Helpfully, Rab includes a waterproof roll-top compression sack for this purpose, so you don't need to provide your own dry bag. If you’re planning a long, wet autumn ramble, then the Rab Neutrino 400 Sleeping Bag will need careful handling to keep it dry. Construction - It has Pertex Quantum shell to resist condensation, and Nikwax. While extra room could be nice to change positions, the tight fit does a good job of keeping the cold out, with its 800 fill power goose down. In testing, the down coating seemed to perform well, although it’s worth bearing in mind that down and water are still mortal enemies (head to our down vs synthetic sleeping bag explainer for more on that). Comfort - There is more movement inside the bag, and a nice tapered foot area neatly positioned to settle in comfortably. That comfort is also down to the hood and neck baffle, which work well – and indeed are both proven ‘in the field’. The 800FP down lofts very well, even after being compressed, and adds to a feeling of luxury, which is rare in a bag this light. The YKK Anti-snag zip insert works surprisingly well, spreading the two parts wide to prevent the lining snagging in the teeth, and should be standard fitment on all sleeping bags from now on.
