Spending the night out in the open and without a bed is indeed a dreadful thought. One has to endure the discomfort of making do with what one can with blankets and pillows if one is lucky enough to have one. And yet, it does not come close anywhere to what a bed is. Sleeping bags were designed precisely to provide as good a feel as a bed. It provides the warmth and the insulation. It is also comfortable. And to top it, you can lug it around as a backpack. It is just the right thing to take along when one is camping out.

While sleeping outside one has to be wary of the wind and the precipitation. The sleeping bags are designed precisely to protect you from these. It covers you up cozily protecting you from the exterior. Synthetic fills are used such as PrimaLoft as the insulating materials. Another commonly used material is the down fill. Though cotton or wool too is used, these are not popular. Insulation is better in the synthetic fill bags. Water absorption is also poor and it keeps you dry in wet conditions. You can carry the synthetic bag with you just as you would a folded blanket. Heat retention is better in the down fill bag. But this is costlier than the synthetic fill bags.

Sleeping bags are available in two shapes namely the rectangular sleeping bag and the mummy shaped ones. The rectangular sleeping bags are bigger resembling a folded blanket that is zipped. It has straps or cords for securing the bag once it is folded. The mummy shaped bag has a broad and open portion at the shoulder tapering down as it comes to the leg side. It is smaller but has a better heat retention capacity. It cannot be folded but has to be rolled and stuffed into a sack for it to be carried easily. Sleeping bags are found with camping equipment dealers. A light sleeping bag that is comfortable is the marmot atom 40.

The down bags do not fare as much as the synthetic bags under wet conditions. The down bags are lighter. But the synthetic bags are cheaper. You will have to choose on the basis of the conditions you require your sleeping bag to be used. But rest assured that you will have a pleasant sleep.
