These sound like a great idea, but I am not sure I want people thinking I live in a fleece-bag motel :). Sorry, it's the relentless Arizona heat. Jerry

I've used these for several years of mild-weather camping in tents, the westy, and occasionally on the floor or porch of a cabin. Very convenient if the temperatures are going to be 55 or above—the wash easily and dry quickly. I have two sets of colder temperature bags that will take me down a lot colder, but these fleece bags get the most use. There are some very expensive alternatives on the market, but for general use they are no better than the fleece.
