Cocoon Ripstop Silk Bag Liner

While looking around for a new sleeping pad today, I found a great addition to my summer camping gear. The Cocoon Ripstop Silk Bag Liner. If you've never used one before, a sleeping bag liner is a great way to improve the temperature rating of your bag, provide a quick drying moisture liner and keep the bag cleaner and longer between cleaning cycles.

This specific bag liner is made of a woven ripstop silk to increase durability. The bag should add 9.5° F to your current bags rated cold temperature threshold, which may allow you to use your lighter summer bags longer into the season. Alternatively if the night is warmer than you had planned for, you can use the Silk liner sans sleeping bag for a more comfortable night out.

The Cocoon Ripstop bags are available from REI for $40 - $65.

Cocoon Ripstop Silk Bag Liner: 6.5 ounces, dim. 86" x 35", stuffs to 2" x 5"
Cocoon Ripstop Silk Mummy Liner: 4.7 ounces, dim. 95" (shoulder) x 35" (foot) x 22", stuffs to 2.5" x 6"

Also Available: Cocoon CoolMax Mummy Liner: 9 ounces, CoolMax polyester, adds +8 degrees, $40
