Western Mountaineering and Feathered Friends all the way. Made in America. We've had WM bags for decades in storms and below zero cold and they are bombproof. Good tents too, to be fair, from Mountain HardWare. Remember though, on recommending brands, that the owners of brands have changed; sometimes the beancounters have taken the helm. This doesn't seem to be true at WM and Feathered Friends.
Mountain HardWare has been sold, and I have no idea of the quality of the products, compared to the originals.
So, it is worth looking up who owns the brands now before you decide.
