OK, it’s rated for zero degrees, but is that Fahrenheit or Celsius? Guess you’ll have to find out the hard way.

MPGear has assured us they can make delivery in time for Holidays!! They want to make sure that everyone who takes advantage of this deal gets the royal-woot treatment!!
This bag is available in "LONG" for only $5.00 more. Great for that sasquach in the family.
Five dollars gets you six more inches, so many comments to make on that.
From the site: This sleeping bag comes in a regular size to fit the 6-foot (183cm) crowd and weighs 6 lbs. 3 oz. The long size fits the 6-foot 6-inch (198cm) crowd and weighs 6 lbs. 12 oz.. The sleeping bag includes a stuff sack.
i like staying warm
That's right! We'll do whatever we need to in order to get this on your door step before the Holidays!

Sweet! Kelty makes good stuff and the price is $10 less than anything I found so far (amazon etc.)
I have a Kelty sleeping bag, although mine is only +10 degrees, and I really like it. It is long (hehe) and I use the extra room (I'm about 6' even) to put my clean clothes in the bag with me for the next day, so that they are nice and warm for the morning (kind of smelly too, but you're already camping...).
I have one of these bags. Got it for camping in the parking lot at the local standup snowsliding emporium. Does a dandy job, half tempted to pick up a 2nd.
sweet deal
I am not a fan of these type of sleeping bags. I think it has to do with the fact that I move around in my sleep. A lot. I have found these to not be so conducive to my active sleeping style.
I'd rather get a foot long at subway for $5. :D
@spyder3o3: tasty, but fleeting goodness...
@sgoman5674: I'm not sure I really understand your comment. This is a pretty normal bag style. Is it just mummy bags in general that you dislike? If so, I can sort of understand that; it all just boils down to a matter of preference, though. There are some advantages to having a mummy bag, however, and I definitely prefer it vs. the rectangular shape. Here's why:
The biggest advantage is the weight...less material = less weight. Additionally, you'll warm up much quicker in a mummy bag than you will in a standard, rectangular shaped bag, as there's less space around your body to heat up.
That being said, if you squirm around a lot while you sleep, a rectangular bag might suit you better, but you should definitely consider the advantages of the mummy shape when making your decision.
For what it's worth, the 0-degree rating is Fahrenheit. Also, generally considered "subjective" -- one person's "comfortable" might be another person's "bearable" and yet another person's "chilly"; but at least you probably won't become hypothermic. :)
Kelty is a reputable company to whom many people have entrusted their trips, and indeed their well-being. This deal - is not bad.
