sleeping bags

Hey all! I have a question about what to get for hammock padding. I have heard about under quilts, but, as English is not my first language, I don’t really know what I’m looking for when someone mentions it. I also heard about inflatable padding. Which one and which brand would be the best...

A while back I made a hitch to Nicaragua to visit my pimpalicious surfing buddy. I traveled light taking a tingguian tribe hammock ( From the Philippines). my patched up old army poncho, and a Snugpak Jungle Blanket. I had done a bit of research on a blanket for the tropics and saw the Snugpak...

title says it all? I have a pretty decent tarp but only evee use it to sleep, does a bivy make that much of a difference?

To bindle or not to bindle? That is the question.

Hey guys, I guess everyone here is going to recommend me WM Summerlite, but I am low on budget for now and certainly can't spend 380$ for a sleeping bag. I'm looking for an alternative US-made sleeping bag, if possible goose down, duck or dri-down, hooded mummy. All US-made bags are relatively...

Would imagine many are familiar with the UL Shoestring Guide on r/Ultralight, and I wanted to share my experience with the Hammock Gear Economy Burrow 20. It's the old style with snap buttons to close the footbox and is standard length, width, and fill. Went with standard width and fill to keep...

In a bad spot but got plenty of litter? Here's an easy chain crochet using plastic bags as a sleep mat. Bonus points, throw this whole thing in a bin bag lined with newspaper and you've got a pretty cozy thermal sleep mat!

Me and my boy lost our blankets, this guy is suppose to give us a sleeping bag, but need to call him and have no access to a phone and don't have a phone card, there is this used clothing place down the road, its a catholic used clothing store, they let you buy items with whatever amount of...

I just bought this: It's 30" wide and it came in the mail today; it's got to be the most comfortable pad I've ever owned. It's more comfortable than a regular bed. Weighing in at 1lb 12oz, it's hefty, but it packs down small, and seems to be worth the weight. I've been skeptical of air pads...

I have the Modular sleeping system 4 -piece (technically it's 3 because the compression sack shouldn't count, but I digress) I do not trust the plastic slide stop buckles that lock the straps in place while you're compressing it. It hasn't happened yet, but they will break. I've had plenty of...

So I am trying to get a better sleeping bag then the one I currently have. The one I have is just one from target, it's not meant for much more than sleeping in like a cabin or something. The funds are low so does anyone know a good sleeping bag I can get that isn't going to break the bank? Thanks!

So, the zipper on my sleeping bag separated, and wouldn't zip up anymore. I looked around the interwebs for a bit, and I found a solution. SPOILER ALERT: It fucking works. I've already tried the method in the video, and now my sleeping bag zips up perfectly again...

Let's get math-y in here. This thread is about experience and suggested methods of sleeping bag/ bed roll usage in an area and temperature. The format is as follows: Brand name, nickname of sleeping bag or bedroll with contents Any add ons that you or someone else else added Time of year Your...

For three bucks, I scored a military wool sleeping bag liner thing that looks like this: and I'm thinking about felting (washing and drying it hot to get those fibers nice and tight) and using it as a sleeping pad. I've never slept with one of those inflatable/foam pads before, mostly just...

The pibbles sleeping bag ^^^ They're pretty decent bags for the price and cabelas is always having sales. The come in 0, -15, -30 degrees. I roll with the -30 mostly but in warmer weather I'll sleep on top of it and use a fleece blanket...

I noticed something; I see a lot of credit going to sleeping bags, but let's talk about bed rolls for a second. ::soapbox:: Before I started traveling, when I was a whee - in fact, I learned how to make a bed roll. I mean, the SMALLEST, makeshifty-est bed roll type thing. I feel like a bed roll...

A few days ago I got to thinking on ways to compact my bag, the proposed solution I had was to instead of using a intermediate sleeping bag and bivy. I would use two patrol bags and a bivy. Hoping to cut weight but at the least down size the kit to a more compressible set up and still maintain...
