For the no-frills gal who thumbs her nose at floral details and feminine colors, Marmot’s ultralight synthetic bag delivers women’s features in gender-neutral style. Primaloft Sport insulation crushes almost as well as down, and there’s extra fill at the feet, hip, and shoulder. 25ºF, 1.9 lbs; www.marmot.com
Bonus: There’s no Velcro at the closure—hence nothing to get caught in your hair.
Bummer: The hood is too small for a pillow.
