Anyone have any experience with Wiggy's sleeping bags ?

Any alternate recommendations for high quality bags?

Thanks

I’ve had mine for over 30 years. No complaints here.

This past fall/winter I bought 2 Teton 0 degree rated sleeping bag from Sportmans and they were stellar. 1 for me and 1 for my daughter. I was warm and comfy all night. It is a regular style with a half mummy top plus you can zip to another one to make it large for a couple. Plenty of room in 1 bag to toss and turn without getting twisted. The price was between $35 and $60.
I have an Eddie Bauer 0 degree mummy bag and it can't handle temps in the low twenties.

I have three of his bags probably for close to 20 years . They are heavy and bulky compared to down and hybrid insulated bags . They are one of the few items you can purchase that actually does what they say its going to do . You can get them completely soaking wet , hang them over a bush and the water will drain right out . They dry very quickly . They will keep you warm when they get wet . They are very vapor permeable . You don't get a wet clammy feeling in the bags . Your body vapor seems to pass right through . Many years ago I drove out to Wyoming for a hunt . I pulled into a rest area for the night . I rolled out a pad and a custom bag (double bag system) in the open bed of my truck . It was blowing cold . I woke up the next morning under several inches of snow . Popped up through the snow and surprised a trucker parked in his rig next to me . He laughed and gave me the thumbs up . I never got cold or wet .
