The Original Matty
What is a cabin sleeping bag?
A sleeping bag made for indoor bunks, not tents. It feels like your sheets at home, with a foam pad and a pillow built in.
Does it count as my sheets, blanket and pillow?
For most cabin camps, yes. Every camp's list is a little different, so check yours, or email us the list and we'll help.
Do I still need a sleeping bag for overnight trips?
Yes. Matty is for the cabin. If your camp sleeps outside on a trip, pack a regular sleeping bag for that night.
My camp doesn't allow foam pads.
Unzip the pad and leave it at home. Matty still works as your sheets and pillow.
Will it be warm enough?
It's made for indoor cabins. For chilly cabins, add the blanket your camp recommends on top.
How do I wash it?
Unzip the foam pad and take it out, and unzip the pillow to wash separately. Turn it inside out so the straps don't tangle, and zip all the zippers closed. Machine wash cold on gentle with like colors, then hang or lay flat to air dry. Spot clean the foam pad with a damp cloth.
What colors does it come in?
We'll share our launch colors when preorders open. Get early access to see them first.
Is it just for camp?
Sleepovers, retreats, dorm move-in weekends, the grandparents' guest room. Anywhere with a bed that isn't yours.
Can I add patches?
Yes. Iron on patches to make it yours. See the patches.
Orders and shipping
When can I order?
Preorders are coming soon. Get early access and you'll be the first to know.
What if plans change?
You'll hear it from us first. We'll email you with what changed and why.
Do you ship outside the U.S.?
Not yet. We ship anywhere in the U.S., including Alaska, Hawaii and APO/FPO addresses. See shipping.
Can I return it?
Yes, within 30 days if it's unused. See returns.
For camps
Do you work with camps?
Yes. Camps can sell Matty in their camp store or partner with us in other ways. See Matty for camps.
