The new sleeping bag. Synthetic insulation.

This thing looks really big, and heavy.... is it?

New sleeping system covers all the bases, from Iraq to the Arctic - Canada.ca

They may not be the first thing that comes to mind when we think about a modern military force, but sleeping bags are vital equipment, and the Canadian Army (CA) is introducing a new type that will keep soldiers warm and healthy in all kinds of weather.

It’s about half the weight, packs smaller too. Reality is sleeping bags and synthetic fill have gotten much better since the 1980s. It’s also a mummy bag which is a nice step. Being able to machine wash it is also nice.

Good news!

The only problem I've ever had with synthetic bags is the size and weight.

Hey I’m not dealing with a lot of regular army stuff. Sometimes if you try hard you get to dress like a cool kid.
