I have a set of down long johns and tops. That coupled with the wool pants and layers I’m already wearing would probably be just as warm. Heck, I could throw in the down booties as well!
to be honest, it sounds like you'll be much warmer than me in that down gear! This was "okay" but i wouldn't want to sleep out in temperatures much colder than it was (12 degrees C).. . even though it is advertised for 7c. However of course for science i'll definetly be giving it a try in the up coming winter months
Brilliant fella. My go-to is always to use the sleeping bag as a duvet. Turn it upside down, stick my feet in and pull it over me, job done. Great bit of kit that for sitting round camp enjoying toasted marshmallows and ghost stories ;)
Congratulations on the work, but let me make some comments that I think are creative. 1) An inflatable mattress at the bottom of the hammock works best, as it creates a straighter surface, making it less difficult to use normal sleeping bags. 2) Regarding the blue sleeping bag, my son said you looked like a character from Roblox, a computer game. In relation to this, I recommended putting elastic bands on the outside of your wrists and wearing gloves in cold weather. Leave the "gloves" of the sleeping bag half open to help with full ventilation. This way, it would be much easier to manage the rest of the sleeping bag if necessary. I have a friend who has something similar, Chinese made and, with the modifications I wrote, he has done well. He uses it only in spring or autumn...
Appreciate the comment and the feedback. I don't like the thought of a sleeping pad in a hammock, although of course I'll give it ago. Lol my son plays Roblox to so I'll get him to show me. Thanks for watching hope you stick around to see round 2?
I use a 20f down underquilt + down topquilt then layer in cold weather by wearing down ski pants + polyester puffy jacket + gloves, can handle temps down to 10F. The down ski pants compress down to the size of a beer can.
Oh wow that's some cold weather!! Not sure if you've seen any of my other hammock camps, but I've struggled with keeping warm throughout the night at 41+f 😔. Really need to upgrade my winter kit. . But it can be costly can't it $$$
A sleeping bag and a hammock , step into the bag before getting in the hammock. That's something any hammock camper knows after the 1st trip. Myself I like a quilt ( open sleeping bag ) over me and a self inflating mattress ( about 3/4 inflated ) under me. If you want to do it right then get a double bottom hammock and slip the air mattress into the area between the two bottoms , it will stay where you put it.
I don't disagree with the way you mention about getting into your sleeping bag and I often do that too to be honest, although in this situation the floor in the woods was so muddy so not really an option. . .unless of course one doesn't mind a dirty sleeping bag (not personally for me that)
haha i know that feeling David, that suit was actually not a bad sleeping companion haha full video out now ua-cam.com/video/nqPQxoRgNyM/v-deo.htmlsi=_mfSYgfQi2oHmyTU
Interesting concept, thanks for sharing. For a hammock, I would remove all the back insulation to make it lighter and less bulky and then pair it with an under quilt. Otherwise all that insulation is going to get compressed between your body and the hammock, effectively defeating its purpose, so might as well get rid of it altogether and save weight.
Oh absolutely, it was cheap I thought it was worth a punt , I'm planning to spend the night in it soon. . . But the overnight weather in the UK is far too warm at the moment to actually need it. Hopefully you stick around and are subscribed 🙏 to see that video. New video every Friday on this channel 👌🏆
😂😂😂😂 great vid Rob, you getting in the sleeping bag had me in stitches, i honestly dont find it to bad, but i think quilts are the way to go for hammocking. I think the concept is great (i have seen variations of this style) but its a bit heavy and bulky for anything but car camping or on sites. Be great if the likes of nature hike extended their down pants into a down suit, that would be a lot lighter and way more packable 👌👍
Thanks Mick. . You really wouldn't believe I actually filmed me getting in twice, once on my own (which was very difficult to film) then my wife unexpectedly turned up with the dog, so I asked her to film which made it alot easier! Totally agree it's a great concept, om in two minds whether to keep it for caravan adventures sat round the fire at night or do a camp in it and take it back 🤫as you say far far to bulky to actually carry on any hike! I'd love a quilt, but currently out of my ££ range. Interesting to hear you don't find it too bad to get into a hammock. . . In fact I challenge you @mickoutdoors to make a video showing how you get into a sleeping bag in a hammock 😂👍💪
I can't afford a quilt either so I've thought a lot about modifying cheap off the shelf gear. My current thinking is a cheap centre zip, mummy sleeping bag. When you unzip it and put it over you it's pretty much the same shape as a top quilt. The Highlander Trekker bags are the only ones I can find in the price range. You get a narrow footbox then of course it flares out wide up at your shoulders. The hood tucks down inside as a draught excluder. I previously put a lot of time into modifying snugpak jungle blankets but tbh I don't think it was worth the effort in the end.
@@RobOutdoor I put a slit in the foot of an old sleeping bag and installed a pair of zippers, Run your suspension through that to a tree and your hammock is inside the sleeping bag, kind of like a all-around underquilt/topquilt. You can also do another slit above the shoulderbaffle and feed the head end susp through so that you get the hood part inside but you may need to allow for a drawcord to tighten the head end up. 🙂🤘

Hopefully you stick around for round 2? I need the temperature to drop slightly here so I can try it out overnight 🤣
I got the Selk’bag sleeping bag suit years ago, thought the same thing, that maybe it might be a good alternative for someone who rolls around. But... too heavy for backpacking, the feet are too heavy (the new ones have zip off feet). But... I have worn it around camp in the cold and it is nice and warm and getting up in the middle of the night to pee, you stay mostly warm. Overall, not worth it. I use it as my winter car emergency warmth system up north here. As far as the hammock, I have a Hennessy with a pad insert and I use a quilt on top. Far easier to get in and out of.
Totally agree it's probably not worth it in the long run, it's just as big (albeit alot lighter) than my winter sleeping bag. Totally honest its the 1st I've actually seen of this type of system but they seem to have been around for a while! Think I'll probably do a camp in it just to say I have. I really must be missing something, alot of people use a pad in their hammock, but although I've never tried it, I don't actually like the thought of it. . Maybe I am missing something 🤔

Yes I'm about 6ft 2 (no bigger. . Maybe slightly smaller) fit was perfect. . Except the hood. I find it really strange that it has built in feet and hands but the hood is so small. . . either that or I've got a big head 😂🤔
Hope enjoy it Mark, I'm increo minds what to do with it, i feel it's too big to carry on a hike for a camp but at the same time I think its pretty good. Not so sure it'll suffice for the temperature range though, would like to hear how you find it once you use it?
If you put an inflatable sleeping pad in the sleeping bag or beneath it in the hammock, its rigidity makes it easier to get in and out of the bag and hammock.
See I've never really liked the thought of a sleeping pad in a hammock. . I don't know why but I like the feeling of the natural lay when I'm asleep. . Saying that I've never tried it so it could be a game changer 🤔
I saw these in Aldi's and did wonder what they would be like, I can see a benefit for someone who moves around a lot at night, having a pee could be easier and getting in and out of a bivi bag might be easier. The obvious downside is looking a dick and the colour. Jury is out on this one!

Try getting into your sleeping bag while you are standing at the side of your hammock - then sit down in the hammock & swing your legs in. I'd replace those zips on the hands with velcro strips
That is a good idea and I have done that before, however doesn't always work depending on where camping. . . Like this particular woodland it's too muddy to drag the bag on the floor. Velcro isn't a bad idea for the hands. Although I'm not convinced I'm keeping it yet, it's far to big for anything except car camping

Unfortunately everything is a rip of these days isn't it. Was yours just as bulky as this one to carry packed? Sounds like a perfect idea for unheated vehicles! Thanks for watching and commenting I hope you stick around for my camp? 😂😂
Sleep with a Gatorade bottle…. Roll over , pee, go back to sleep…..
