Hello all,
I recently purchased a Marmot Sawtooth Extra Wide Long...
the bag is awesome, very well put together, i really like the liner (feels good against the skin, compresses well, zippers dont snag that much, collar is well designed etc, etc.
the problem that i'm having with this bag is that even though i consider myself to be huge, 5'11 290 pounds, i wanted a big bag so have some breathing room. the problem is that this bag is entirely too big but i feat that the sawtooth regular isn't wide enough and the sawtooth long is just too long.
i bought this at REI so i know i can return it. i haven't even used it in the field yet.
my question is, for a 15 degree bag, would everyone prefer that the bag be bigger like almost too big for layering purposes like extending the usable temperature range?
or would you opt for something like the arrow rock flex from sierra designs that while having a big size range, is more form fitting?
i'm torn here and any advice will help.
thanks in advance,
Sebastian
