Pros
- ALPINE 4 SEASON SLEEPING BAG: Camping out in colder weather? For a warm and snug night’s sleep, look no further than the Blue Alpine 400 Hooded Sleeping Bag. The sleeping bag measures 220cm x 75cm (approx.) and provides optimum comfort at 0˚C. With an extreme temperature rating of -10˚C, it’s perfect for using during the winter, as well as colder nights throughout the year.
- DOUBLE QUILTED WITH OFFSET STITCHING: The Alpine has a water-resistant 190T polyester shell, plus a soft polycotton liner for comfort. In addition, it contains two layers of hollowfibre filling (2 x 200gsm) which are quilted at different intervals to offset the stitching. As a result, it forms an exceptionally strong barrier to reduce heat loss and keep you well insulated from the cold.
- DRAWCORD HOOD FOR EXTRA INSULATION: Extra insulation is provided by a snug drawcord hood. Simply pull the drawcord to tighten the hood around your head, neck, and shoulders. As well as keeping them comfortably cushioned, the hood helps to store your body heat for superior warmth whilst sleeping. In addition, the hood is perfect for keeping a pillow firmly locked in place.
- 2 WAY ZIPPER TO REGULATE TEMPERATURE: If the night-time temperature is unseasonably warm, a two way zipper allows you to create an opening to cool yourself down whilst sleeping. Conversely, when the temperature is on the colder side, you can use the Velcro closure to lock the zips in place, prevent them coming loose at night, and minimise the amount of heat loss.
Cons
- No built-in pillow compartment.

About this product
The Trail Alpine 400 Sleeping Bag is designed for those who enjoy camping in colder weather conditions. Measuring approximately 220cm x 75cm, this sleeping bag provides a snug and warm night’s sleep down to a comfort rating of 0°C, making it ideal for winter camping or any time you need extra warmth. The bag features an extreme temperature rating of -10°C, ensuring that you stay comfortably insulated from the cold.
The sleeping bag is constructed with a double quilted design using hollow fibre filling (2 x 200gsm) and offset stitching to create a strong barrier against heat loss. This innovative technique reduces heat escape and keeps your body warm throughout the night. The water-resistant 190T polyester shell, combined with a soft polycotton lining, enhances comfort while providing protection from external elements.
The drawcord hood is another key feature that adds extra insulation to the sleeping bag. It can be tightened around your head, neck, and shoulders to trap body heat and keep you warm. The hood also helps in securely holding a pillow in place, ensuring a comfortable night’s sleep. Additionally, the two-way zipper allows for temperature regulation; it can be opened to cool down on warmer nights or closed with Velcro to maintain warmth.
While the Alpine 400 is well-equipped for cold weather camping, one minor drawback is that it does not include a built-in pillow compartment. Despite this, its combination of insulation, comfort features, and practical design make it an excellent choice for single adult campers in colder seasons.
