What is the best way to store sleeping bags?

Proper storage of sleeping bags is just as important as cleaning them regularly. First, before you even think about storing your sleeping bag, make sure you dry it out completely. Let it air dry naturally. Do not put it under the sun or near a heat source for this can damage the material of the sleeping bag. Then once it is dry, you can put it loosely on a shelf, hang by the loops in a closet or stuff loosely in a storage bag. Make sure you store it in a cool dry place free from insects.
