Mummy sleeping bag VAUDE Sioux 800 XL II — recycled polyester, 2350 mm length, 750 mm width, for users up to 205 cm

VAUDE Sioux 800 XL II is an extra-long mummy sleeping bag designed for taller users up to 205 cm. Made primarily from recycled polyester and filled with Sensofiber Eco synthetic insulation, this 3-season bag combines a form-fitting mummy shape with a two-layer fiber construction to provide consistent thermal performance. The outer fabric is treated with a PFC-free Eco Finish for water repellency and dirt resistance, while the breathable, durable materials dry quickly and retain insulating properties when damp. The bag packs down compactly for trekking and travel and includes practical details such as a contoured hood, warmth collar and inner pocket.

Advantages

The two-layer synthetic fill eliminates cold spots and ensures even heat distribution, while the mummy cut reduces dead space and improves thermal efficiency. Insulation made from 100% recycled polyester offers fast drying, low maintenance and reliable warmth even in damp conditions. The shell and lining are lightweight yet durable, treated for water repellency without PFCs, and produced with reduced energy consumption and lower CO2 emissions. A long side zip with double-slide, dividable fastener increases ventilation options and allows connection to compatible sleeping bags.

Suitable for

• Backpacking and trekking where compact packed size and weight matter
• Camping trips in spring, summer and autumn
• Taller users (up to 205 cm) seeking extra length and footroom
• Multi-day tours where quick-drying insulation is beneficial

How to use

Unpack the sleeping bag and allow it to loft before use for optimal insulation. Use the contoured hood and warmth collar to minimise heat loss around the head and neck. Open the two-way zip to regulate temperature or connect the bag with a compatible partner using the dividable zipper. After use, air the bag thoroughly to remove moisture and compress only when storing for travel; prolonged storage should be loose to preserve loft and insulation properties. Clean according to the manufacturer’s instructions using mild detergent suitable for synthetic sleeping bags.

Usage recommendations

For best performance, use a sleeping pad to improve insulation from the ground and reduce heat loss. Dry the bag completely after wet conditions and avoid frequent washing; spot-clean where possible and wash only when necessary following care instructions for recycled polyester and synthetic fill.
