Temperature ratings are intended as a guideline to help you compare products, rather than a guarantee of warmth, since many different factors contribute to your comfort while you sleep. Our backpacking bags are rated for temperature according to an independent testing protocol: International Organization for Standardization (ISO) 23537. Testing is based on a person wearing one base layer and a pair of socks, sleeping on an insulated surface with a minimum R-value of 5.38.
Each bag then gets 2 ratings: the Comfort rating is the lowest temperature at which the bag will keep the average "cold sleeper" comfortable, and the Lower Limit rating is the lowest temperature at which the bag will keep the average "warm sleeper" comfortable. For REI Co-op brand nongendered sleeping bags, we provide an overall temperature rating that falls between the Comfort and Lower Limit ratings.
