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.

An outdoor item such as a sleeping bag, jacket, hat or blanket with one or more ventilation/temperature adjustment openings. Each ventilation/temperature adjustment opening includes, in one embodiment, a mechanism that serves to either form an opening in one or both of the outer layer, and the inner layer of the outdoor item. In another embodiment, the one or more ventilation/temperature adjustment mechanism includes an air bladder which, when inflated, serves to push aside any insulation adjacent the deflated air bladder while in both embodiments, allowing the outdoor item to vent better, thereby cooling an occupant using or wearing the outdoor item thereby offering temperature regulation.

The current invention is directed towards a rectangular portable tent providing the user easy, assisted and custom storage of gear and personal shelter from unwanted environmental elements. The rectangular portable tent is easily folded, packed or rolled for storage during transportation by the user. The rectangular portable tent may furthermore be adjoined to or a member of another piece of portable gear, such as a backpack. Additionally, the internal volume size of the rectangular portable tent is expandable or reducible by the connection of multiple rectangular portable tents to each other. Adjustment, removal or addition of multiple dividers, openings and accessory components give the user the most optimal tent they desire for specific needs and conditions.

A two-piece table includes a one-piece tabletop portion and a one piece table leg portion. The tabletop portion is made of four or more distinct independent, hinged segments which allow the tabletop fold, origami style, into a small package. The tabletop further includes four corners having various chamfered ends or corners which allows for the creation of a handle in the longer ends or corners of the tabletop. The table leg portion is a foldable, unitary structure including four legs and a top portion on which the table top rests without any attachment. The top portion of the table leg portion fits into a slot or groove on the underside of the tabletop. The table leg portion is hinged and folds into a square.

A portable, lightweight, insulated, and heated storage device is provided. The heated storage device is movable between a closed condition adapted to maintain stored items therein at a predetermined temperature and an open condition for externally radiating heat. In one embodiment, the heated storage device may be a heating sack adapted to unfurl from the closed condition storing a sleeping bag or the like to the open condition as a flat, heated blanket, externally radiating heat.

A method for manufacturing an air-filled structure allows for ease of manufacturing utilizing plastic/vinyl/TPU laminated/urethane coated type top and bottom exterior layers as well as an internal baffle, all of which can be heat or chemically bonded together. Most if not all of the bonds or welds required to be made can be created at the same time in a high volume manufacturing step by providing one or more internal layer(s) each with a plurality of openings or cutouts which provide an opening or window through which the internal structure/baffle can be attached directly to the top and bottom layers of the air-filled structure.

This invention relates to a multiple use convertible backpack, in particular the backpack has an outer shell which is integrated with a convertible dual-sided fabric liner which may be utilized as a sleeping bag, blanket, cushion, or pillow. The backpack may be used to store additional items when the convertible dual-sided fabric liner is stowed inside the backpack. With the backpack remaining attached to the convertible dual-sided fabric liner when removed from the backpack, the outer shell may be used as a hood, or as an extension of the sleeping bag, blanket, or cushion into which the user's feet may extend or be placed. Alternatively, the outer shell may serve as a bag, attached to the dual-sided fabric liner, into which additional materials, items, or personal belongings may be placed, while the convertible dual-sided fabric liner is removed from the backpack.

A warming bag and snow suit combination includes a warming bag having an interior space between the front side and the back side. A slit extends through the front side and extends from a hole in the front side wherein the slit is openable to provide access to the interior space. A slit closure closes the slit. A perimeter closure coupled to the warming bag extends along an edge of the warming bag. The perimeter closure secures the warming bag in a folded position. Each of a pair of straps is coupled to the back side spaced apart for carrying the warming bag in the folded position. A snow suit is provided having a pair of arms, a pair of legs, and a torso section. Each of the arms and the legs is coupled to and extends from the torso section.

Provided is a sleeping bag including a warmth-improving portion. The warmth-improving portion includes a first insulation layer located on one surface in an inward direction of a sleeping bag outer covering and configured to block an inflow of the cold from the outside, a first compressed fiber layer located on one surface of the first insulation layer, and a heat-retention layer located on one surface of the first compressed fiber layer. According to the present invention, since it is possible to block the cold from the outside and to prevent warmth inside from being released using a first insulation layer, heat-retaining performance may be maximized. Since heat is generated on the basis of steam outside and inside a sleeping bag using a heat-retention layer, it is possible to easily increase and maintain a temperature inside the sleeping bag without a separate heat source.

A sleeping bag includes a top portion; and a bottom portion, with the bottom portion including a back-folded foot canopy therein configured to allow expansion when feet of a user are extended in an upward direction therewithin and providing room and maneuverability for the feet of the user. The sides of the foot canopy comprise walls formed by back folds each extending substantially across a width of the bottom portion and said walls and back folds are opposite and spaced apart from each other.
