There's no more being bothered by bugs thanks to Grüezi Bag's integrated 3D mosquito net. Cameron Martindell

Safe Slumber
Those wool benefits alone make this bag a winner. Even better? It includes an integrated 3D mosquito net to keep annoying bugs out. It's suspended over the head and face by three small arched rods to keep the both net and the bugs away from any skin contact. All done? The net stows in a pocket on the packsack.
The Biopod Wool Survival is a robust and moisture-resistant sleeping bag with cozy Lavalan AlmWolle insulation regulates the microclimate when you are snuggled in. Bodies are always releasing moisture and if a sleeping bag cannot expel that humidity, it gets chilly inside the bag. But wool absorbs moisture and passes it on to the outside, which avoid evaporative cooling in cold climates. This regulation keeps the sleeper dry and comfortable. Plus, that wool also keeps the sleeper warm, even when damp.

A zipper at the foot of the bag allows for extra ventilation when needed and lets the user stick their feet out and on top of the sleeping bag.

The outer fabric is robust and is equipped with anti-slip nap strips on the underside. This prevents the bag from slipping off of the sleeping matt even if the ground is not completely flat.
Stable & Durable
Stuff the pillow compartment with a fleece jacket or extra layers for a pillow that will stay put during the night.
