I have just picked up one of the Decathlon Vacuum Stuff Sacks, the ones you stuff your sleeping bag in and then sqeeze out all the air. I have a Nanok -10 and wondered if it would be OK to put it in the said Stuff Sack.

Any idea or thoughts would be most welcome................

depends on which size stuffsack - I've just started using an XL size to put my Nanok 0 in.. might be a bit of a squeeze getting the -10 in it...

something to note is the air release valve is NOT a one-way valve - For my sleeping bag I sit on top of it to squash the air out, then close the valve before getting off it :)



p.s. Hello Dave !

I have picked up the XL as well and the -10 just goes in...............good tip about sitting on it with my weight I could certainly squeeze the air out.
