Inside pocket.

Features

Dress lightly (1 layer of clothing, ideally made from merino wool).
If needed, wear a hat, gloves, and socks, and use hand warmers. 
Use a sleeping bag liner to keep heat in. Avoid over-washing. Choose a mattress with good insulation (R-value >3).
Tip: contract your muscles (70% of the energy consumed is converted into heat), but avoid moving as this can create a draft.

How can I keep warm in the MT 500 Sleeping Bag?

Your sleeping bag may tear on a hike. It happens! The good news is that it can be repaired.
To do this, we recommend that you use self-adhesive repair patches (ref: 8584596).

If you don’t feel comfortable doing this yourself, a heat-bonded patching service is available at the workshop of your Decathlon store.

How to repair your sleeping bag

We use 3 layers of overlapping fill:
- two layers of 115 g/m2, 100% polyester
- one layer of 100 g/m2, 100% polyester

The wadding is made from silicone-coated spiral fibres that are highly compressible and durable.
The trapped air makes the filling highly insulating and lightweight.

It stays warm even when wet.

Do you want to know more about the wadding?

On the outside, the fabric is 100% polyamide, 38 g/m² fabric weight, 20 denier. This fabric can withstand up to 20,000 abrasion cycles.

Durability is calculated using the Martindale test according to ISO standard 12947-2. This test involves rubbing the bag material against another material to assess its abrasion resistance.

The inner lining is made from a 100% polyamide, 20-denier fabric weighing 35 g/m2.

How durable is fabric of the MT 500 Sleeping Bag?

All our sleeping bags display the temperature ratings tested by an independent lab (AITEX), in accordance with ISO 23537-1 standard. 
The comfort temperature is the lower limit at which the user is in general thermal equilibrium, feeling neither too cold nor too hot (for an average person in normal conditions).

Use this rating to choose the right sleeping bag for you.

What is the comfort rating?

The comfort temperature is the lower limit at which the user is in general thermal equilibrium, neither too cold nor too hot (for an average person in normal conditions of use).

What is the lower temperature limit?

In the context of this standard, the measurement protocol of a sleeping bag’s thermal protection uses a mattress with thermal resistance equal to an R-value of 4.8.

This means that when using a less insulating mattress, the thermal performance of your sleeping bag will be lower.

Use an insulating mattress to optimize your thermal comfort.

An important clarification concerning the ISO 23537-1 standard

Camping Sleeping Bags

Merino wool reduces body odour. Laboratory test ISO 17299-3.

Odour control

Style

Merino wool reduces body odour. 
Pack light! You can hike in this long-sleeved shirt for several days in a row.

After you sweat, merino wool easily traps insulating warm air and can absorb up to 35% of its weight in moisture without making you feel damp, which is great in cool weather. 
In hot, dry weather, water evaporating in the wool absorbs energy, which simultaneously cools the body slightly.
Conversely, synthetic materials allow your body temperature to drop faster.

Reducing the freezing effect 

For a softer feel, wash your shirt before first use.

Tip before use

Machine washing your merino wool shirt at 30°C on a normal cycle, preferably with liquid detergent.
Dry flat and avoid tumble drying to avoid shrinkage.

A self-inflating mattress is made of an airtight envelope glued to an open-cell foam in which the air circulates. When you unroll the mattress, it will return to its original shape and thickness (3 cm/1” for the Basic mattress) and fill with air. You will have to blow it up the rest of the way to your preferred pressure level. Self-inflation may be more or less noticeable depending on the thickness of the mattress.

About self-inflating mattresses

Unroll your mattress as soon as you set up camp. Leave the valve open to let the mattress pre-inflate. A self-inflating mattress will inflate to about 80%. You will need to blow up the rest yourself so you can adjust the pressure to your desired level of comfort.
Note: choose your mattress width according to your tent’s interior measurements.

Cover weight and dimensions

A new standard has been used since early 2020 to assess your mattress’s level of insulation: standard ASTM F3340-18. 
It measures the mattress’s capacity to retain or return body heat in order to avoid heat loss and provide you with thermal comfort.
The foam provides thermal insulation.

R-value standard ASTM F3340-18 for the self-inflating Basic Camping Mattress: 3.5 (measured by an independent laboratory)

Thermal properties and warmth: winter use may be possible, depending on the temperature.

The R-value expresses the mattress’s thermal performance and resistance. The higher the R-value, the better the mattress insulates you from cold ground.
- R-value from 0 to 1.9: designed for use in the warm season (summer) only
- from 2 to 3: designed for use in 2 to 3 seasons (spring/summer/fall)
- from 3 to 4: all-season mattress, can be used in winter
- higher than 4.5: suitable for winter and extreme conditions

R-value is a measure of thermal insulation. It indicates how much heat a material retains or allows to escape.
The higher the R-value, the better the mattress’s insulation.
R-value can be increased: stack two mats to combine their R-values.

All our mats are tested to standard ASTM F3340-18.

What is R-value? 

R-value from 0 to 1.9: Hot season (summer) 
R-value from 2 to 3: 2 or 3 seasons (spring-summer-fall)
R-value from 3 to 4: 4-season
R-value of 4.5 and higher: suitable for use all year round, including freezing conditions.

What R-value do you need?

This lightweight mat is unusually comfortable because the foam is moulded to provide depth and support. Though only 2 cm (0.8”) thick, the mat is supportive and comfortable.

Air Temperature

All our sleeping bags display the comfort temperatures tested by an independent laboratory, according to European standard ISO 23537-1. The comfort temperature is the lower limit at which the user is in general thermal equilibrium, feeling neither too cold nor too hot (for an average person in normal conditions of use). 
Use this rating to choose the sleeping bag that’s right for you.

Use temperature

What is the comfort limit temperature?

A sleeping bag does not produce heat but retains the heat produced by the body. If you’re cold when you slip into a cold, damp sleeping bag, it’s very likely that you’ll feel cold no matter how good your sleeping bag is! These temperature ratings therefore depend on the user’s resistance to cold, equipment, clothing, and weather conditions.

What you need to know about temperature

Dress lightly (just one layer of clothing is enough). Warm up your extremities: hats, gloves, socks, hand warmers, etc. A hot water bottle can be used as a heater (as long as there’s no risk of it opening by accident!). Contract your muscles (70% of the energy consumed is converted into heat), but without making any movements that would create a draft.
You can use a sleeping bag liner so you won’t have to wash your sleeping bag as often.

Tips before getting into your bag

Outer fabric and lining: 100% polyester | Wadding: 100% polyester 100 g/m² wadding.

Composition

We recommend you use a washing machine with a minimum 7 kg (15 lb.) capacity and close the zippers on your sleeping bag.

This thick, self-inflating Comfort mattress was designed for campers looking for comfort and an easy set-up.

A self-inflating mattress is made of an airtight envelope glued to an open cell foam in which the air circulates. When unfolded, the mattress fills with air, returning to its original shape and thickness (4.5 cm/1.75” for the Comfort mattress). However, you will need to inflate it partially by mouth to adjust the pressure to your liking. 
Self-inflation is more effective on some mattresses depending on the thickness.

The principle of a self-inflating mattress

Unroll your mattress as soon as you set up camp. Leave the valve open to make pre-inflation easier. A self-inflating mattress inflates itself to about 80%. You will need to blow up the rest yourself so you can adjust the pressure to your desired level of comfort.
Note: choose your mattress width according to your tent’s interior measurements.
