Nemo Tempo
Best spacious sleeping bag for side sleepers on a budget.
This bag finally solves the claustrophobia of traditional mummy shapes by prioritizing room at the elbows and knees. It’s a dream for side sleepers who value comfort over shaving every ounce of weight, though the synthetic fill means it’s bulkier to pack than premium down alternatives.
