Send Us an eMailHi Wiggys crew,
The new site looks great!
Just wanted to take a minute and thank you for your work.
From the Antarctic Bag & Mitts, our beautiful white Fossil Ridge Parkas & Bibs, Mukluks, even the booties & other odds & ends… these have all become my favorite things, because they’re the equipment depend on with full confidence. Amazing warmth, breathability and comfort, rugged durability, washability, and the quality of your company itself, standing behind your products & even accommodating custom orders; there is just no one like you guys.
You’ve made winter my favorite time of year. Now when it’s -35, I grab a book, my gear & snowshoes, head out wherever, and enjoy the sunshine and fresh air in total comfort. I’ve used your gear winter camping & adventuring up into canada, climbing up/sliding down snow, ice, rocks & dirt, been blown across Lake Superior on my face in ice squalls and after the initial shock, even enjoyed the experience of getting run over by the freight train whiteout hurricane, completely warm & protected. Somehow, this stuff shows no wear yet! I don’t get it, but I love it.
I can’t thank you enough for the excellent equipment and your willingness to do custom work to make everything perfect for your customers.
Sincerely,
Pete Doering
Here are a few pics of places your gear has allowed me to go...
Mr. Wigutow,
In August of this year I completed my Alaskan caribou hunt that I discussed in my first email back in April, 2014. During the trip, I utilized the Super Light bag that I purchased on your advice. I had the FTRSS with me but I did not need it! I used it as an extra sleeping bag since the Super Light was plenty warm; for short periods I slept with bare feet and was plenty warm. I was able to dry out most of my clothes just by either wearing them in the bag or stuffing them inside while I was in it. My buddies with cheap bags never could dry their clothes and they were miserable. I did not take your ground pad with me since we had an outfitter camp package that included (cheap USGI-type) sleeping pads.
I also wore daily your 9” socks and jacket liner. They worked very well in keeping me warm and dry. The socks were very comfortable during the 40-plus miles I walked while on the hunt. In the attached photo I was wearing the jacket inside out as 'tundra camo.' It worked well in that regard.
Anyways, thank you for the great advice and for the great products.

I think I bought my Ultima Thule back in like 1997 and it's still my go to bag in the winter time here in Colorado. Over New Year's eve I backpacked up Pikes Peak and camped inside Monty's Rock Pile just below Barr Camp. The temp at night was around 5 below zero and I slept toasty warm thanks to your bag. Thanks Jerry.

[Here's a picture of] your awsome waders at work. 3rd season on them and of course they were trashed by the end of last season, but a few patches got us through this season. They sure do make crossing streams with sheep meat on your back a little nicer. Thanks again and keep up the good work.

I wasn’t really in the market for a new bag but some folks on a forum I frequent were raving about how good Wiggy’s bags were. I decided to check it out and purchased a Super Light bag for myself. I was a little skeptical, but the quality of the bag is amazing. Everything feels high quality and well put together, especially the zippers. This bag seems built to last. I was so impressed, I went ahead and ordered 2 additional bags for my wife and son and will be ordering ground pads for all three of us as well. Thanks Wiggys

My family and I are new to camping. We have wanted to do it for years and lately have decided it is time. We love the idea of spending time outdoors and have been researching the gear we will need. I knew very little about sleeping bags. I watched many Youtube videos and read many reviews. I realized most of these products were overly priced and they were all made in China. In my search for a quality made in America bag that fell within our budget I came across Wiggys. I feel very lucky to have found you. At first I ordered two super light bags. One for myself and one for my son as we were planning our first camping trip. Once I received them and tried them out on our living room floor, I was impressed right away with the quality and comfort. I went ahead and ordered two more for my wife and daughter as well as two standard ground pads and two luxury ground pads. My son and I took our first camping trip and wow. I cannot say enough about how comfortable these bags are. The night temperatures were mild getting down to only about the low 50's but I slept better than I do in my bed. The feel of the insulation in these bags is perfect. You can feel how it holds the warmth in without getting too hot. It is very fluffy and maintains its loft. When you unpack the bags, they practically inflate themselves for lack of a better word. The loft just wants to expand. The feel of the fabric was very comfortable as well. Both types of ground pads worked very well. The standard one was a little thinner than the luxury one, but I could not feel a noticeable difference between the two. I fully expect that if we had colder conditions the luxury one would have provided a little better insulation against the ground due to the extra thickness. I am looking forward to our next trip and will definitely be trying them out in colder weather. Thank you and your team for making a quality product right here in the good old US of A. You have gained a customer for life.

I drove to Grand Junction, CO (a 4 hour drive) just to take advantage of the Wiggy's sleeping bag sale. I tested out my new bag on a Scout trip this past weekend and just loved how comfortable I was.
I usually start out cold, then warm up and get too hot, opening and closing my sleeping bag all night to get comfortable. I usually end up cold after all of this. In my new Wiggy's bag I stayed at the perfect temperature all night and had a great night's sleep. Wow! I didn't think there would be such a difference! I really like how the compression sack brings the bag down to the right size for my future canoe trips as size is a consideration in packing my dry bag. I am very glad I picked up a 2nd bag to share with my husband who is always cold. :-)
The quality is excellent and I enjoyed chatting with the owner who is very knowledgeable. I will be back for more equipment and clothing to build up my camping equipment.

I came across Wiggys after seeing a post on Section Hikers Facebook page that talked about Wiggys waders for stream and river crossings. The timing couldn’t have been better, as I had an upcoming backcountry backpacking trip to Denali national park planned. This is the one piece of gear that made the trip much more enjoyable with the significant number of river crossings we needed to complete. The fall weather had the temperatures dropping and without these, it definitely would have meant cold and wet feet. So easy to pull on over hiking boots and with a quick cinch, we were able to cross effectively and stay dry. I would highly recommend these as an addition to your pack. Very light and easy to stuff in a pack pocket for quick deployment.

What a company, called on a Sat and the owner answered. Complete product knowledge. Affordable, American made, one time and every thing promised. Thank you for a great experience.

I was first exposed to a Wiggy's sleeping bag when one was issued to me (Army) around 2000. I had it for a few years, and was impressed by the warmth. I also noticed the craftsmanship and that it maintained its fill and seams despite repeated use.
Years later, when I was replacing my personal sleeping bag, and getting one for my son, I decided to go with Wiggy's. I love that they're American-made, and i already know that the craftsmanship is superior. A final selling point is that when you compare Wiggy's to other American-made bags, they're less than 1/2 the cost!

I recently bought a new 60 inch ground pad and immediately used it on a camping trip. The weather was rainy and damp and temperatures dropped below freezing with ice on the tent fly each morning. Previously i was cold with the drafts under my cot and my new pad totally stopped the drafts and I was nice and warm. Also, I was amazed at how comfortable I was, this is a great improvement! My Wiggy's pad will be on all future trips!

Hi wiggly
I moved to Alaska 22yr ago and found your sleeping bags via my father in law at the time. They have never been out of my sight each winter since. I live in Fairbanks and seasonally would stay in a wall tent through deep winters -45°f and down. Your bags let me forget the pack stove detail many cold nights, but I was warm.

Hi Jerry,
Been using your sleeping bags and some clothing for several years now, loved them all. I've lived mostly in milder climates so never felt I could truly test them. Just moved north and recently experienced -5 to -15 degrees with wind chill thrown in as well.
Decided to go for a walk and I put on your fishnet top, a nylon/merino hoody, your Liner Jacket, and the ducksback pullover you used to sell. I was too warm. Had to take the pullover off while moving and stayed perfectly warm with those three light layers. When I stopped for a while and put the pullover back on I was perfectly warm on my upper body with -20 to -25 wind chills. My feet were warm with your lamilite socks and a pair of uninsulated boots. I don't have the leg jackets yet so my legs were a bit chilly with what I was wearing, but I plan to pick up a pair of those and never worry about that again (amongst other things for the rest of the family now that we live in colder climes).
Thanks for the great gear. It's been with me all over the mountains and coasts for years and never failed. I've been shocked at how warm that Pullover and Liner Jacket have been over the years even in soaking wet conditions for hours. I'd trust my life to your gear in the most extreme conditions. I can't think of a better compliment to give you than that.
Blessings to you and your team!
Dan
