Coleman Kids Explorer Sleeping Bag

Coleman Kids Explorer Sleeping Bag Review

For the price and the brand (Coleman has been quite disappointing in the last 2 decades) I was not expecting much.
But this little bag turned out to be a great little bag. Don't get me wrong, it's not what you'd put your kid in if you are headed to Banff in September, but it does the trick for most 3-season outings.
Held it up to the sun, and the baffling is pretty even. not bad for a bag.
Zipper glide and pull are chunky and easy to work with small fingers - even glo-in-the-dark. And THANK YOU Coleman - for not forcing the usual super-Lame color schemes which stereotype our children into PINK and BLUE crapola.
The grey /green looks like an actual piece of gear instead of some sort of bad Disney marketing casualty.
Is Coleman finally making good stuff again? stay tuned. So far this one is a hit in my book.

Coleman Kids Explorer Sleeping Bag Specifications

Introduce your kids to the great outdoors and ensure their warmth and comfort with the Coleman Explorer mummy-style sleeping bag, which is rated to 25 degrees for three-season outdoor camping. Measuring 30 by 66 inches, this bag fits kids up to 5 feet, 2 inches tall. This gray bag also includes a unique bright yellow interior that glows in the dark with star constellations.

Coleman's ZipPlow feature prevents zipper snags by plowing fabric away from zipper.

Two layers of insulation with offset quilt lines eliminate potential cold spots. This bag is filled with 28 ounces of Coletherm insulation, exclusive to Coleman, which is a hollow-core fiber, allowing for greater loft (a measure of the amount of space the insulation occupies and the amount of air the insulation can trap). The hollow-core fibers create pockets of air that serve as an extra barrier between the sleeper and the environment, maximizing thermal efficiency.

The sculpted hood surrounds the head to retain warmth, and a 3-inch insulated draft tube runs the length of the zipper to keep out chilly drafts. A trapezoid-contoured foot box gives feet more wiggle room. Other features include a durable polyester cover and liner, included stuff sack, and a two-way ZipPlow zipper that plows fabric away from zipper to prevent snags (and glows in the dark). This sleeping bag is machine washable.

About Coleman
The Coleman Company has been creating and innovating products for recreational outdoor use since W.C. Coleman started selling gasoline-powered lanterns in 1900. Inventor of the hugely popular fold-up camp stove, Coleman developed a plastic liner for his galvanized steel coolers in 1957--the birth of the modern cooler--and the company has been improving their utility and design ever since. The array of products that bear the Coleman name now includes just about everything you might need to work or play outdoors, from tents and sleeping bags to boats, backpacks, and furniture.
