Square Sleeping Bag

Aaaahhhh, the rectangular sleeping bag, what can I say about a Rectangular sleeping bag except it is older than me? With all jokes aside if you are looking for a great first sleeping bag or a sleeping bag with a little more room for those car camping trips than you are in the right place. A rectangular sleeping bag is a great option for the claustrophobic folks out there. There are also hybrid options which are a mix between a mummy bag and a rectangular sleeping bag. Hybrid bags are basically a rectangular sleeping bag with a hood and a little narrower.

Square Sleeping Bag

A rectangular sleeping bag tends to be a bit heavier and bulkier than a mummy sleeping bag but for most people, this is not a concern because their rectangular sleeping bag will go from, car to tent and then back in the car. When considering a rectangular sleeping bag, remember that most have a synthetic fill which will keep you warm even if it gets wet, like in a rain storm. There still are a few versions of the rectangular sleeping bag with down fill but since weight isn’t normally an issue and cost is, when choosing a rectangular sleeping bag typically you will find that most rectangular sleeping bags use a synthetic fill.
