How to Pick Your Sleeping Bad

If you’re in the market for a new sleeping pad to make your outdoor adventures that much more comfortable, this guide was made for you! Buying a sleeping pad can be tricky with the crazy amount of options out there: what's the difference between self-inflating and air pads? Do I need to bring a pump? Can I store eggs in my closed cell foam pad? You'll get (most of) the answers to these questions when you click that green button below!

The best deal of all: rent your camp gear instead!

Sports Basement rents just about everything you need for a camping trip, a picnic in the park, a mountain biking adventure, a trip to the beach... you get the point. We rent a lot of gear. If you're even slightly unsure about whether you want to buy that Patagonia duffel or that bouldering crash pad or that pickleball paddle, try renting it first!
