Consumer Reports

Among the premium sleeping bag companies, Feathered Friends stands out for offering some of the absolute loftiest goose down. They incorporate this impressive insulation into our favorite women's sleeping bag, the Egret UL 20. As you might expect, this bag offers an outstanding warmth-to-weight ratio. And at just 1.7 pounds, we believe it truly lives up to its 20° F temperature rating. We also appreciate the full-length zipper for added venting possibilities on warmer nights. To top it off, it packs small to leave more room for luxuries in your overnight bag.
The primary drawback to the Egret's outstanding performance is a staggering price tag. This price, however, is somewhat offset by the longevity of the insulation which we've seen outlast the lesser goose down used by many companies. Another complaint is the slimmer dimensions which do not offer the same generous sleeping space as some other models. Nevertheless, this is our favorite women's sleeping bag, and an excellent choice for any serious backpacker.

) Fit 5 Stars From the first night I climbed into this bag I realized that when Feathered Friends set out to make the Egret Nano 20, they really listened to what women want from their sleeping bags. As I’ve mentioned, the bag has a larger toe box, which means that whether you’re a back, stomach, or side sleeper, your feet will be able to relax naturally without compressing the down on either side of your bag. And the roomier cut around the hips and elbows means that if you’re prone to rolling around a lot before settling on your go-to flamingo position, the bag won’t become tangled or feel constricting. I can’t speak to the Swallow, which is the men’s version, but Feathered Friends claims to have made both bags to be comfortable for either gender

 The construction of the hood is decidedly on the small side. It can feel a little constricting and my head kept popping out of the opening. The hood has a nice closure, but overall it’s a bit on the small side. While this isn’t by any means a deal breaker for me, it is worth being aware of if you’re going to push the boundaries of the temperature rating on this bag

 Inviting, eh? Warmth 5 Stars The Feathered Friends Egret Nano 20 is listed as a 20 degree bag, rated specifically for women. While I tested this bag in temperatures that were only in the low 30’s, I have a distinct feeling it could accommodate temperatures down to the low teens, especially if it was paired with a high R-Value sleeping pad. Durability 5 Stars I love light gear and the freedom it affords when moving in the mountains, but sometimes it feels like the material is so thin and flimsy it’s going to evaporate under your hands. Not true with the  Egret Nano! The NanoSphere exterior coat and overall fabric feel solid

Feathered Friends Egret 20 Review | Sleeping Bag Review | Backpackers.com

featheredfriends.com Sleeping bags often look very much alike—until you spend a night inside one and carry it in a backpack. That’s when the differences emerge, and besides price, those differences generally fall somewhere along a continuum where a bag’s warmth and comfort go up or down in proportion to its weight and packed size—and balancing those competing metrics gets tricky. But for many backpackers seeking the most warmth and comfort with the least weight and bulk, the Feathered Friends men’s Hummingbird UL and women’s Egret UL, both available in 30- and 20-degree versions, strike a near perfect balance for three-season adventures

 I slept in the men’s Hummingbird UL 30 on a six-day backpacking trip in Utah’s High Uintas Wilderness and a four-day hike on Nevada’s Ruby Crest Trail, both in July; on a seven-day, 96-mile hike of Wyoming’s Wind River High Route, where I stayed warm zipped up inside the bag on two nights near freezing—testing the bag’s rating—with the hood up and wearing just underwear and a long-sleeve top; and one early-summer night at 8,200 feet under the stars in Idaho’s Sawtooth National Forest, with the low temperatures around 40° F on several nights. I also used it on a five-day backpacking trip in the first week of March in The Maze District of Canyonlands National Park, where we had a few nights in the mid-20s Fahrenheit—and while some people would get cold pushing a bag below its temp rating limit, the fact that I remained comfortable in the Hummingbird UL 30 while wearing two warm top layers and long underwear is a testament to this bag’s beaucoup insulation and adequate warmth right down to its temp rating for many people.
