Review: This is a really nice canvas bag. There's a zipper on both sides so you can blow it wide open if you want or if you prefer getting in from one side or the other. It seams to have some waterproofing going on, but only enough to keep mist from soaking through. Any real rain would still be terrible. I'm 6ft 6in and 365lbs and still have room to toss in with blankets. It'll be colder than most sleeping beds and It'll be heavier than many of them. But I find a canvas bag more comfortable to sleep in as it doesn't clump up or restrict movement the way a nylon or nylon based material bag will. And it's big enough that if you really want to go out when it's really cold, you can always sleep in layers or with more blankets. Making these canvas bags a better fit for your sleep temperature. I personally like being a bit cool when I sleep and don't have the versatility in weather in a nylon bag as I do in canvas as the bulk of them are "rated for 30°-40°F" or colder as there's a lot of bulk in built-in insulation part of a nylon bag. This really is a better alternative.
Review: I see a few reviews complaining that this is old tech... Don't buy something and then complain that it's exactly what it claims to be. For what it is, this is good kit. Not cheap, not technologically advanced, definitely not light, and very stiff due to the wax treatment, but good, durable kit. Just be aware that the bedroll in and of itself will not replace your entire tent, sleeping bag, groundcloth, and sleeping pad - you'll need a few wool blankets for that. If you buy the blanket AND bedroll, it'll work well enough for summer camping. I'd still throw a more modern sleeping pad in there for comfort, and a tarp to use as a rain fly. The bedroll straps have a lot of extra length in them, specifically so you can roll a blanket or two in the bedroll. If you're going to be going old school in fall or winter, there is no such thing as too many wool blankets.

## Features

- Made in USA, Heavy Duty 16 Oz. Waxed Cotton Canvas: The Helko cowboy bedroll allows you to easily travel and set up camp without the need for sleeping bags, tarps, or tents. Just unroll where you plan to sleep, and crawl inside with a warm wool blanket.
- Swiss Army Blanket - 100% Fine Australian Wool - The Swiss Army Mountaineer Blanket represents the pinnacle of wool camp blankets. Blankets like these were originally produced for the Swiss Army from the late nineteenth century through the 1960s.
- Heavy Duty 16 Oz. Waxed Cotton Canvas: This bedroll is built from 16 oz. heavy duty, 100% waxed cotton canvas and is proudly made in the USA. A heavy beeswax finish has been applied and allowed time to soak through the canvas, making the bag highly durable and water repellent.
- Waterproofing Canvas Beeswax Finish: The built-in leather bedroll straps are removable, and long enough to accommodate storing a heavy blanket inside. These bags can be quickly cleaned with a damp rag, or a brush with soapy water if a deeper cleaning is needed. Canvas wax or beeswax can eventually be used to re-coat the canvas if desired.
- Bag Dimensions: L: 80” x W: 40”, Interior Pillow Pocket with Zipper: 24” x 9.5”, Swiss Army Blanket Dimensions: 60" x 80", FITS A PERSON UP TO 6'2''

## Questions & Answers

**Q: What makes a $20 wool blanket and a $20 oil canvas tarp sell for $600? Is that some kind of nouveau “hipster dollars?”**
A: Not sure about the blanket, but you're welcome to make a bedroll with 2 each 6' zippers, saddle leather straps and buckles, pillow pocket and very heavy waterproof canvas for $20. Good luck finding the raw materials for that price, much less a sewing machine capable of doing the stitching.  I've already slept in it on the ground in the woods 20+ times. Takes maybe a minute to roll up and strap to the pack.  Still looks like new.

**Q: Why isnt the price 80$**
A: You will understand the price once you see the item. Pictures online or worse yet on your phone just do not let you see in detail. The quality is top notch. Unless you do something stupid this bed roll will last for years. The first time you open it up and put in a wool blanket or whatever you choose to sleep with you will see first hand how tough the product is as you work to roll it back up. Order it and see for yourself. If you think it is poor quality send it back. You won’t send it back and if you like to be outside under the stars you will be glad you bought it. It is not junk from China.

**Q: Why so expensive?**
A: Very tough and high quality. You will never need to replace it. No need for a ground cloth or tent. Bugs and even small animals can walk over it and you won’t even notice it when you are sleeping. Just cover your head. A true survival bag to sleep in on the run.

**Q: Does it come with the canvas bag and the wool blanket?**
A: It is a canvas bag only. You can easily ad a wool blanket depending on the weather. You can sleep in it with your clothes on and quickly get out if necessary.
