    Default Do they still make the Campmor sleeping bag

    So do they? They are not for sale on the website anymore. I spent so much time being meticulous about gear and buying up these expensive sleeping bags but I have found that it was all in my head. I had one at one time but I sold it off to buy something I thought was better. I am not saying that a FF or WM bag is not better, it's just that I am rough with stuff and I feel like an economical and functional bag like those fit my personality best. Does anyone happen to have a 20 they might want to sale??

    Campmor no longer makes the house brand 0F or 20F bags.

    The modern day equivalent is the Kelty Cosmic Down 0F and 20F bags.

    On sale currently at Cabela's (and other places)

    For a budget bag, it has received good reviews.

    I absolutely love the campmor bags. I have both 20 and 0. The 20 is far warmer and only a little bit heavier then the fancy North Face Dri Down bag I bought last year, and my campmor bag has well over 100 nights in it. Those bags were an incredible value for their price and its a shame they stopped selling them.

    Thanks guys. The kelty bags make me wonder sometimes about their product marketing. If they'd just quit putting stupid stuff on their bags and silly designs they would carry more weight with me. I understand they want to market to everyone and they've got to sale to the lower end I am just wary of cheap shotguns if you know what I mean. But I guess their bags are just as good as any. The difference between a 500$ bag and a 150$ bag cannot be that great.

    The main difference will probably be where it's made.
