FAQs

What is the main advantage of the antibacterial fabric?

The antibacterial and antimicrobial treatment discourages the growth of bacteria, which helps reduce odors and the need for frequent washing, keeping the bag fresher for longer, especially during extended trips.

How effective is the mosquito net?

The built-in, rollaway mosquito net provides protection against biting insects, ensuring a more comfortable and restful night's sleep in areas where mosquitoes or other small insects are present.

What are the temperature limits for this sleeping bag?

The comfort temperature rating is 7°C (45°F), and the low temperature rating is 2°C (36°F). It is best suited for mild to warm conditions.

How small does this sleeping bag pack down?

It compresses down to an incredibly small size, with a packed dimension of approximately 18cm x 15cm (7" x 6"), making it highly portable.

Can I wash the sleeping bag in a washing machine?

Yes, it is machine washable on a gentle cycle with a mild detergent. Avoid bleach and fabric softeners. Ensure it is thoroughly dried afterward.

What is the weight of the Travelpak 1?

The sleeping bag weighs 850g, making it exceptionally lightweight for travel and backpacking.

Is the mosquito net permanently attached?

Yes, the mosquito net is integrated into the sleeping bag but can be rolled away neatly when not in use.

Troubleshooting

Mosquito net is difficult to deploy or retract.

Ensure the net is not tangled. Gently pull the drawstrings to deploy or secure. If damaged, contact customer support.

Sleeping bag feels damp or clammy.

This can be due to high humidity or insufficient ventilation. Open the sleeping bag slightly or use in a more ventilated area. Ensure you are not sweating excessively inside.

Sleeping bag does not feel warm enough.

The comfort rating is 7°C. For colder temperatures, layer clothing, use a sleeping bag liner, or consider a warmer-rated sleeping bag.

Persistent odor despite antibacterial fabric.

While antibacterial, the fabric is not odor-proof. Wash the sleeping bag according to care instructions. Ensure it is completely dry before storing.

Setup, Compatibility & Care

Setup: The Travelpak 1 requires no complex setup. Unpack it from its compression stuff sack and allow it to expand. The mosquito net can be deployed over your head and secured, or rolled away neatly when not in use. The bag is designed for immediate use.

Compatibility: This sleeping bag is designed for use in temperatures down to 7°C (comfort) and 2°C (low). It is compatible with most sleeping mats. The left-hand zip is a standard feature.

Care:

  1. Washing: Machine washable on a gentle cycle with a mild detergent. Avoid fabric softeners. Do not bleach or dry clean.
  2. Drying: Tumble dry on a low heat setting or hang dry in a well-ventilated area. Ensure the bag is completely dry before storing to prevent mildew.
