  Product Description
The Vango Mantis 200 is a lightweight 2-season sleeping bag built around Vango's ThermX construction system. This mummy-shaped bag weighs 1.06kg and features a 9°C comfort rating with a 4°C limit rating, making it suitable for spring and summer camping in the UK and similar temperate climates. Both the shell and lining use recycled 40 denier ripstop nylon, providing water resistance and durability while keeping pack size to a minimum. The bag accommodates users up to 190cm tall with an internal length of 205cm and a chest width of 78cm.

How does Vango's ThermX design improve warmth without adding weight?


ThermX combines two heat-retention technologies in a single bag. Thermal Reverb uses strategically placed aluminised fabric layers to reflect body heat back to the sleeper, while Thermal Embrace incorporates elasticated threads in the lining that gently draw the bag closer to your body. Together, these reduce cold spots and dead air space without requiring additional fill weight, resulting in a smaller pack size and better warmth-to-weight ratio than standard synthetic constructions.

The Mantis 200 uses 4T Eco recycled synthetic filling throughout. The Omega shaping positions zips and seams in the lower section of the bag where they won't create heat loss points around your core. An insulated ergonomic shoulder baffle sits snugly around your neck and shoulders to prevent warm air escaping, while the 2-panel 3D hood wraps closely around your head. At the other end, the redesigned Arrow Foot 2.0 footbox gives your feet room to move naturally while still minimising heat loss. The full-length two-way auto-lock zip includes anti-snag piping and an insulated zip baffle to eliminate cold spots along the opening. All temperature ratings are independently certified to ISO 23537-1:2022 standards, giving you reliable comparison data when choosing between bags from different manufacturers. The bag comes with a 3-strap compression stuffsack and includes an internal pocket for storing small items like a phone or head torch.

Frequently Asked Questions

What temperature is the Vango Mantis 200 suitable for?
The Vango Mantis 200 has a comfort rating of 9°C, a limit rating of 4°C and an extreme rating of -9°C. These figures are independently certified to ISO 23537-1:2022 standards. The bag performs best in spring and summer conditions where overnight temperatures stay above 4°C, making it a 2-season sleeping bag for UK camping.
What does ThermX technology do in a sleeping bag?
ThermX is Vango's proprietary construction system that combines two technologies. Thermal Reverb places non-woven aluminised fabric layers at strategic points to reflect body heat back to the sleeper. Thermal Embrace uses elasticated threads in the lining to gently draw the bag closer to your body without restricting movement. This combination targets warmth where you need it most and improves the warmth-to-weight ratio compared to standard synthetic bags.
Is the Vango Mantis 200 suitable for backpacking?
Yes, the Mantis 200 weighs 1.06kg and comes with a 3-strap compression stuffsack designed to reduce pack size without compromising compressibility. The recycled 40 denier ripstop nylon shell and lining are highly compressible while remaining tear resistant. For lightweight trekking in spring and summer conditions, it provides a practical balance between warmth and portability.
What size person does the Vango Mantis 200 fit?
The Mantis 200 fits users up to 190cm tall. Internal dimensions are 205cm length, 78cm chest width and 48cm foot width. The mummy shape with Omega shaping is ergonomically tailored around the head and shoulders for heat efficiency, while the Arrow Foot 2.0 footbox provides room for natural foot movement.
Is the Vango Mantis 200 made from recycled materials?
Yes, the Mantis 200 uses recycled materials throughout. The 40 denier ripstop nylon shell fabric and lining fabric are both made from recycled nylon. The bag is filled with 4T Eco recycled synthetic filling. These materials maintain full performance while reducing environmental impact compared to virgin materials.
What does ISO 23537-1:2022 certification mean for sleeping bags?
ISO 23537-1:2022 is the international standard for testing sleeping bag temperature ratings. It uses a heated mannequin with temperature sensors in controlled laboratory conditions to measure heat retention. This standardised testing means you can reliably compare temperature ratings between different brands and models. The Mantis 200 temperature ratings have been independently verified using this testing protocol.
What is the difference between the Mantis 200, 300 and 400?
The Vango Mantis range offers different warmth levels using the same ThermX construction. The Mantis 200 is the lightest at 1.06kg with a 9°C comfort rating for 2-season use. The Mantis 300 weighs 1.34kg with additional insulation for cooler conditions. The Mantis 400 weighs 1.44kg and provides the warmest rating in the range. All three share the same recycled materials, Thermal Reverb and Thermal Embrace technologies.
