 
Double
Sleeping Bags
Keep yourself and your
partner warm with a double sleeping bag
A double sleeping bag is the popular choice when you are out
camping with a spouse or partner. There are many advantages to
a double sleeping bag over a tradtional single sleeping bag.
Most obvious is that there is plenty of room for one two full
sized adults to fit in the sleeping bag. Most double bags will
have enough room for you to roll over and not annoy the other
person too much. Be sure to check this before buying a bag,
because some double sleeping bags will only be large enough to
fit two people that are laying
flat.
The
next benefit is that you will stay extra warm. With two
people's body tempurature in the sleeping bag, you are
sure to stay very toasty. When you are by yourself,
sometimes it can be a bit cold in a single sleeping bag,
especially if you are in a place where the tempurature
drops very low at night. So it's great to have double
sleeping bags so you can stay nice and warm, next to your
partner.
Double
sleeping bags are also very nice for people that want to
be close. You will be inches away from your spouse or
signifigant other at all times, feeling very close and
loving the whole time. This may not be for everyone, but
for people that are in a relationship, it can be a nice
change to a traditional bed where people have different
sides and rarely move across "the
line".
Double
sleeping bags are usually a rectangular shape, instead of
round or narrow like tradtional sleeping bags. This makes
it much easier to fit into tents and other places where
space is a concern. Another benefit to these bags is a
zipper that runs all the way around the sleeping bag.
This allows you to split the sleeping bag into two
seperate sleeping bags. If you are in a situation where
there is not enough room, or you need to seperate, it's
nice to have this
feature.
Many
customers that have purchased double sleeping bags end up
sleeping on an air mattress or a double cot. When you
have two individual sleeping bags, they can slip off the
air mattress, making it akward and uncomfortable. With a
double sleeping bag, you fit squarly on the surface of
the air mattress and stay put for the whole night. This
allows you to get better sleep while campaing, which
sometimes can be very hard to achieve without your normal
bed and pillows.
Another
nice thing about most double sleeping bags is that they
are very warm, soft and waterproof. With the soft
material inside, you will barely know you are camping,
while you enjoy the comfort of your sleeping bag. It's
also important that it's waterproof, depending on the
conditions you are camping in. Many people in the North
West are used to putting up tarps and staying under trees
because it rains so much. If your double sleeping bag is
waterproof, then you don't have to worry about wetness,
if you are sleeping on the
ground.
