Kelty Light Year 3D Bag

“REI has the Kelty Light Year 3D +30 degree Polarguard 3D sleeping bag on sale for $75 (reg $100).
2# 1oz and packs small (in the ad).
One of my friends is looking for a cheap bag.
Anybody got this bag? What's the REAL temp range? Opinions needed.”

“Stove -

I saw that in their Labor Day sale flyer and I was wondering the same thing. They rate it to 30 degrees don't they? That's not bad at all and it packs to 7 x 17" I think?

Anyone have any first hand knowledge of this bag??

Speak up folks!!”

“that's light but not that small. i got a slumberjack for $45 that is like 3#8oz & 25 degrees & about that big when stuffed. from campmore.”

“do down.”

“the weight is probably closer to 3# and synth bags are like lugging watermelons.If your not in a wet climate get down.”

“I got the REI Solo-lite at their last sale with 20% off for around $150 or so. SnowDude got the same bag, but a different color for $69. because it was last years model. Its a 25 deg bag, weighs 2 lbs, is down, and stuffs pretty small. It has the REI version of dry loft, so condensation or moisture doesn't soak thru. It stayed dry in Montana and Wyoming.”

“Answers, we need answers.”

“That looks good. I like the price and weight. Couple of things. If the rating is a little light, he could just wear a little extra while in the bag and he should be fine, within reason.

What conditions will the bag be mainly used in?

I noticed also that the online version only shows a right handed zip. This might be inportant depending what kind of tent he uses. With my tent, Hilleberg Akto, you have to go with a left handed zip. I had the same thing happen to me when the REI Shasta that I wanted, mentioned only right handed zip online. I went to the store, with a print out from the website and they hand the left handed zip in stock. It was the last one.

Good Luck!”

“I have the Down version. kelly lite year 25 degree. that bag weighs 2lbs and was awesome last spring!!”

“I was checking out their 25 degree down bag with a WB layer for $175 on Campmor. Looked pretty sweet at 2 lbs...”
