thinking about the Sea to Summit Trek III long bag, price is close to $300.

Anyone got pros or cons about this?

I am 6'2 245lbs and want it to fit.

What about the warmth claim or what it compresses down to in the stuff sack?

Thanks.

These bags are so new, you won't likely find a lot of user feedback. The pre-production sample they sent to me last spring was very nice, but nothing about it reall stood out. Everything STS makes has been well recieved by the consumer public and I expect this to be no different. I'd still probably put my money in a Western Mountaineering bag first.

thanks.

Did you get the sense (from the sample) that the bag would pack down small? I have a synthetic Eureka bag, and it packs down small, but his heavy and kinda uncomfortable to sleep in. Looking for a new bag that solves these two problems.
