My first thoughts on the OEX fathom EV 400 four season sleeping bag, bought for spring to autumn use in the UK.
quite compact and not too heavy at 1.1kg for a four season sleeping bag with a comfort rating of -1 degrees C. a quick comparison to the snugpak sleeper lite sleeping bag too which has a comfort rating of -5 degrees C and weighs 1.8kg.
thanks for watching!

Four seasons... I love these when it's chilly and... okay, even on hot nights when I curl up on the top of them and feel all cozy and fluffy. Great review!

Nice one Gaz, you always get kit at decent prices, I'm looking for center zip new sleeping bag. .. the DD Jura 2 I have is so heavy with that waterproof foot box, not many manufacturers do center zips for decent money... all big money...The EV400 looks like a decent bag for the weight, packs down pretty small.

Cheers Lee, yeah always try to get a bargain, I'm made up with the price I paid for it, will do me for the warmer months, central zips are good for hammock's, I might give hammock camping another go, I prefer ground dwelling though , I think I'll need the XL frontline hammock though for the extra room if I do, nice one mate 👍 ATB ⛺

@@GazianoOutdoors No need for a centre zip for hammocks really Gaz unless you've only got a hammock with one sided opening and your sleeping bag opens up the other side!! Although just sleep with your head the other end and problem solved ... I just like centre zips as I never seem to snag them and you always know where it is...

Bought the 300 version of this bag which is only 50 grams lighter and similar specs as the 400 supposed to go below 0 etc and is similar pack size so I doubt they are much difference just marketing to add another bag in the lineup. My initial experience in bags and camping over years is the bags are a joke for the ratings to weight ratio and type of filling. Unless OEX know or have invented synthetic filling no other top brand manufacturers like RAB, Mountain Hardware, Mountain Equipment, Marmot etc have been able to invent, then I took it with a pinch of salt. Took this bag up Kinder Scout at the weekend was froze in it at 4 degrees C with clothes on. Do not buy one for winter I knew the score but purposely packed my down jacket and bag liner to add if I got cold, good job too hey! Any reviews from people that used them in proper cold conditions who goes proper wild camping on the hills said they were way cold bags below the ratings, most reviews were removed from Blacks, Go Outdoors, Millets. Good comfy bag for the summer like you said Gaz you know the score but pitty anyone thinking they are getting a bargain winter bag at even 30 -40 quid. The basic 1700 grams weight Snugpak ones will keep you a lot warmer for that price. No synthetic bag made will be comfy sleeping at just over 1kg at a good few degrees below zero! You just can't have this weight and warmth in synthetic bags. You have to buy 850 fill power goose down with a nice even amount of filling and good quality baffled construction to go super cold and very light, but they are anything but light on the wallet !

Thanks for the detailed comment mate and your experience, I really appreciate it, there's nothing worse than being cold on a camp and it could be dangerous too, that's very naughty of those companies to take bad reviews down of sleeping bags. It could be putting people at risk, I bought this with spring , summer, early autumn at latest to use, I was thinking anything below 7 degrees c and I'll be switching to my snugpak, but as a summer bag it's been great used it 3 times and it packs down nicely, after hearing your experience at 4 degrees c on kinder I'll be even more cautious of using it in cold weather now, just glad you managed to stay warm mate, with the extra layers. Thanks for the awesome comment, take care, ATB 👍

@@GazianoOutdoors I'm going to buy the 900 down and feather filled bag from.OEX this week and will test that another heavily discounted bag in the range but with a more believable spec to weight ratio regarding fill type and range. I suspect it will be below the claims but more in line than these synthetic OEX ones I'm a warm sleeper too.

I'm thinking of buying this for all year round except winter as no way this will be a winter bag look at the filling content its double layer but like 110g square x 2 which if you look at most bags will not equate to that and any review I have seen on the OEX bags seems to say they are cold and well below the quoted temps, so good advice from my research is get the bigger bag. I will get one though as at the moment its on sale and 20% off at Millets and your review being a big bloke like me says it will fit good compared to most bags. Have you used it yet Gaz?
@GazianoOutdoors
@GazianoOutdoors 3 года назад
Hi mate, yeah I've used it 3 times on wild camps, it's been good so far, plenty of room in it, like you say I will only be using it for spring to autumn, I've got other bags for winter much warmer but heavier and bulkier, I've not used this in cold weather yet though, I wanted to get out this autumn and test it in slightly cooler conditions but I've got an injured knee so out of action at the moment. , Thanks for watching ATB 👍
