A repellent sleeping bag constructed from a protective material, the repellent sleeping bag having: a main body; and a plurality of seams; the protective material having a plurality of layers joined together via bias tape, the plurality of layers having: a first net layer; a second net layer; and a three-dimensional mesh layer between the first net layer and the second net layer, the three-dimensional mesh layer having a first mesh sheet and a second mesh sheet raised to a first height above the first mesh sheet; wherein the first mesh sheet and the second mesh sheet are associated together via a plurality of compressible elements; wherein the bias tape provided at each seam of the plurality of seams is sewn onto the first net layer, the three-dimensional mesh layer, and the second net layer.

The present invention relates to a thermal insulating structure including at least one baffle, to an article of wear and a sleeping bag including such a thermal insulating structure, and to a method for manufacturing such a thermal insulating structure. In some embodiments, the baffle includes a plurality of natural and/or synthetic down fibers and a plurality of low-melt fibers, wherein the low-melt fibers have been melted to the natural and/or synthetic down fibers by heating inside the baffle.

A sleeping bag includes a top cover and bottom sheet. The bottom sheet can be secured to a sleeping pad and includes a sheet portion and lateral flaps connected to the sheet portion along opposite lateral edges of the sleeping pad when the bottom sheet is secured thereto. The top cover and lateral flaps enable attachment, detachment, and reattachment of the lateral flaps along their lateral edges to a top cover outer surface along corresponding attachment paths displaced medially from top cover lateral edges, enabling a top cover headward portion to assume wrapped and expanded configurations, and enabling conversion between those configurations. When wrapped, headward portions of the top cover outer surface, that are lateral of the attachment paths, are positioned against the sheet portion; when expanded, the lateral flaps and lateral portions of the top cover extend upward or laterally away from the sleeping pad lateral edges.

Infant swaddling allows an infant to be comfortably and easily swaddled. The swaddling includes a pouch featuring a lower end that can be opened and closed to allow an infant's soiled diaper to be easily removed and replaced or to take a rectal temperature. The swaddling can include a blanket that comprises a first blanket flap and a second blanket flap and that can be removably attached to the pouch. The swaddle is used by placing one of the blanket flaps over the pouch, and then placing the other blanket flap over the pouch.

A standing handbag rack with charging station, having a vertical extending support structure having an upper portion and a lower portion, a base secured to the lower portion of the vertical extending support structure, one or more hooks for receiving a handbag or the like, the hooks are secured to the standing handbag rack, a tray secured to the vertical extending support structure, the tray including one or more cable openings, the tray adapted for receiving a portable electronic device, one or more power connectors provided at the tray, the power connector adaptable for coupling to a portable electronic device, a battery housing secured to the standing handbag rack, at least one cable, the cable having a first end and a second end, the first end connected to a power connector adaptable for extending through the cable opening for coupling to a portable electronic device, and the second end extending to the battery housing for coupling to a removable and rechargeable battery, for charging the portable electronic device.

A quilt usable as a sleeping bag has inner and outer sets of fasteners arranged on slanted paths from each side edge to the bottom edge and fasteners along the bottom edge. The fasteners hold the quilt in a wrapped, overlapping arrangement. With the fasteners engaged, pulling a draw cord across the quilt bottom edge gathers the bottom edge and forms a closed, wrapped footbox of the sleeping bag. A sheet for use with a sleeping bag quilt include two sets of fasteners arranged to engage corresponding fasteners on the quilt to attach the quilt to the sheet in an expanded-footbox arrangement. Pulling a draw cord across the quilt bottom edge gathers the bottom edge and forms a closed, expanded footbox of the sleeping bag.
