The Selkbag - The Sleeping Bag you can dance in.

If you have a fear of tight spaces and mummy bags don’t agree with you then the Selkbag from the Chilean outdoor apparel company, Lippi, might just be the right one for you.

The Selkbag is a sleeping that you wear and can even walk around in. Sounds crazy doesn’t it?

It’s really a cool concept. It offers the warmth of a sleeping bag but you can do other stuff as well like cooking, reading a book, sit near the campfire, etc.

The downside is that it’s a little bit heavier than the typical sleeping bag at around 3.7 pounds.

There are two versions currently available; Selkbag and Selkbag Adventure.

The normal Selkbag is made of polyester hollow fiber with breathable nylon lining and comes in two comfort ratings:  Tº: 9.7 ºC / 49.5 ºF Extreme Tº: 0 ºC / 32 ºF

The Selkbag Adventure is made of micro fiber (2 layers) with Nylon Taffeta shell and lining. This Selkbag also comes in 2 comfort ratings:t Tº: 8.8ºC / 47.8 ºF Extreme Tº: -9.8ºC / 14.4ºF

Two newer versions are the Selkbag Down and the Selkbag Prime.
