Product Care
Your Aerie Sleeping Bag is a high performance piece of gear. It needs some extra attention to keep it performing at the highest level.
Please read through the care instructions below to ensure that you care for it properly:
Before Washing
- Always wash your down product completely alone to prevent down migration.
- Never wash your down product in a washing machine that has an agitator.
- If you cannot follow either of these prior instructions you should hand wash your sleeping bag using the detergent and drying process described below.
The Wash & Dry Process
- Use a mild detergent like Dreft (for babies) or Nikwax (for technical gear).
- Choose Low Spin or Delicate wash.
- Choose Cold Wash & Cold Rinse.
- Hang dry until the sleeping bag is completely dry.
- Then loft and redistribute your down insulation in the dryer by running it for 10 minutes on low or no heat with 3 dryer balls.
Long Term Storage
- Do not store down product compressed long term. Long term compression weakens the insulation's ability to loft and therefore insulate.
- We recommend hanging it in your closet or putting it in a pillow case for storage between uses.

Correction to my previous review. My bag is a 0 degree bag
I’ve been looking to purchase the zero degree Aerie for a couple of months now. Previously it said it would be available in November, but the last few times I’ve checked it just says sold out. 🤷🏻♀️
Tried contacting customer service, but they never responded.
Love this thing. The one I have is an older model that ive had for around 5 years now with the square baffles and it has treated me well through ~90-100 nights in the summer and winter, on the ground and in hammocks. If treated well it lasts a very long time. I had the stitching around one of the drawstrings fall apart on a trip and fixed it with some electrical tape i had with me that has now doubled the lifespan. I imagine outdoor vitals will be where i return to when its time to retire this piece.
The Aerie is THE best, not only underquilt but sleeping bag. The customer service is good. The bag itself is super warm and will get the job done.
Purchased the 0* bag and really like the fact it is spacious, square bottom and the very bottom unzips so my feet can stick out. It is one of the main things i dislike about most bags is the inability to unzip the bottom. Haven't used it in the cold yet.
