Big Agnes King Solomon 15 Degree Double Wide Sleeping Bag
MSRP: $449.95 1 of 6
This double wide sleeping bag is perfect for a couple's camping trip. Unlike many duo sacks, the King Solomon has a zipper on each side for easy exit/entry for both parties (key for those midnight bathroom runs), as well as an extra 5cm of foot box length for you tall folks.
A key feature of this sack is the integrated pad sleeve, which means you no longer have to wake up in the middle of the night realizing you have rolled off your pad and onto the cold, hard ground. This bag will keep you toasty in even the coldest conditions, and its center no-draft flap and no-draft collar mean even the most active sleeper will be kept insulated through the night.

It's inside cellphone/wallet pocket is a sweet little addition and comes in really handy not only for security, but also when you've got to answer that call but really don't want to have to leave your warm sleeping bag to reach your phone.

MSRP: $459.95 5 of 6
If you're headed to K2—or just like to look like you are—then chances are you're not going to balk at dropping this kind of dough on sleeping bag technology. Winner of the 2015 Backpacker magazine Editor's Choice Award, this whopping 850-fill cold weather sack uses adjustable "Thermo Gills" to regulate your internal temperature by as much as 20 degrees F without letting cold drafts get inside.
The stretch construction at the knee-area makes it possible to sleep comfortably in a side or knees-bent position, and the nylon shell has a light weatherproof coating to keep you dry in damp conditions. All of this technology still collapses up surprisingly small and lightweight, making this a great choice for the serious winter explorer.
