Vango's Nitestar Alpha 250 S is a two-season synthetic sleeping bag perfect for camping across the summer months. Ideal for smaller campers, this short-length version will fit users up to 5ft 9in/175cm tall.
Filled with Alpha synthetic insulation, you'll experience lightweight warmth and resilient performance. Able to insulate even if it gets damp, it's an excellent choice for UK camping. The adjustable hood and shoulder baffle help trap heat on cooler nights. If you get too warm, you can use the two-way zip to vent from the top or bottom. Cut in a tapered mummy shape to reduce weight and bulk, the design also boosts thermal efficiency. Supplied with a compression stuff sack, you can cinch the bag, so it takes up less room in your pack.

TWO Season
Two season sleeping bags are perfect for late spring to early autumn temperatures. They are ideal for those who like to camp during the warmer months of the year.
SYNTHETIC
Synthetic insulation is light, durable, and offers good performance at a lower price. In comparison to down, it retains a much higher percentage of its insulating properties when wet. Modern materials and constructions enable synthetic sleeping bags to achieve reliable warmth ratings for a range of temperatures. With better water resistance than their down counterparts, they make excellent choices for adventures in damp conditions. Easier to care for, if you’re camping with kids, they’re the sensible choice!
