    Inflatable Sleeping Coat?

    This is an interesting concept. It reminds me of Back To The Future II when Marty goes into the future and has a coat with a built-in blow dryer.

    Check out this inflatable sleeping coat.

    Do you think it could work in a hammock? If the insulation wraps completely around you, I think it might actually be viable.

    Did you see the tree-hanging tent on the same website? Can you imagine 12 people hanging together?

    Being that the fabric isnt breathable, it'd be sweaty mess.

    The cot seems really neat, but I agree that it could be a really sweaty mess

    It is a smart idea. I have a Klymit, which is a vase, I find my back is pretty warm at night. But then, the Klymit is not long enough to cover my bottom.

    How warm can air be? Maybe if it DID have a blow dryer like Marty's coat!...
