Dutch M90 Sleeping Bag with Liner Sheet and Compression Stuff Sack, Surplus

A thick, heavy, and warm winter sleeping bag. You know what they say: "When it's cold, it's worth its weight in gold." Comes with a liner sheet and a compression stuff sack!

The bag is a winterweight, typical mummy sack, with polyester filling inside. One size fits all, according to the Dutch army. Our suggestion is in the 185–195 cm range or 6' 1"–6' 5" in freedom units. If your clothing size is X-Large, these are still unlikely to feel restricting. Total length and width at the shoulders are roughly 220 x 85 cm / 87" x 34".

Included is a sleeping bag liner. It attaches with snap-fasteners all around the opening of the bag and also to the bottom at the foot end. For the effort, it stays put instead of wringing on its own. The material is 50/50 polyester-cotton and a smart user washes the liner sheet only from time to time.

The package includes a 35 x 70 cm / 14" x 28" compression stuff sack made from very sturdy Cordura with a DPM camo pattern. The size is generous; you can practically throw the sleeping bag and liner inside, which is very handy in the field. The cost of the strong material and large size is weight: 785 g / 1.7 lbs. In case you are looking for a lighter option, even the larger Carinthia 28 x 54 cm sack requires optimal conditions, violence, and acceptance of partial failure.

The bag itself weighs about 3.4 kg / 7.5 lbs. The whole set with the liner and sack weighs 4.9 kg / 10.8 lbs. We have no data about the recommended temperature thingies, but it's very obviously a winter sleeping bag. Our Dutch friends just let us know that the official limit is -15ºC / 5ºF and the liner drops this to -20ºC / -4ºF.

These are in a nice, serviceable condition. Used yes, but originally made so well that there's nothing to really gripe about, maybe the occasional faulty snap fastener. If there's some storage smell, hang the bag out to air it. The PU coating of the compression sack flakes off due to age, so total waterproofness is not guaranteed.

If you want a new bag, buy a new bag instead. The modern ones are lighter, too.
