It was in mid 90’s that we started thinking about a logo for Wildcraft. And it was quite a task – how would we depict what we stood for in one image? The aim (then and now) was to be a trusted outdoor and adventure gear brand.

You should only wash a sleeping bag when absolutely necessary; just a couple of times
over the life of the bag. Bag insulations are fragile and their performance can be
adversely affected if not washed correctly.

Home Cleaning

- All bags should be washed and dried in an oversized, commercial washer and
dryer. Use a front load, tumble washer, NOT a top loading, agitator machine.
Agitator washers can eat your bag!
- Wash all insulations in cold or warm water.
Dishwashing liquid is good for washing bags with down or Polarguard insulation.

Just be careful not to use too much dish soap.

- Do not “Dry Clean” bags. Dry Cleaning solution is a petroleum-based solvent
that will “coat” the insulation and prevent it from re-lofting.

Down fill bags

- Down bags should be dried thoroughly at a MEDIUM heat setting.
- Pull the bag out during the drying process and “break up” the wet clumps of down
so that they can dry completely. Be careful when pulling the clumps apart so
you don’t damage the down.
- Make sure the bag is completely dry to avoid mildew. This could take 2-3 hours.
