Gear Reviews: Sleeping Bag

Fillo

Manufacturer: Nemo

Reviewed by: djnawtso

I bought the Nemo Fillo because I was in the Navy and had to bring my own sleeping stuff to work when i had Duty. I decided on this because of its space saving ability. When i received it, i was concerned that the memory foam would be destroyed because of how small it was packed but every time i have used it since, it has been just as comfortable as the day i got it and always springs up to its full form every time. This pillow is so convenient and small i have taken it to concerts, camping, picnics, everywhere. I leave it in my vehicle for those spurious star gazing nights.
