Selk’bag sleeping bag body suit

Posted in Apparel,Outdoors by Reuben Drake on October 14th, 2007

The Lippi Selk-bag is a sleeping bag with arms and legs to let you move around and stay warmLooking like a great big over-stuffed snowmobile suit, the Lippi Selk’bag is a “sleep wear system” solution to the restrictions of conventional sleeping bags. Named from the Chilean nomads, the Selk’nam, who had a great resilience for the cold the Selk’bag has a hood, arms and legs giving you the ability to move around freely while staying warm inside your bag. On those cold mornings of camping simply standing up without getting out of your bag is hard enough not to mention trying to shuffle or hop around.

The Selk’bag is made with a Nylon shell and a Polyester hollow fiber bonded filling giving it an “extreme temp” rating of -8.4 degrees celcius. It also appears to have zippers to close up at the end of the arms and vent your legs and sides if you get too hot. But, unlike our full-body underwear we’re not seeing an opening to let us pee without taking it all off, which is the primary reason we’re usually getting up when it’s still cold outside in the first place.

It comes in four sizes of small, medium, large and extra large and in colors of yellow and green for about $180.

    I ordered and returned a Selk bag with the assitance of Chris at Tetonviliagesports.com. The first bag was a large and the butt area was too small. He assisted me in that order, then I called back to let him know it was too small and that the advertisement on the web page said that the large size was 72 inches in the butt area which was incorrect. Order #43277. Chris sent me another size of XL, and the butt area was the same size, it was only longer, not larger. The web site is falsely advertising the size. I called Chris yesterday and he said that he will get back to me about a larger size. Today, I haven;t heard anything. I may need to send this item back because I need something that I can wear/use now. I had to take my old sleeping bag to camping with on on 9-11 April. This is not a game to me. the advertisement is falsely and the assistance I got was misleadig twice. I specifically told Chris my butt size was 55 with a smaller top area and he sent me two sleeping walking suit for cold weather too small.
