Mummy sleeping bags are shaped to be narrower towards the feet, helping to reduce empty space and keep warm air close to your body. This design makes them more efficient at retaining heat, especially in cooler conditions.
At WM Camping, we stock mummy sleeping bags for a wide range of uses – from affordable options for occasional use or sleepovers, to more technical, insulated models built for colder weather and outdoor trips. Whether you're camping in the UK or heading off on a more demanding expedition, you'll find something to suit your needs here.
Mummy shaped sleeping bags are designed with warmth and efficiency in mind. Unlike rectangular sleeping bags, these bags taper towards the feet, reducing the amount of empty space inside. This helps your body retain heat more effectively by limiting air circulation, making them a popular choice for camping in cooler conditions.
Their snug fit also means they tend to be more compact and lightweight, making them easier to carry and pack. If you’re wild camping, hiking, or taking part in expeditions where space and warmth are both important, mummy shaped sleeping bags are a reliable option.
One of the main reasons people choose mummy shaped sleeping bags is for their improved insulation. The narrower foot area and shaped hood help trap body heat more efficiently than standard sleeping bags. Many models also include features like drawcord hoods, draft collars, and zip baffles, all designed to prevent heat loss while you sleep.
Because of the closer fit, it’s important to choose the right size. Most mummy sleeping bags come in standard adult sizes, but we also stock junior and extra-long versions for taller campers or growing teens.
At WM Camping, we offer a variety of mummy shaped sleeping bags to suit different seasons and uses. If you're camping in spring or summer, a lightweight mummy sleeping bag with a lower tog rating may be ideal. For autumn or colder weather, look for options with synthetic or down insulation, rated for lower temperatures.
Some of the bags in our range are ideal for Duke of Edinburgh (DofE) expeditions or Scouts, offering a balance between warmth and weight, while others are geared towards seasoned campers needing a high-performance bag for colder climates.
We stock mummy shaped sleeping bags from well-known camping brands such as Vango, Outwell, and Outdoor Revolution, known for their quality and reliability. Whether you’re shopping on a budget or looking for a technical sleeping bag for challenging conditions, our range has you covered.
All of our sleeping bags include detailed specifications and temperature ratings to help you choose the right one for your needs. If you’re not sure which model to go for, our in-store team is always happy to help with advice based on your plans and budget.
While mummy sleeping bags are especially useful for camping, they’re also a great choice for festivals, sleepovers, and even as spare bedding at home. Their compact pack size makes them easy to store or take on the go, and many come with their own stuff sacks or compression bags for easier transport.
