Which dry bag for my sleeping bag?
Keeping your sleeping bag dry in your rucksack is essential on a multi day trek. Our Airlok XT bags are ideal for this, but which size should you go for?
Assuming you are stuffing the sleeping bag directly in the dry bag we find that a Large Airlok XT is good for: PipeDream 400, PipeDream 600, SkyeHigh 400 and SkyeHigh 600. An Extra Large Airlok XT is suitable for both the SkyeHigh 800 and 1000.
If you want to use the provided compression bag you will have to choose a larger size due to the size of the opening.
