Coleman 0°F Mummy Sleeping Bag for Big and Tall Adults Review

Coleman has been a trusted name in camping for decades, and this cold weather sleeping bag is warm enough to keep you comfortable in temperatures as low as 0° Fahrenheit. Mummy-style sleeping bags are ideal for cold temperatures, because the smaller size of the bag, and greater conformity to your body, allow the bag to use your body heat more efficiently, keeping it close to your skin.

This sleeping bag is big enough for adults up to 6 feet 2 inches to sleep mummy-style, with a semi-sculpted hood and draw string to further seal in heat and prevent drafts. Made with high-quality materials from head to toe, and available in olive or orange, this is a great sleeping bag for cold weather camping.

Coleman 0°F Mummy Sleeping Bag for Big and Tall Adults – Buyers Guide

Who Is It For?

This sleeping bag is an excellent choice for cold weather campers and climbers, who face rough weather and freezing temperatures, and need a rugged sleeping bag rated for extreme cold. It’s also a good choice for big and tall outdoor enthusiasts, who have trouble being comfortable in a smaller sleeping bag.

What’s Included?

The Coleman 0°F Mummy Sleeping Bag comes with a convenient carrying bag for easy portability and storage.

Overview of Features

The Coleman 0°F Mummy Sleeping Bag has a number of key features:

Large size

This sleeping bag is able to accommodate most people up to 6 feet 2 inches in height. When stuffed in the included sack, it measures 20 x 10 inches, and weighs 5.8 pounds.

Mummy style

The mummy shape improves thermal efficiency and reduces the overall size of the sleeping bag.

Warm construction

This sleeping bag has a quilted body, insulated footbox, and a thermo-lock draft tube along the zipper for warmth and heat retention.

Rated to 0° Fahrenheit

It’s warm enough for even extreme environments.

Two-way zipper

You can unzip from the bottom for more breathability in warmer weather.

Semi-sculpted hood

The hood can be tightened with a drawstring to seal heat inside the bag and prevent cold air penetration.

Durable

It has a polyester ripstop cover and polyester lining for durability and protection.

Quality zipper

Coleman’s ZipPlow system prevents snagging by moving fabric aside in both directions as it zips

Easy to clean

This sleeping bag is machine washable for easy cleaning and care.

How to Get the Most Out of It

Mummy-style sleeping bags are a great way to make the most of your body heat in extreme cold temperatures, and also take up less room when packed than rectangular sleeping bags. However, they aren’t a great choice for sleepers who move around a lot at night and need extra room for leg movement.

Campers who are comfortable with restricted leg movement and tucked tightly into a hood can manage even very cold temperatures in these sleeping bags. However, campers who are taller than the height limit, or who need more foot and leg room, should opt for a taller, wider style of sleeping bag to manage extreme cold.

Alternatives

Campers who are big and tall, and need even more room than the Coleman 0°F Mummy Sleeping Bag for Big and Tall Adults has, may want to consider the Tough Outdoors All Season XL Mummy Sleeping Bag. The Tough Outdoors All Season XL Mummy Sleeping Bag has a few more inches of room than the Coleman, measuring 88 x 34 inches instead of  82 x 32, so it can accommodate people up to 6 feet 6 inches in height to sleep mummy-style in extra warmth. It also has an internal pocket for secure overnight storage of your phone and other small personal items.

Despite being larger in capacity, Tough Outdoors All Season XL Mummy Sleeping Bag compacts down to a smaller 18 x 11 inches, and weighs 5 pounds. That is because it has less insulation than the Coleman, and is only rated down to temperatures of 20°-50° Fahrenheit, with an extremely low 10°, unlike the Coleman, which is rated down to 0° Fahrenheit. It also can’t be unzipped from the feet, unlike the Coleman.

For campers who are taller than 6 feet 2 inches, and who won’t be battling extreme cold temperatures, the Tough Outdoors All Season XL Mummy Sleeping Bag is a great alternative.

Conclusion

Coleman sleeping bags have a great reputation, and this sleeping bag is big enough for even tall campers to sleep comfortably through the night in extreme cold.
