Snuggle up

Trick your body and mind into believing they’re in the Mediterranean this autumn/winter thanks to Trakker’s truly biblical 365 AS Sleeping Bag System

What you’re looking at right now is the real reason why the garden will look like a jungle, the bins won’t have been put out for a month and you’ll have grown a beard to rival that of Gaz Fareham’s. Cast your eye down any bankside and you’ll see hundreds of sleeping bags, none, however, will look, feel or perform like Trakker’s AS 365 Sleep System you see pictured before you.

The double-layered bag system allows you to be cool in the summer and roasting in the winter

The original 365 bag from 2008 was an all-year winner thanks to its dual layering system. The outer shell was waterproof and breathable and offered three-season protection, and when the inner shell was toggled in, it turned into a 5-season sauna – even on the coldest of winter nights. And better still, said inner shell was also reversible, giving the option of fleece or ultra soft polyester. It was an out and out winner – but last year Trakker made it even better…

As per usual with all Trakker products, only the finest materials and components have been used

The inner shell now zips in; the insulation is now their award-winning Q7 hollowfibre filling; there are internal baffles for less heat loss; external baffles to stop air penetrating the zips, and talking of zips, these are now three-quarter length to improve heat reduction in the last quarter of the bag. And there’s now also a unique fixing strap design to ensure once you’ve strapped it to your bed, it’s not coming off.

It’s all in the detailing

When it comes to space you’ll find there’s plenty of that thanks to measuring a whopping 215(L) x 91(W)cm, allowing you to roll over and move around with ease. And add in a compression sack and dual-sided crash zips for quick exits and you’ve got a bag that’ll keep you warm and snug throughout the whole year, come rain, sun, sleet or snow. Here’s to a new life – a life on the bank!
