Question from mindy goldis

I wanted to know if any companies sell a sleeping bag that is made of natural fibers (on the inside), as the one I have is falling apart and if i purchase a new one, I want it to be non-toxic and natural.

Thank You!

Allergy Buyers Club sells a Cotton Sleepsack that is basically a cotton liner that could be placed in a bed or sleeping bag, so as to have untreated natural fiber next to your skin while you are sleeping.

REI also sells such liners made from cotton or a cotton/silk blend, so I imagine you could get them at most stores which sell sleeping bags.

Back before the days of these lightweight, synthetic, mummy-style bags, I remember we used to have heavy rectangular cotton sleeping bags with flannel linings, and they still exist. Read descriptions carefully, as some flannel linings contain polyester. They are still filled with synethetic materials.

Here are some links for rectangular cotton sleeping bags:
