Classic sleeping bags
A classic sleeping bag, also called a blanket or rectangular sleeping bag, is the sleeping bag as we originally know it. The design is straightforward and can often be fully unzipped, letting you use it as a regular blanket too. The classic sleeping bag is available in various sizes and thicknesses; read the product description carefully to find out the dimensions of the particular sleeping bag and what temperatures it's suited to.
What is a classic sleeping bag?
A classic sleeping bag, also called a blanket-style sleeping bag, is just as wide at shoulder height as at the feet. The advantage of this design from Highlander or The North Face is that you have quite a lot of freedom of movement, avoiding a cramped feeling. The sleeping bag can often be fully unzipped and then used as a regular blanket too.
When do you choose a classic sleeping bag?
A classic sleeping bag is ideal if you're not sleeping in extremely cold conditions and value freedom of movement. Going camping in cold regions instead? Then a mummy sleeping bag is the better choice, as it lets less heat escape.
