Camping Sleeping Bags Caring
Wednesday, May 19th, 2010
It does not take much effort to prolong the life of your camping sleeping bags. With only a few simple guidelines you will have a sleeping bag that will last year after year when you go camping. First thing to remember is always to keep your sleeping bag dry. A wet sleeping bag is worth next to nothing when it comes to keeping you warm. Should you be out of luck and should you get your camping sleeping bags wet it is very important that you dry the bags very well and let them hang to get aired thoroughly. Camping sleeping bags loose loft when they get wet. Loft is the measure that is used to let you know the puffiness of the bag and with that the ability to keep you warm.
This also means trying not to wash your camping sleeping bags to often. For some this might seem impossible because you use it outside when camping but with a small effort I am sure you can manage not having your sleeping bag washed every time you have been out. In the end if you have to wash/clean your bag try out with a sponge and some mild soap first before using the washer. If you do wash your sleeping bag make sure you give it time to dry thoroughly and make sure it gets fresh air. Some people might want to dry clean the sleeping bags but I can not recommend that.
Most campers buy camping sleeping bags to use it and of course it should be used and not hidden away because you think it might get dirty or ruined. You only have to pay attention to what and where the sleeping bag goes. Even when you jump in the bag at night you have to make sure you do not carry dirt inside the bag and wearing your outside clothes in the bag is a very bad idea because your clothes might be moist from you sweating or the night dew and all this will effect the sleeping bag liner which is inside the bag and eventually again it will reduce
loft.
The best way to make sure you are not dirty or your clothes are not the least moist I would recommend that you wear some long under-wears and a long sleeved shirt. This will also prevent that vapor from you when you are sleeping in the bare nothing will penetrate the sleeping bag liner and this way ruin your favorite camping sleeping bags.
During camp fire watch out – To many people want to get cosy at night and bring there camping sleeping bags to the camp fire but it does not take much effort from the fire to catch on to a sleeping bag. Now a days most sleeping bags has to meet requirements to withstand some kind of flame resistance but to be honest I would not play around with this option.
The last thing which most people tend to forget is storing your camping sleeping bags the right way. When you get to camp or when you are finished camping and get home make sure to get your sleeping bag out and let it get some air. Do not as most people do stuff your camping sleeping bags in a tight container or bag leave it in a place where it has space to “breathe”. Leaving your sleeping bag compressed for a longer period will reduce loft.
These are just a few simple guidelines which all are easy to follow and the will eventually save you money in the long run and for sure it will make your camping sleeping bags keep the same abilities as when you bought it.
