Best double sleeping bag for couples enjoying chilly car-camping adventures.

Treated with a water-repellent finish, this bag keeps moisture at bay, while internal stash pockets keep essentials close at hand for a restful night under the stars.

Know before you buy
Yes. The dual 2-way zippers allow you to fully separate the top and bottom sections, effectively turning the bag into two separate quilts. This is a great feature if you want more versatility for warmer nights or different sleeping preferences.
The 20°F rating is a comfort limit, meaning it is designed to keep you warm down to that temperature. However, individual warmth varies significantly based on your sleeping pad, clothing, and personal metabolism, so it is best suited for car camping where you have extra blankets on hand if needed.
The hood is specifically designed to be large enough to accommodate standard pillows from home. You can tuck them inside the hood area to keep them from sliding off your sleeping pad during the night.
The Siesta Hooded 20 weighs 5.46 lbs and has a packed volume of over 60 liters. Because of its size and weight, it is designed specifically for car camping and is not recommended for backpacking where weight and packability are priorities.
The offset quilt construction helps stabilize the synthetic insulation so it doesn't shift or clump over time. This design creates consistent loft throughout the bag, which is essential for preventing cold spots and maintaining heat retention.
The nonfluorinated DWR (durable water repellent) treatment makes the fabric water-resistant, meaning it will cause light moisture or condensation to bead up and roll off. It is not waterproof, so you should avoid using it in direct rain or standing water.
