Bedroll / Campers Roll

Customer Reviews

The way everything in America used to be made.

Even though I measured my sleeping bag prior to ordering, it still sticks out of the short bedroll when unrolled. Next time around, I'd get the long size. The full length pad pocket is a smart idea, but with a pad in it, even the thin blue closed cell foam type, the tie straps will not reach all the way around and buckle. Nor would it roll and tie with a fiber fill sleeping bag in the bedroll. It will however buckle with one wool blanket and a rectangular poly bag liner zipped inside the bedroll. And I'm sure a down bag would roll up and tie. While neither of these points is a deal breaker, it does sort of defeat the purpose of having an all inclusive system if you have to put it together in the field. That being said, and I've been putting gear to the test in the field for over 30 years, I am looking forward to owning and using this obviously well made product. Just based on my inspecting this item, I will be ordering one of your packs. Well done.

Now a standard piece of equipment on my list.

The Duluth Bedroll appeared to be the best in my search for a suitable, all-round, cowboy bedroll. Turns out after five nights on the trail in the Big Horn Mountains of Wyoming that the product lives up to what I believed to be its merits. The bedroll was warm, kept me dry, and I appreciated the features. The bottom pocket kept the sleeping pad under me through the night; the dual, two-way zippers that allowed me easy access to the top compartment proved most convenient; the pillow compartment was a bonus that worked perfectly. I added a light weight fleece bag in the top compartment of the bedroll and stayed warm in temperatures down to 40 degrees F. I could not be more pleased.

I'll never go tent camping without taking this bedroll.

I have camped many years and would not tent camp again without taking this bedroll. It is well worth the money. The pillow feature is excellent and you don't roll off the mat. In my opinion, the weight is not a concern as long as I can sleep comfortably.

One of the best pieces of gear to have.

This is a wonderful piece of gear. It is a rock solid shelter system in and of itself. This is the only bedroll that I'm aware of that makes provision for using something as your pillow -- and keeps it in a zippered pocket so it doesn't squish out -- and keep your sleeping pad in with you so you don't wake up cold, laying next to your pad after rolling off of it.

In warmer months, you'd need to take nothing but this with you. In cooler months a woobie or wool blanket will work, and there's room for a sleeping bag in really cold temps. This is definitely on my "don't ever leave behind" gear list.

Only downside is that if you count ounces, this won't be for you.

Well made useful product!

I purchased this item for an extended tenting trip. I wanted to try something more versitile than a sleeping bag. I now use it in my VW camper van, and about any other time I am away from home. I roll up some sheets, and blankets appropriate for the weather and sleep in comfort!

This is an exceptionally crafted, heavy duty piece of equipment. In my opinion, it is worth every cent!
