all it's something that packs down to the size of like a tennis ball and it keeps me extremely warm I also really like taking it on flights actually because it's small and it's soft and it has a hood and I can like cover myself with it and go to sleep the first company to popularize these was a company called Senchi who make them in like wild colors And like for a while there, when they were the only ones making them, you would see people wearing a full sentry outfit and it would look like you'd encountered a Teletubby.
