Great Base Layer for sleeping or cool mornings

Written on Oct 21, 2020

purchased these bottoms top with the Men's Smartwool Merino 250 Baselayer 1/4 Zip Top for a baselayer for cool nights camping/sleeping. They are very soft and comfortable wearing them around the house. Decided to try them out first - setting out on the patio for my morning coffee at 36°F while reading a book - with only the baselayer top and bottoms and some Smartwool socks. Still nice and comfortable after 30 minutes outside. Cannot wait to use these while out camping. Was concerned about the sizing given I am 6'3" and 190lbs, 34" waist - and typically require larger sizes due to larger shoulders and longer arms. Went with the sizes recommended on the Smartwool sizing chart and they are a prefect fit.

Fantastic first use of the Riff 15

Written on Sep 18, 2020

Ordered this sleeping bag after a bit of research on bag options, size for a 6'-3" guy who runs warm to hot when sleeping. Really liked the heat vents (Thermo Gills), the head hood and neck opening covering (Blanket Fold). Being a side sleeper, the shape of the bag worked great. The head are has a nice pocket for a pillow that can hold a small travel pillow or even a blow-up pillow, but also has nice padding if you use a pillow strapped to a sleep pad underneath the sleep bag. The back also comes with a real/true compression sack - not just a draw string bag! Looking forward to more nights out in the wild using this bag!

Great sleeping pad for colder nights

Written on Sep 18, 2020

After much research and conversations about foam verses air pads, I purchased this air pad for my wife to help keep her warmer during the 20 to 35F nights. Worked well to help keep her warm and she loved the extra padding for comfort. After a 9.3 mile hike, 2000FT elevation gain and carrying a 25# pack, she was very happy to have the extra comfort of the pad. The pad packed down well to easily fit into the backpack. Lifetime warranty (with reasonable limitations) from Nemo was a big factor in Nemo's favor of the purchase.
