How water-resistant is this sleeping bag (if at all)?

According to Ledge Sports.com this bag is water resistant. All of ledge backpacking sleeping bags are water resistant. These bags are a great value!

It's synthetic, so when it gets dam, it does dry quickly. If you're looking for water resistance, I'd recommend pairing the bag with some type of lightweight bivy.

It is of average thickness for a sleeping bag. I've only used it on a cot and it's a great, roomy bag that kept me warm even on a couple of 40 degree nights in the Adirondacks. Remember though, even the thickest bag would compress under your weight if you're on something "hard". If you want comfort put it on a cot, or put an air mattress or a good quality pad between the bag and the hard surface.

Im not sure if it's qualified as a water proof, but seems like it. I would feel safe to walk with this bag under rain. Definitely wouldn't swim with it :-)

I don't own this bag but am considering buying for my 14 year old. I have many years of outdoor experience and temp ratings on bags are kinda like person ratings on tents...they don't quite hold true. For camping at those temps my suggestion is for you to put a light weight fleece sleeping bag inside it and you'll be comfy cozy on even the coldest of nights. Just saw some Coleman brand fleece bags on Amazon for about $20. This solution gives you more flexibility with the temp range of the bag because you can remove it for sleeping in warmer temps.

Yes - That is all I can use this bag for now. I have had a bad experience with the zipper. My wife tried to use the sleeping bag fully clothed and ripped the zipper - it won't reconnect. I would not recommend that you buy this bag unless it is under $20.

Please excuse me as I try to help you. This word is misused a lot at times. Can you go diving with it and keep items dry, most likely not. I have been caught in a few downpours of rain for extended amounts of time and my items inside were dry. So I would say the bag is water repellent to an extent. Waterproof meaning surrounded by water on every inch of the bag and not allowing water to penetrate, and I don't think it would pass that test. My bag kicks butt, I have abused, thrown, and almost wanted it to fall apart to justify trying something new out, but it won't give. Due to that I bought a smaller condor bag and molle gear.

Depends on what you wanting it for...I wouldn't count on it to be 100% water tight, and it is in no way even remotely "bear proof". It's decent general purpose light-duty tote with wheels.

It is really soft inside and rugged outside. It is very bulky and weighs approx. 12 lbs. I use it all the time is its the best sleeping bag I've ever owned.

I'm not sure its been about a month since I've had it out due to working so much. Its definitely not a packers sleeping bag, I wouldnt think anyway. Few people are as crazy as myself, but if you want my personal opinion I'd consider it a packable sleeping bag. But then again I pack heavy. 5lbs? Maybe? Don't quote me lol..

No problem with a sleeping bag and a 200-pound person. I've used it a number of times with no problem whatsoever.

this one is about 3.25 lbs and can be compressed down "Not recommended for storage but in backpack trail mode" to the size of a basket ball. Hope this helps its pretty warm bag I have had it down to 25 degrees and was warm. Remember there are several important factors for sleeping warm. Eating well good sleeping pad and tent placement and a few other things.

We used it last summer when we went camping in the NC mountains. Night time temps got down into the upper 50's and the kept us plenty warm. The sleeping bag is not overly thick and should work great for you.

It is not water-proof. I sheds water fairly well though. In my experience, unless you fork out the money for a true dry-bag, backpacks are never waterproof after about 30 minutes in the rain.

I'd say it's water resistant, but not waterproof. That is why they include an orange rain cover, which is tucked under the bag. Overall, I'm happy with this backpack.

Water-proof? No. Water-resistant? Probably. I've had this backpack for approx. 2 months, and have had zero issues commuting to work in the rain without an umbrella. My laptop/notebooks have always stayed dry in light to moderate rain, although I haven't tested it in heavy rain for long distances...and I don't plan on taking the risk, unless absolutely necessary.

Based on my quick test, this bag is only water resistant. I put my hand in one of the pockets and poured water over the bag. After a while the water seemed to seep through, although my hand never got wet I did feel moisture.
