The Kush Sleeping Bag

Knowing that versatility is essential for spontaneous road trips and van life adventures, the Kush Sleeping Bag may be used as a traditional sleeping bag, as a comforter or as a pillow. Two Kush Sleeping Bags may be zipped together to create a double-wide blanket or sleeping bag for two. The Cozy CloudLoft™️ Insulation and spacious foot box mean users have a greater degree of comfort. The unique pin-tuck design keeps beds looking like the comforts of home.

Tallboy Tent

Providing quick set up for outdoor enthusiasts and those new to camping, Kelty’s Tallboy Tent features: a dome ceiling for standup living space; fiberglass X- pole construction for quick assembly; and a shark mouth storage duffel for easy pack-up.
