this weekend and will consider this as an option, always after a cheap solution, bed chair covers are so expensive for what they are.

Well happy with my fox ventec, got it last year, think it was end of the line version as got it cheap from outlaw pro and not sure if newer versions have been released.

I have a snugpak techlite ,I like it ,works well ..

A little mention ,I don't keep mine in a bedchair ,nor in the supplied compression bag .
I bought the snugpak 40 litre 'Air escape 'dry bag this is because I don't want to get it wet ,nor do I wish to damage the loft properties of the bag by keeping it tightly stuffed or rolled up

The dry bag allows the techlite to expand when opened ,thus safeguarding the loft ..it was a good purchase that dry bag.

Add a Snugpak fleece liner (£40) to most half decent sleeping bags and you have a 5 season without the bulk and expense. I leave mine inside the sleeping bag and it adds no bulk whatsoever.

Yep do exactly the same with my techlite bag it lives in a non compressed 40ltr long dry bag. So much better in my opinion than a standard stuff sac. I only compress it down for short periods when transporting to or from the lake

I ordered the Trakker it was delivered yesterday, must say I'm impressed.
It fits my Solar bed very well, I really like the way it attaches to the bed.
Very easy to swap the inner bag round, I prefer the silky side, I'm a big bugger and find the fleecy side sticks a bit so is a pain when you roll over.

Obviously the real test will be out on the bank in the cold, but hopefully be out for a session soon.

Reviving this again fellas, looking ahead for the colder months. Is the 365 still up there with the best, or anything similar price that anyone really rates? The extra foot room sounds like a good one for me as also feel restricted with my current older Trakker 3-season bag.

fox ventec as for winter for me, super toasty and i like that it pull all the way up over my head to the top of the bed if you want to...reversible so can have fleece or smooth lining inside..great bit of kit and really rate it.
Are you sure?

This action cannot be undone.

Yes, continue
