U.S. Forestry Service Surplus — Cool Weather Sleeping Bag

Field-tested durability. Reliable three-season warmth.

This U.S. FSS Cool Weather Sleeping Bag is a value-packed option for campers, hunters, and anyone who wants government-issued durability without the price of new technical gear. Intermediate-rated for three-season use, these surplus bags are built to stand up to rough handling and repeated use in the field. Exact cut and details can vary by lot (surplus inventory changes), but you’ll typically find rugged outer shell materials, dependable synthetic insulation, and a compact footprint that makes the bag a practical choice for car camping, basecamp use, and emergency kits.

Key Features

• Type / Rating: Intermediate-rated — suitable for three-season camping and general outdoor use (exact temp rating varies by lot)

• Condition: U.S. Forestry Service surplus — government issued, inspected, and redistributed for civilian use

• Insulation: Generally synthetic fill for wet-weather resiliency and easy care (lot-dependent)

• Shell / Construction: Durable outer shell designed for tough field use; reinforced stitching and hardware common on issued gear

• Closure / Fit: Full-length zipper and standard issue cut for ease of entry/exit (features may vary by surplus lot)

• Packability: Compressible for transport and storage; often ships with a stuff sack or roll-style storage option

• Use: Ideal for car camping, basecamp/hunting camp, training, emergency preparedness, and budget-conscious outdoorists

Why It Stands Out

Surplus U.S. Forestry Service gear is built to perform under real working conditions — that means practical durability, simple functional design, and value. For buyers who want a rugged sleeping bag that won’t be treated delicately, these intermediate surplus bags deliver proven utility at a fraction of the cost of new technical bags.

Perfect For

• Campers and hunters who want a tough, affordable sleeping bag for basecamp or short trips

• Preppers and emergency kit builders stocking reliable, field-proven gear

• Clubs and instructors needing bulk, budget-friendly sleep systems for group outings or training

• Anyone who prefers durable, no-frills gear over ultra-lightweight, high-cost options
