[QUOTE="jmden, post: 653628, member: 1742"] One of the reasons I purchased it is that it is slightly larger in the shoulders than most bags of this weight and I tend to have trouble in this area in bags that are too narrow. It feels great to me. I looked at numerous other bags: Feathered Friends, Western Mountaineering, Mountain Hardwear, etc. [url=http://www.outdoorgearlab.com/Summer-Weight-Down-Sleeping-Bag-Reviews]Down Sleeping Bags - Warm Weather Reviews - OutdoorGearLab[/url] Was able to try out the FF bag, but even in a larger size it was too constricting in the shoulders. After ruminating on this decision for well over a month, I decided that all things considered most important to me, price included, the Marmot Hydrogen was the bag I was looking for. The Marmot Helium appears to be a warmer, heavier twin to the Hydrogen. Same fill, same shell. I've got FF -30F bag, TNF15F and 20F bags and a heavier MH 32F bag, but was looking for the most lightweight, comfortable, hi-quality down, water-resistant shell, reasonably priced bag out there and eventually settled on the Hydrogen. It's meant for super lightweight solo backpack hunting and it should work great for that. [/QUOTE]
