  • Nice pics.

    should you store sleeping bags not screwed up in their bag? Does it mess with down?

    Store them uncompressed. Mine came with a separate huge sack to store it in. Stops the down from getting perma-squashed.

  • Thank you :)

    I have had 4 +years of storing mine screwed up. Reckon it is fixable if I let it flesh out? I froze this weekend - had to sleep in all my clothes and it was a 3 season bag

  • Cold tumble dry with tennis ball may help re-loft a bit apparently. I have never tested this theory though.

  • Honestly probably not.

  • Best not to sleep in your clothes. The heat gets stuck in them and can't go into the bag so we'll. Put clothes on top of the bag if you need.

    I'd wash it, as said above. Then unpick the down clumps by hand this worked well for an older bag of mine.

  • I think I saw Alpkit will do a down refresh/restore service at their repair stations, might include the Bristol one?
