Choosing a suitable sleeping bag can not only improve the comfort of outdoor experience, but also ensure the safety and health of campers in various environments. This article will explore different types of sleeping bags and their respective characteristics and applicable scenarios.
Classification by shape
1. Mummy sleeping bag
- Features: The mummy sleeping bag has a human body contour shape, with a hood on the head, gradually narrowing towards the feet, minimizing internal air flow, and excellent warmth retention.
- Applicable scenarios: Suitable for campers in cold weather and high altitude areas. Due to its excellent thermal insulation effect, it is often used for winter camping and mountaineering activities.
2. Rectangular sleeping bag
