The best time to go camping is upon us, and for outdoor enthusiasts looking to save on the best gear, REI has already marked down its camping gear. The outdoor retailer’s sale section is stocked with everything from hiking shirts to camping stoves and even select tents. But the cornerstone of a successful trip is a good sleeping bag, and thankfully, one of REI’s most versatile options has dropped $70 in price.
The North Face’s Dolomite One Sleeping Bag is now on sale at REI starting at $105, which is 40% off the regular price of $175. More than 20 happy campers gave it five stars, with many declaring their love for the “game-changing” versatility that comes with its interchangeable layers. It’s available in two lengths — regular and long — and the latter is on sale for just $6 more. If you want a do-it-all sleeping bag that you can customize to cover a wide range of outdoor conditions, this is the one for you.

It’s important to have a quality sleeping bag in your outdoor gear arsenal. This one from The North Face is well-made and designed to be a three-in-one bag that will work in all seasons. Most sleeping bags are built to withstand a narrow temperature range, so most people will need to keep a few on hand as the seasons change. But the 5-pound Dolomite One can handle temperatures from 50 to 120 degrees Fahrenheit thanks to its interchangeable synthetic layers. For cold weather, use both zip-up layers to keep you warm; for cold weather, you can remove the top blue layer and use just the orange; for warm nights, use the blue layer to keep out drafts. But it’s not just comfortable for warmth; it’s rectangular in shape for airiness and has an extra-soft lining. Each layer also has a small pocket where you can stash your essentials while you sleep.
Shoppers loved how easy it was to layer this sleeping bag. “The layers were better than I expected,” one shopper said. “Being able to easily take a layer off and on was a game changer.” Another shopper agreed, saying, “Versatile bag. Easily adapts to changing temperatures while camping.”

For those worried it might not be warm enough, several shoppers said it kept them warm enough, even in freezing temperatures. “It kept me warm when I had frost on my sleeping bag,” exclaimed one shopper.
It’s easy to spend hundreds of dollars on multiple sleeping bags to conquer each season, but this sleeping bag system is the easiest way to save money and still be comfortable all year long. At just over $100, it’s a great deal and will definitely sell out soon, so grab yourself one before they’re gone forever.
