Our take on the REI Co-op Magma 15 Sleeping Bag Purple Short

The REI Co-op Magma 15 is a three-season mummy bag filled with water-resistant 850-fill down and wrapped in recycled ripstop nylon. ISO testing puts its comfort limit at 21°F and its lower limit at 9°F, so the 15°F label is a fair rating for most sleepers. The short size fits people up to 65 inches. At $278.93 at REI as of November 4, 2026, it sits at the low end of its recent range, which has hovered in the high $200s to low $300s.

Questions and answers

Is the Magma 15 warm enough for freezing nights?
ISO testing rates it comfortable to 21°F and survivable to 9°F. Most sleepers are fine into the low 20s with a pad and base layer; below that, add a liner or wear more layers.
How does it compare with the REI Magma 30?
The Magma 30 is lighter and suited to summer and mild shoulder seasons. The 15 adds roughly half a pound but extends comfortable use into freezing nights.
What size sleeper does the short fit?
The short fits people up to 65 inches with a 61.5-inch shoulder girth and 53-inch hip girth. Taller sleepers should look at the regular or long sizes.
Is the down treated for wet weather?
Yes. The down is water-resistant and the recycled ripstop shell has a DWR finish, so light condensation and damp tents are less of a problem.
What comes with the bag?
It ships with a stuff sack and a larger storage sack for loft retention. A sleeping pad is not included.
When is the best time to buy it?
REI discounts sleeping bags most during its member sales and end-of-season clearance in late summer and fall. The current $278.93 at REI as of November 4, 2026, is already near the low end of its range.
Where is the REI Co-op Magma 15 Sleeping Bag Purple Short cheapest?
At REI, for $278.93, as of our latest check.
What do buyers say about the REI Co-op Magma 15 Sleeping Bag Purple Short?
Rated 4.2 out of 5 from 50 ratings.
