Ace Camping

Rectangular sleeping bags are ideal for Summer camping weekends that don’t involve climbing mountains or visiting the Arctic Circle.

A lot of fuss is made of the amazing thermal properties of mummy bags by hardened campers. You know the type, they make Navy Seals look soft!

But I’ll kill off that myth right here: Not everyone NEEDS military strength equipment!

If you only plan to go camping AFTER checking that the weather report is favorable then you know that the night temperature is likely to be quite pleasant. In these situations rectangular sleeping bags are supremely comfortable.

Think about it, you don’t close all your windows and bury yourself under a thick duvet every single night of the year do you? If the nights are balmy enough for open windows and a thin blanket then a rectangular bag will be ideal.

The great advantage of a rectangular bag is the amount of space you have. For people who move around a lot in their sleep, this is a godsend!
