I'm just thinking out loud here really, and maybe this is an idea that doesn't warrant discussion, I don't really know. But sleeping on your side in a fetal position is a more thermally efficient manner of sleeping (correct?) And a great deal of us are side sleepers anyways, so why are all sleeping bags designed for people who sleep on their back.
A side sleepers bag could be custom designed as a shorter bag shaped for side sleeping. I always have to sleep on my left side, why not have a bag shaped for my sleeping pattern. I'm pretty sure the overall square footage of such a bag would be smaller (thus a reduction in weight), and since the fetal position is more thermally efficient this could be a reduction of insulation as well.
Could this also lead to the creation of sleeping pads designed for side sleepers with hip dips and neck bumps… Sounds like a good idea to me?
Am I crazy?
