Just got a very nice british army arctic sleeping back that I bought from the UK to use this winter in Sweden. I ordered an XL one but on the label it says Large (and on the stores own sticker-label it says XL). I tried to measure the size and it seems to be in par with the XL size but I am still a bit confused.

Can anyone that owns the XL model check if it is close to 80cm on its widest part and check their label aswell?

I would be very happy if anyone can look this up for me.

I have of course emailed the shop that I bought it from but I have a feeling that will reply earliest on monday :)

Cheers from Sweden!

It may be a factory second that was wrongly labelled
