The Ascent™ down sleeping bag redefines what versatile means in a sleep system. Complex construction and high-quality down keep you warm when it’s cold outside, while the triple-zipper Free-Flow Zip™ system ensures you stay cool and ventilated when the weather warms.
Shaped to allow a natural sleeping position for comfort, the Ascent is light and compact enough to go everywhere your adventures may take you.
Is this down sleeping bag…?
-
Warm enough for cold-weather use? Yes. The high-lofting down, technical hood, oversized draft tubes, and draft collar make the Ascent 25°F and 15°F true 2.5 – 3 season bags. For colder weather, you might choose the Ascent 0°F model and pair it with a high R-Value sleeping mat like the Comfort Light Insulated.
-
Really cool in summer temperatures? Yes. The Free-Flow Zip system means separate zippers on your left and right side and in the foot box. Open them for ventilation or to turn the Ascent into a fully-flat comforter.
-
Able to be zipped to another sleeping bag? The main side zipper can be zipped to the Sea to Summit Women’s Altitude, Journey and Venture sleeping bags – Regular and Long bags have the same side zipper length.

Technical Features
750+ Loft Ultra-Dry Down™
The second highest-lofting down used in any of Sea to Summit’s sleeping bags. 750+ Fill Power indicates that one ounce (30g) of down will re-expand to over 750 cubic inches after compression. Higher loft means that less down can be used to achieve the same temperature rating – important for performance sleeping bags. The loft and down quality/composition are independently tested by the International Down and Feather Laboratory (IDFL) – a copy of the certification is supplied with every Sea to Summit sleeping bag.
The down is responsibly sourced and RDS certified and treated with the environmentally-friendly Ultra-Dry Down™ treatment.
All of which means you can rest easy.
Responsible Down Standard (RDS)
All Sea to Summit sleeping bags use only down which is certified according to the Responsible Down Standard. The RDS is helping shift the entire down and feather industry towards more humane animal rearing and handling practices. Overseen by the industry leading Textile Exchange, the RDS requires independent, third-party assessments of all aspects of animal rearing and handling throughout the entire supply chain. By using only down that meets the audited requirements of the RDS, we can have confidence that each phase of the collection process has been completed with the welfare and ethical treatment of waterfowl in mind.

Zip Coupling
Down and synthetic bags identified with our zip coupling symbol use a 65 inch #5 YKK full-length zip which allows a unisex left-handed and women's specific right-handed bag to pair together.
Designed to pair side by side, each person sleeps in their own bag enabling each of you to take advantage of your bag's unique insulation zones, hood and footbox features - perfect for cozy adventures for two.
Bags with full-length #5 YKK zips on both sides can also be coupled together with other pairing bags.
Free Flow Zip
Our Free-Flow triple-zip design ensures your sleeping bag retains maximum warmth and efficiency when needed and multiple ventilation options when it's not.
The half-zip on the right side of the bag (left side on women's bags) provides freedom of movement for both arms, additional ventilation and allows the top third of the bag to be folded down as a mini quilt when the mercury climbs higher than expected.
