Sleeping Bags

At Boxes4Soldiers, our Sleeping Bags category offers an essential collection of high-quality, rugged sleeping systems designed to meet the demands of British Armed Forces personnel. From freezing alpine environments to damp woodland encampments, our range of temperature-rated sleeping bags, bivvy bags, liners, and compression sacks equips soldiers to rest comfortably, safely, and effectively—helping maintain morale and mission readiness.

❄️ Temperature-Rated Thermal Bags

We stock 4-season cold-weather bags rated for up to −15 °C, ideal for northern European winters or night shifts in the field. Our 3-season lightweight mummy bags, with thermal ratings down to 0 °C, balance warmth and portability for spring and autumn operations. Filled with durable synthetic insulation (high-loft hollow fibre), these bags retain heat even when wet, compressing down small for easy transport.

🪶 Ultralight & Compressible Designs

Ideal for dismounted patrols and rapid deployment, our sleeping systems focus on weight and pack size minimization. Using draft collars, dual zips for bivvy compatibility, and high-efficiency insulation, these compact bags weigh from 900 g to 1.3 kg and compress into grab‑and‑go sacks, perfect for bergen carriage while keeping usable sleep performance.

🌧️ Bivvy Bags & Waterproof Overlays

For extra protection in wet climates, our bivvy bags and waterproof overlays provide an outer barrier to moisture, wind, and condensation. Lightweight and rugged, they can envelop a sleeping bag to form a minimalist shelter, fast to set up, low-signature, and highly water-resistant. Many are sized to fit standard mummy bags, ensuring compatibility and versatility.

🧵 Liners & Add‑Ons

We offer silk/poplin liners and cotton flannel liners that boost hygiene, comfort, and warmth by up to 5 °C, perfect for rotating between wash cycles or pairing with cheap summer bags. Thermal liners are easy to roll up and launder, extending the lifespan and cleanliness of main sleeping bags during long deployments.

⚙️ Compression & Storage Sacks

Store your bag dry and compact with compression sacks featuring straps and buckles that reduce volume, as well as storage sacks that maintain internal loft when not in use. Keeping insulation lofty ensures consistent warmth and extends product life, especially crucial in field conditions.

🛡 Rugged Construction

• Robust fabrics: 210–300 T nylon with DWR (durable water‑repellent) coating

• Bar‑tacked stress points: Reinforced seams withstand repeated use

• Draft tubes & insulated hoods: Minimise heat loss at openings and head
