A sleeping bag specifically made for the side sleepers of the world! Big Agnes has made an ergonomically designed bag, so you are no longer wrestling your bag for a good night’s sleep.
Big Agnes says:
The patent pending Sidewinder Camp is designed specifically for those who sleep on their sides and prefer to explore the best of the outdoors by car, van, camper and setting up camp from home. With a unique fit that is plush and relaxed while keeping insulation close to the body, this cocoon style pattern creates a 360-degree wrap to give you that cozy tucked in feeling, like a hug. The Sidewinder Camp was designed as a relaxed fit for side sleepers who take camp comfort seriously. Our Women’s specific bags differ in shape and fill weight with a less drastic taper from shoulders, to hips, to feet - reducing cold spots and creating more warmth where it counts.
Our Verdict
Side sleeping in a regular bag can be uncomfortable for some; they can be hard to toss and turn in, get wrapped up in the bag, and sometimes it can make the bag cooler as you blow condensation into the side of the bag as you sleep.
This sleeping bag has a unique “cocoon” style relaxed fit that keeps the insolation where you need it, close to the body; the ergonomic design stops cold air from entering the bag when you sleep on your side. Extra Insulation has been added to the feet and hips to help alleviate pressure points.
The bag opens up, like a quilt you drape around yourself, with two hand-warming pockets in either corner so that you can wrap the top of the bag around yourself, so whether you sleep on your left or your right or toss and turn and do a little of both, you have full coverage of sleeping bag swaddling you. Another advantage of this is that your pillow will stay in place!
The women’s specific bag differs in size, shape and fill weight; areas, where more insulation is needed have been overstuffed to create fewer cold spots.
