A pure silk travel sheet from Cocoon, designed to be used alone in hot climates or teamed with a sleeping bag for added warmth (adds up to 5.3°C). The premium silk reduces the weight to just 160 grams and increases its thermal performance. The Insect Shield treatment offers protection from a range of insects including mosquites, ticks, ants, flies and midges, so you can get a more comfortable and peaceful night’s sleep. The liner comes with a pillow sleeve, so you can slot a pillow inside if you want to cover the pillows in hostels or on sleeper trains. Due to its 100% silk construction, the liner is incredibly soft and comfortable against your skin, as well as highly breathable. It’s also completely double stitched with reinforced gussets and features a side opening with a velcro closure. Supplied in a compact stuff sack and packs down to just 15 x 7cm. INSECT SHIELD TREATMENT Added Protection For Your Liner Insect Shield is a revolutionary new defense in the battle against bugs. It converts the liner into long-lasting, effective and convenient insect protection. Tightly bonded to the fabric of your liner, Insect Shield is near your skin but not on your skin. It is invisible, odourless and does not change the feel of the fabric. Insect Shield repels mosquitoes, ticks, ants, flies, fleas and midges, many of which can carry dangerous diseases such as malaria or Lyme disease. The active ingredient is a man-made version of a natural insect repellent found in certain types of chrysanthemum plants. Registered by the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency (EPA), it can be used by pregnant or nursing women and children of any age.
