The Selk’bag is NOT Your Ordinary Sleeping Bag!

Selk'bag First ImageThe Selk’bag is definitely one of those Why Didn’t I Think Of That? creations. It’s a sleeping bag that you wear.  Genius!

Inspired by the lost Selk’nam natives of Tierra del Fuego, Chile, the Selk’bag has a rich history of innovation, technical proficiency, and worldwide recognition from its creation in 2006 through today. What is a Selk’bag? A Selk’bag is essentially a wearable, human-shaped sleeping bag…and it’s awesome!  Our customers love us for the comfort, warmth and versatility of the Selk’bag and how it allows them to experience these qualities virtually anywhere, awake or asleep!

The Selk’bag comes in a number of different sizes (and colors) for both kids and adults, to insure the most comfortable safe fit.” Featuring removable booties, a kangaroo pocket, and a redesigned shape.” Besides the 5G Original, 5G Kids model, 5G Lite (which weighs 10% less than the 5G Adult) and Patagon models, there is a Marvel series for the wanna be super heroes!

I received a 5G Original Selk’bag in Evergreen, for one of my sons-in-law. He is a real outdoors-man and I’m sure he will get years and years of enjoyment from it. I am truly impressed at just how light weight it is…just 4.1 lbs. (size large). I would imagine that he won’t just be sleeping in it, as he is an avid snowboarder. The sizing chart made it easy to figure out which is right for him.

Each Slek’bag come in its own matching carrying sack.

Key Features 5G Original:
• Zip-off booties so you can wear your own shoes when active, or the booties when sleeping
• Better two-dimensional, anatomical fit for increased comfort and lighter weight
• A kangaroo-style pocket in the front so you can rest your arms or your stuff easily accessible
• Leg vents help to regulate temperature for times when you get too warm
• Baffled construction helps to eliminate cold spots
• A soft nylon shell with ripstop with a water resistant finish (DWR)
• Double front entry-zippers make for quick entry
• An insulated hood for added warmth
• Thermal collar around the head and neck to prevent drafts
• Exaggerated draft tubes to stop heat loss around zippers
• Redesigned zipper tape prevents snags
• A convenient carry sack for compact portability

My son would absolutely LOVE this! He’s the outdoors man and spends most of his time in nature, camping, hiking and such. As a mother I often worry whether or not he keeps warm. This would be perfect for him!

This product delivers amazing, well-thought idea with the answer to a great need – in greater extent than the common sleeping bag. It’s an item that I know will be put towards great use not only by me presently but in the future by that of those in which otherwise cant afford the item.

This is a brilliant idea. I really want one. These would be perfect when you are camping. You wouldn’t have to get out of your sleeping bag when you first wake up and it is really cold out.

LOL Oh yes, when you live where one is expected to actually DO things outside even at 10 degrees…. well, one throws out “fashionable” or chic really fast. Chic doesn’t keep you warm one bit. I am expected to go watch snowmobile races. I’m expected to to ice fishing in a little tent.. YIKES. I could use one of these. Looks good to me.

These Selk’ Bags are really something! My son has recently started to camp with our 2 Grandkids…which means I’d need 3 🙂 I like that the booties are removable! I do wish that the kids sizes came in the Marvel Characters.
