Instead of leaving the waterproof foot pocket in your dossbag when you pack away, put the footpocket in the compression sack first then pack the sleeping bag in. The foot pocket then becomes a water resistant inner to your stuffsack.... :naughty:

Am I the only one who thinks the Stuff sacks are pants. Once under tension the top just opens up. Why do the compression straps not go over the entrance the way they do on most other bags.


Of course other than that they are top bags, just the stuff sack that is poo.

Depends guys, I have stuff sacks which have the webbing crossing over the opening. You can get rid of so much bulk with a compression sack it is silly not to, surely.

thanks mate, good idea I had problems getting snow into the compression sack through the small entrance hole of the sack. I will try what you suggest and see if it fix the problem.

thanks
