The sleeping bag rebels going rogue on ratings!

Ben and Lauren dive into non-EN-rated sleeping bags, explaining why these rating renegades might actually be onto something! Our gear gurus decode what EN standards really tell you (and what they don't), and introduce their very own Snowys rating - focusing on real-world warmth over laboratory perfection. 

The conversation covers Lauren's field-tested, cold-weather survival tactics, warranty claims that'll leave you out in the cold, and Ben's refreshingly honest take on why some of the best bags don't always boast a certification.
