USMC Issue Intermediate Sleeping Bag, Used

The USMC intermediate sleeping bag was designed to be used with or without the 3-season bag and bivy to create a sleeping bag system for the U.S. Marine Corp.  When used alone, the intermediate sleeping bag is rated to 15 degrees but may be used down to -20 when used inside the system making this a versatile bag for 3 and 4 seasons.  The intermediate bag was also made larger in order to comfortably accommodate the inner bag making this a great bag when extra room is needed.  As with all military sleeping bags, they are rated when the soldier is wearing a medium weight base layer.  When not in the field, it is always recommended to use the military mesh storage bag in order to allow the insulation to keep its loft and heat retention.  Building a good sleep system will allow you the options to always be ready.  So, get out and enjoy the outdoors.

Condition Guide

Surplus is real military gear, and the exact conditions may vary.  Surplus is graded to give you options for your budget and have a clearer description.  We grade to a high standard and may differ from other brands scales so please read our grades in full.  Military gear was built well and used by soldiers proving its quality.  We hope you find that it serves you well. 

Grade 1: Very good condition, great color with only minor signs of use and no repairs or holes. These are harder to find and close to like new. 

Grade 2: What we call normal surplus. The gear is fully usable and shows normal signs of use but has a lot of life left. Some items may have stains, writing, color fading, small repairs, and or surface rust on them.  Smaller items may contain frays or small holes that do not affect the gears performance.
