Quilt vs. Sleeping Bag – The Kammok Firebelly and Bobcat

There's a piece of outdoor gear that you need to have if you don't already have it. It's called a trail quilt.

A trail quilt is an insulated down blanket engineered to regulate temperature while offering freedom of movement while staying incredibly light.

SO, WHAT IS A TRAIL QUILT?

HOW TO USE A QUILT?

Versatility is why the quilt wins in my books. There are so many uses for a quilt that goes beyond using it as a sleeping bag.

First, you need to realize that trail quilts aren't just a basic blanket. Quilts like the Kammok Firebelly and Kammok Bobcat are built with specific button snaps and cinching shock cords, and elastic straps that allow them to work as a sleeping bag.

WHY A QUILT VS. SLEEPING BAG?

REVIEW OF KAMMOK QUILTS

Two of the top trail quilts on the market are by Kammok. One is the designed for colder temperatures and the other is for more moderate temperatures as an all-purpose quilt.

The Bobcat 45ºF is the perfect go-to quilt in almost all scenarios. Rated for 45ºF or 7ºC, it can adapt to anything you need it to do whether as a sleeping bag, hammock underquilt, overquilt, or camping blanket.
