Badger GWS
$765.00 - $815.00
Description

  Extra-wide mummy with windproof, highly water-resistant shell; 15° F.

  Don't let a little claustrophobia keep you from getting into a mummy bag; everything about the Western Mountaineering Badger GWS is built for comfort. The 15-degree Badger is a mammoth 66 inches wide at the shoulder and 41 at the foot, and this girth is kept in line with a warm down-filled collar that provides a barrier against convective heat loss and a full-length insulated draft tube along the zipper. The hood is cut large and fills around your face without having to be cinched tight. On top of all that, the Badger GWS has a highly water-resistant/breathable Gore Windstopper™ shell for extreme weather protection. This shell is the most water-resistant, windproof, and breathable fabric suitable for sleeping bags.

  Like all of Western Mountaineering's bags, the Badger GWS is made by hand in San Jose, California. Their down is sourced from free-range mother geese who are never live-plucked or force-fed.

Footprint sold separately.

A Beginner’s Guide to Watch Straps

  The 2025 Volvo EX90 is set to become the brand’s all-electric flagship, ushering in what the automaker describes as a “new era” that will, sometime around decade’s end, see it shift completely to battery-electric vehicles.
