If you’re the kind of person who likes zipping your mummy bag over your face, saying goodnight, and burrowing down deep, these aren’t probably the bags for you. But if you’ve ever tried zipping your sleeping bag to your partner’s, or using one as a bottom sheet and the other as a blanket, these are better options. Never underestimate a good night’s sleep with your adventure partner.

This bag will keep you and your loved one warm down to 20 degrees. It also has a zipperless design made to keep you comfortable and warm. And on that warm note: The self-sealing foot vent allows you to let some air in, then quickly close it back up. It comes with insulated hand and arm pockets to seal out drafts. For a double bag, this one has it all.

This bag is simple, but that’s part of its charm. It weighs less than 12 pounds and sleeps two people. The Tech Loft+ insulation will keep you warm. The two-layer construction helps. And the best part is you can unzip it and make it into separate bags if you end up on a trip without your boo.

Double bags don’t have to cost an arm and a leg. This one might not be rated to 15 or 20 degrees, but it will feel like a bed on cool nights in a tent, back of the truck, or even under the stars. Zipped together, the individual bags become a queen bed. It’s soft, warm, cozy, and will make you think you’re at home. And it comes with two travel pillows.

Where do we begin on why this Big Agnes double bag is a great option for any couple in the backcountry? Its flex pad sleeve attaches to your pad or pads like a fitted sheet. But there’s so much more. The fitted hoods give you the feeling of a mummy bag but the comfort of sleeping next to your partner. It has all the bells and whistles you’d want, with a roomie shoulder area and tapered foot.
