The Badger Bed 30 is the foundational piece of the complete sleep system from Born Outdoor, where the mattress, sheets, and quilts are all combined in a modular one-of-a-kind bedroll. The Badger Bed 30 is an outer shell made from post-consumer recycled ripstop fabric with a DWR TPU-coating for exceptional durability, water repellency, and abrasion resistance.
“As outdoor enthusiasts ourselves, we spent years researching convenient ways to sleep more comfortably outdoors,” Stuart Born, founder of Born Outdoor, said. “Our fully integrated bedroll stands apart from traditional sleeping bags and pads. Whether you are at an elk camp in Colorado or hunting hogs in Texas, you can customize the Badger Bed for your hunt. We’re very happy that Gray’s agrees that the Badger Bed is the perfect solution for anyone wanting to sleep well and wake up ready for their next day’s adventure.”
Born Outdoors makes the user experience easier by creating sleep bundles that contain the entire system, including mattress, sheets, and quilt, taking any guesswork out of the online buying experience.
“Gray’s Best awards are anticipated by long-time readers of Gray’s Sporting Journal and coveted by hunting and angling manufacturers,” Mike Floyd, Editor in Chief of Gray’s Sporting Journal, said. “Gray’s editors cover areas of expertise and experience—Angling, Shooting, Apparel and Accessories—and select gear that not only makes good first impressions, but also satisfies during repeated use. Winners are selected absent encouragement and incentive from manufacturers. Further, Gray’s Best winners deliver on the claims of their makers but also have an extra attribute, an extra something that triggers a tenor of feel, remembrance or aesthetic and can be defined only as…satisfying. Much like Gray’s itself.”
