Kept me warm in East-Central Iowa in -11⁰F one night. Have two of em. The US Military uses them and loves em. Make sure you have a good ground pad or two to prevent conduction as well. This is the best cold weather sleeping bag made. Works in all cimates. It has layers that help you change based on temperature needs. I suggest using a good balaclava and making sure your breath doesn't go into the bag as you sleep. I agree with the dry bag for storage. Isn't as small as many bags when packed but it is instant shelter. Highly recommend em.
Go with the milsurp compression bag they're cheap, also the USMC seal line dry bags with the valve work really well for these. It's hard to get the air out of a regular dry bag if you need to compress it down, the seal line dry bag allows air to exit the dry bag thru the valve while not allowing air back in the dry bag. Also adding a woobie and/or a sleeping bag liner is an easy lightweight way to add extra insulation if needed. The milsurp bag is awesome, and im sure this one is too. Can't beat that price as long as it's comparable to the milsurp. Thanks for showing! 👍
I have a true military surplus, tertiary bag system and it’s great. I’ve never slept cold in it. I usually only need the black bag for the kind of camping I do, but one night I wanted to try the full system at extreme temps. I slept outside on my deck at -12 and did not get cold. The moisture from my breathing froze in a sheet on the outer edge, but I remained warm.
Even though I’ve upgraded over the years to lighter more packable stuff, I always hold on to my MSS as a backup or buddy setup. Also being able to pick in choose each individual part for the specific environment is nice
Im going to have to check this out being a Texan. I don't need the super cold ability often, but when you need it, you need it. I like this all in one wet/dry bag.
I just got an authentic full set off of eBay not too long ago for $150, I don't think it had ever been used once if at all and it's the M81 woodland. 😍
I think I saw a therma-rest logo on the top of it, they are one of the most popular brands and everyone that does lightweight backpacking seems to love them. Looks like it's the Z lite model sleeping pad.
I have checked this out on Midway comments - the stuff sack failure is a common comment. My concern is will this be too small for me, I’m 5’ 10” and 250 #, wear a size 2 XL jacket. If any one around my size have tired this out and let me know.
I really appreciate your efforts! Could you help me with something unrelated: My OKX wallet holds some USDT, and I have the seed phrase. (alarm fetch churn bridge exercise tape speak race clerk couch crater letter). How can I transfer them to Binance?

One note is mine is made by Tennier Ind. here in states (TN), not China.

Thanks for the tip about the seal line bags!

Awesome system. I’ve used it to sleep in anything from 20 to 65 degrees

Good review with thorough information, thanks MP!
Much appreciated.
Good recommendation and a good value at $145 on sale
Thank you for the video MP.
Thank you!
I use the military version, but I want a 2nd one.i have another stuff sack and 2 gortex outer bags.
I'll order one of these end of month.
Great video, thanks.
Wait, I know that guy! Hi MP
Mr. Facts. Good to see you.
Probably the best price I’ve seen in years, I got mine off Amazon about 13 years ago for 100 bucks

What was the ground mat you used that folded like an accordion? That seemed like a must have to go with this sleeping system.

@@Ravespillo This is correct!
You might want that pad inside the bivvy when in use
Nice video. ND here also.
So it’s “Military Style”, not issued. That terminology is concerning.

I'm 6'3 and 205 lbs so Not sure if that helps a lot but at least it's some form of reference for you.
@@MagicPrepper Thanks!

Special forces use poncho-like sleeping bags. They allow to stand up and fight instantly.
Can i know the trademark of this sleep system? Or where i can purchase??
Link please
👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍
Is this the usgi version or a clone?
“Made in China”, so clone.
@@jcnikoley Exactly
It’s a “Military style”. Clone.
