No, none of our Mummy or Ultralight sleeping bags are lined with cotton. Cotton is a bad idea in colder climates. It doesn&apos;t wick the moisture away from your skin. It holds it against your skin and can cause hypothermia. Synthetics and wool (or a blend of the two) are preferable because they will draw the moisture away from your skin and help keep you warm and dry.

Are any of our Mummy/Ultralight Backpacking sleeping bags lined with cotton?

It is! We have RDS certified down (Responsible Down Standard) in our down bags.

What are the pros and cons for LEEF vs. Altos Down?

The biggest differences are their compressibility and their actual warmth factor. My notes say that the down bag is 15.5" x 9" x 9" when packed (not compressed) and the ALTOS-S is 14" x 8" x 8" when packed. Down typically compresses better than synth

My notes say that the down bag is 15.5&quot; x 9&quot; x 9&quot; when packed (not compressed) and the ALTOS-S is 14&quot; x 8&quot; x 8&quot; when packed. Down typically compresses better than synthetic, so you may actually be able to fit the down bag into tighter spaces, even though it is technically larger when packed.<p style="margin: 0px 0px 20px; padding: 0px; border: 0px; font-style: normal; font-variant-ligatures: normal; font-variant-caps: normal; font-variant-numeric: inherit; font-variant-east-asian: inherit; font-variant-alternates: inherit; font-weight: 400; font-stretch: inherit; font-size: 15px; line-height: 1.5; font-family: Nunito, Helvetica, Arial, sans-serif; font-optical-sizing: inherit; font-kerning: inherit; font-feature-settings: inherit; font-variation-settings: inherit; vertical-align: baseline; color: rgb(85, 85, 85); letter-spacing: normal; orphans: 2; text-align: start; text-indent: 0px; text-transform: none; widows: 2; word-spacing: 0px; -webkit-text-stroke-width: 0px; white-space: normal; background-color: rgba(255, 255, 255, 0.8); text-decoration-thickness: initial; text-decoration-style: initial; text-decoration-color: initial;">When it comes to warmth, that&apos;s the real difference. We put our LEEF and our ALTOS down bags through a third party testing process called an EN rating. This gives us the temperatures at which the average female body is comfortable (comfort), the average male body is comfortable (limit), and the temperature at which the average female body can be protected from hypothermia (extreme).<p style="margin: 0px 0px 20px; padding: 0px; border: 0px; font-style: normal; font-variant-ligatures: normal; font-variant-caps: normal; font-variant-numeric: inherit; font-variant-east-asian: inherit; font-variant-alternates: inherit; font-weight: 400; font-stretch: inherit; font-size: 15px; line-height: 1.5; font-family: Nunito, Helvetica, Arial, sans-serif; font-optical-sizing: inherit; font-kerning: inherit; font-feature-settings: inherit; font-variation-settings: inherit; vertical-align: baseline; color: rgb(85, 85, 85); letter-spacing: normal; orphans: 2; text-align: start; text-indent: 0px; text-transform: none; widows: 2; word-spacing: 0px; -webkit-text-stroke-width: 0px; white-space: normal; background-color: rgba(255, 255, 255, 0.8); text-decoration-thickness: initial; text-decoration-style: initial; text-decoration-color: initial;">The EN ratings for the ALTOS 0 are as follows:<ul style="margin: 0px 0px 20px 25px; padding: 0px; border: 0px; font-style: normal; font-variant-ligatures: normal; font-variant-caps: normal; font-variant-numeric: inherit; font-variant-east-asian: inherit; font-variant-alternates: inherit; font-weight: 400; font-stretch: inherit; font-size: 15px; line-height: inherit; font-family: Nunito, Helvetica, Arial, sans-serif; font-optical-sizing: inherit; font-kerning: inherit; font-feature-settings: inherit; font-variation-settings: inherit; vertical-align: baseline; list-style: disc; color: rgb(85, 85, 85); letter-spacing: normal; orphans: 2; text-align: start; text-indent: 0px; text-transform: none; widows: 2; word-spacing: 0px; -webkit-text-stroke-width: 0px; white-space: normal; background-color: rgba(255, 255, 255, 0.8); text-decoration-thickness: initial; text-decoration-style: initial; text-decoration-color: initial;"><li style="margin: 0px 0px 5px; padding: 0px; border: 0px; font-style: inherit; font-variant: inherit; font-weight: inherit; font-stretch: inherit; font-size: inherit; line-height: 1.5; font-family: inherit; font-optical-sizing: inherit; font-kerning: inherit; font-feature-settings: inherit; font-variation-settings: inherit; vertical-align: baseline;">Extreme: -29F/-34 C</li><li style="margin: 0px 0px 5px; padding: 0px; border: 0px; font-style: inherit; font-variant: inherit; font-weight: inherit; font-stretch: inherit; font-size: inherit; line-height: 1.5; font-family: inherit; font-optical-sizing: inherit; font-kerning: inherit; font-feature-settings: inherit; font-variation-settings: inherit; vertical-align: baseline;">Limit: 7 F/ -14 C</li><li style="margin: 0px 0px 5px; padding: 0px; border: 0px; font-style: inherit; font-variant: inherit; font-weight: inherit; font-stretch: inherit; font-size: inherit; line-height: 1.5; font-family: inherit; font-optical-sizing: inherit; font-kerning: inherit; font-feature-settings: inherit; font-variation-settings: inherit; vertical-align: baseline;">Comfort: 19 F/ -7 C</li></ul><p style="margin: 0px 0px 20px; padding: 0px; border: 0px; font-style: normal; font-variant-ligatures: normal; font-variant-caps: normal; font-variant-numeric: inherit; font-variant-east-asian: inherit; font-variant-alternates: inherit; font-weight: 400; font-stretch: inherit; font-size: 15px; line-height: 1.5; font-family: Nunito, Helvetica, Arial, sans-serif; font-optical-sizing: inherit; font-kerning: inherit; font-feature-settings: inherit; font-variation-settings: inherit; vertical-align: baseline; color: rgb(85, 85, 85); letter-spacing: normal; orphans: 2; text-align: start; text-indent: 0px; text-transform: none; widows: 2; word-spacing: 0px; -webkit-text-stroke-width: 0px; white-space: normal; background-color: rgba(255, 255, 255, 0.8); text-decoration-thickness: initial; text-decoration-style: initial; text-decoration-color: initial;">As with many other sleeping bag companies, we do not have all our bags EN rated. The process is quite expensive, and we try to keep our costs low to provide our adventurers great gear at more accessible prices. The temperature rating for the ALTOS-S is a factory rating. To be safe, we consider the factory rating to be an extreme rating (-18 C), though it will likely perform well in a range around the given rating with the proper pad and layering system.<p style="margin: 0px 0px 20px; padding: 0px; border: 0px; font-style: normal; font-variant-ligatures: normal; font-variant-caps: normal; font-variant-numeric: inherit; font-variant-east-asian: inherit; font-variant-alternates: inherit; font-weight: 400; font-stretch: inherit; font-size: 15px; line-height: 1.5; font-family: Nunito, Helvetica, Arial, sans-serif; font-optical-sizing: inherit; font-kerning: inherit; font-feature-settings: inherit; font-variation-settings: inherit; vertical-align: baseline; color: rgb(85, 85, 85); letter-spacing: normal; orphans: 2; text-align: start; text-indent: 0px; text-transform: none; widows: 2; word-spacing: 0px; -webkit-text-stroke-width: 0px; white-space: normal; background-color: rgba(255, 255, 255, 0.8); text-decoration-thickness: initial; text-decoration-style: initial; text-decoration-color: initial;">Ultimately, the ALTOS down bag is likely to be warmer than the synthetic for its rating.

That&apos;s the primary downside to down is that it doesn&apos;t do well in wet conditions. Our down is treated though and has dried out faster than some synthetics (but it&apos;s an inherent weakness that synthetic (man-made plastics) don&apos;t have). Not all down or synthetic is created equal. In general, if you&apos;re expecting wet conditions, opt for synthetic.

Which is better, down or synthetic ALTOS?
