Backpacking Sleeping Bag Rentals from Gearhouse Seattle

Choosing the Best Bag for YOU and your trip!

Choosing a sleeping bag is important for both safety and comfort in the backcountry. Things to consider when selecting a sleeping bag is warmth rating (both for the climate and your personal comfort preference), size (the distribution of insulating material throughout the bag), and weight (especially for multi-day adventures or beginners). Other factors to consider is the materials used (down or synthetic) and other features that may support a well rested night to help power you through the miles to come! 

At Gearhouse, we offer a variety of sleeping bag sizes, temperature ratings, and styles to help you get your best beauty sleep on the trails! We encourage you to consider sleeping bags as one, albeit essential, part of your backpacking sleep system (sleeping bag, liner, and sleeping pad) to cover all your bases. Check out of 3- and 4-Season Sleeping Pad Rental options to finish out your backpacking sleep system!
