Size chart

The Cocoon line is made by Bozeman Mountain Works for BPL. The size chart is on the BMW website:

They are excellent products!

Bill,

Thanks for the response and link to the chart! I somehow missed the Cocoon connection to BMW. I looked and found that I had already bookmarked the BMW web site with other gear companies.

Have a great day!

Hi,

I ordered the cocoon pants and hoodie in M, hesitating with the size S since I usually would fit small size.

The products are ample and wou look like a cosmonaut in them. May be due to this space gray colour…

But in the end I reconsidered sending them back since using the pants as overpants is great.
Hoodie over other stuff also will work great.

So my advice would be to define your usage clearly.
And in the end the weight penalty of the bigger size is relative – even if when purchasing cocoon stuff, weight is the issue…

I am looking for non-down insulated clothing options for when temps range between 40 to 25 degrees. My trips are generally in the hardwood forests of Kentucky, Tennessee, Indiana, Ohio, and West Virginia. I'd like to eventually do a trip down in the Smokies and/or sections of the AT. It almost always rains when I go backpacking.

My current pack weight is down considerably from the former 50-55 lbs. that it was. I'm looking to replace my 300 wt. fleece hoody and 200 wt. fleece sweater/jacket with something light, compact, and WARM! My current outfit is good for temps down to, say, about 45-50 degrees and weighs about 18-21 lbs. with no food or water. I was looking at the Montbell Thermawrap Parka before I joined BPL. Now I have a few more options to consider.

I'm not an ultra-lighter, yet, and I don't know if I ever will be, but I am headed in that direction. So far I've gotten my total weekend pack load down to about 30-32 lbs. I'm having trouble parting with my water purifier system, sigh!
