Colorado Bedroll

$200.00

We have been making Colorado Bedrolls since our inception in 1890. While we have made some improvements over the years, the overall product is almost the same as it was 133 years ago! These bedrolls are heavy and made to keep you warm in even the coldest conditions and also come in a variety of canvas weights.

The bedroll is laid out flat, folded in half to make it 7’ and then folded over on each side to make it 3’6” with 3 full layers of canvas over top of you!

Assembly Instructions & Helpful Hints

Waterproofing:

We do not recommend that you waterproof your tent. Canvas allows our tents to “breathe”. If waterproofing products are applied, it will seal the tent up like paint. If your tent can no longer breathe, condensation will become a problem, especially if using a stove.

First time in rain/moisture:

The seams of a new tent often leak the first time they are subjected to moisture. It will take a few exposures/soakings to shrink the needle holes tightly against the thread. To minimize this possible leakage, we advise customers set up new tents and soak the seams with a hose several times, allowing the tent to dry thoroughly between soakings. If this procedure is not practical for your situation, we then suggest that you arrange your tent so nothing sits under the seam that may be a problem if it gets wet. If your tent leaks at a few spots along the seam, you may rub wax or a bar of Ivory soap to fill the stitch holes. If you apply waterproofing, do so only in the places where it leaks and do not cover the entire tent. When an old tent starts leaking in the middle of the fabric, far from the seams, it is time to buy a new tent.

Storing

Never store your tent when it is wet or damp. A tent that is stored when still damp will cause mildew.

Mold and mildew

Once mold and mildew appear they can be killed but the stain created is difficult to remove. We recommend using a mold and mildew cleaner once it appears If you have extensive damage please call us for additional options.
