Mountain Equipment Classic Eco 500 Sleeping Bag (-6°C/21°F)

Spacious and exceptionally comfortable, this versatile all-round sleeping bag is ideal for use throughout spring, summer, and autumn in temperate climates.

Crafted from recycled down and fabrics, the Classic Eco series represents one of the brand’s lowest environmental impact collections. Designed to deliver impressive all-round warmth and technical performance, the range features a generous Mountain Fit. These bags are highly compressible and perfectly suited for trekking, backpacking, mountaineering, and extended travel.

With a downproof outer and slanted baffle construction, the bag maintains optimum loft while securely holding the strategically placed 700-fill power down, effectively minimising cold spots. At the base, a two-baffle offset foot box keeps the feet insulated, while the hood incorporates a spacious five-baffle system complete with a drawcord collar to trap warmth, ensuring restful sleep across multiple nights.

On the inside, the tried-and-tested EXL® elasticated stitching system minimises dead airspace and drafts, while lifting the liner fabric away from the down, allowing for better loft and maximised insulation. A full-length Gemini™ entry zip baffle further protects against heat loss along this vulnerable seam. For added convenience and functionality, a low-profile magnetic Lode Lock™ closure and intuitive collar drawcords offer ease of use even in the dark.

With a Good Night’s Sleep Temperature rating of -6°C (21°F), the Classic Eco 500 serves as an outstanding all-round sleeping bag for spring through to autumn.
