L.L.Bean has created a sleeping bag that is ideal for summer camping trips. This sleeping bag has been tested by the professionals of BackpackGearTest.org and is known for its superior quality. The interior of the sleeping bag is polyester while the outside or shell of the sleeping bag is nylon. This model comes in three sizes: child, adult and extra large adult, which measures at 6 feet, 5 inches. It comes in five different colors: Bright Navy, Canoe Green, Colonial Red, Green Tea and Royal Blue. This sleeping bag is approximately 5.5 pounds and is not recommended for long hikes as it is considered a heavier summer sleeping bag.

Rated four out of five stars by the sporting goods supplier giant REI, this Marmot piece is filled with goose down feathers inside and has a water-resistant exterior. A hood on the sleeping bag allows for all-over protection from the elements, and a face muff is included for comfort. This sleeping bag is labeled as a three-season favorite and is recommended for people who are generally colder during sleep. Lighter than many counterparts, this sleeping bag weighs in at approximately four pounds and is carried easily during hiking trips. The options vary between what side the bag zips on, and a zipper protector keeps the zipper from leaking water into the sleeping bag. This bag is priced at $200 before shipping and tax costs.
