Cowboy Bedroll

From all of the pictures I sort of figured this bedroll would be of very high quality, but I was still over-impressed when I got it. So many little details that it’s hard to really put into words. Just for example one of the seams where the zipper turns is stitched in such a way that it can take a lot of wear and tear and likely will never come off - but it’s also stitched in a very nice pattern that looks great. Hard to explain - but I have no doubt this will last my lifetime.

The biggest thing for me that stood out was the feeling of openness inside with it zipped up. I was sort of afraid I would feel claustrophobic, but the mesh and dowels is really perfect and gives plenty of room to lift the bedroll off my face.

The second thing that really stood out, was how comfy the foam pad is. I weigh ~200lbs and I don’t come close to sinking to the bottom.

The last thing that I didn’t expect was the canvas itself is a very comfortable material on my body. It’s the perfect weight and flex. I was a little afraid it would be scratchy and stiff. It’s very comfy.

I toss and turn in my sleep and like to switch from stomach to side. I also will be camping near my car. So I opted for the wider model. I’ll probably just use regular wool blankets unless it gets pretty cold - then switch to a sleeping bag.. I think if you are smaller or are comfy just laying in one position, the normal size will be super comfy. I am very happy I got the wider one though.

I wrote this right after receiving the bedroll in the mail:

Hey I just wanted to send you a note - I am 6' 4" and I cannot believe how well I fit in this thing. Even fully zipped up, I had room to sleep in pretty much any position I wanted. I think back to the last 15 years of using a typical synthetic material sleeping bag/inflatable pad system to sleep outdoors and how uncomfortable I was all those nights-I wish I had known about this much sooner. I want to thank you for putting out a natural material, fully sized, all in one sleep system like this. I can't wait to use it out in the high desert here next week. I know customer support can be challenging at times with folks and you just hear complaints, so I just wanted to send you this note of appreciation.

Thanks again for putting out such great products!

And this is my review after sleeping in some adverse conditions in the high desert in February:

I took this out to the high desert in what was supposed to be perfect calm and sunny winter desert weather. Well, that was not the case. The temps dropped to the low 40's and we had constant 20-30mph winds with gusts up to 40mph. Everything had to be tied down and secured, it was like being in a sandblaster.

The first night, my buddy was in a regular tent - it completely failed, and was blowing completely flat onto him one second, then the wind would switch the other way, and the tent would go completely flat the other direction. Finally, around 3am, a pole snapped and he was sleeping in a completely flat tent, cold and uncomfortable. The wind also ripped out all the stakes, the only thing holding the tent down was his weight.

Meanwhile, I had thrown down the bedroll in a more exposed area, and it was so heavy and flat to the ground the wind didn't move things around at all. Also you know how tents make a lot of noise flapping in the wind? This bedroll doesn't-the fabric moves but doesn't make noise. The canvas blocked all wind too, nothing got through. I slept great. Also before sleeping, I had plenty of room to read with a red light.

We had two nights of this, my buddy gave up on the tent and slept in a cave bundled up as much as he could, and I was fine in the bedroll. Slept great with just the bedroll, he had to wake me up as he was up, shivering before dawn and I was snoozing away ha ha.

I can't wait to have this the back of the truck when I drive from the south west corner of the US to Montana - I can drive all day and throw this down in whatever random campsite I come across. I have done this with tents before, but setup and take down is a pain, especially if there's heavy dew and you need to get on the road ASAP. Plus it's great to crash at friends houses with this, you can just throw it down and there's your bed.

This review is for the largest model with the pad, etc. Also that pad is the best pad I have ever slept on outdoors. There's no comparison. I was on dirt, sand and rock and felt nothing.

Also - this was done with no sleeping bag, I had cotton sheets, and three blankets. Not sure what the windchill was, but it was COLD. I was fine.

Highly recommend the investment in this heritage piece. It will serve you well.

Very big,very comfortable,sleep should not be compromised with thin or small sleep system

Great quality Bedroll, fast shipping.
Customer Service is Top Notch, spoke with them twice.
Ordered with the foam pad which is also top quality.
Unfortunately the pad didn't work for me and this issue is not the fault of the company.
The reason is my age and several neck surgeries and severe Arthritis in my lower back.
But now I have a extra pad for my Grandson to use , and he finds it extra comfortable.
Been using a Thermarest for the Bedroll so it all worked out.
Would recommend this system 👌

Augezeichnete qualität. Ist wirklich jeden cent wert.
