Meet the new Odyssey and Vulcan Sleeping Bags, the latest launch from Spartan Sleep Systems.
Purpose-built for military personnel and outdoor adventurers, Spartan Sleep Systems bridges the gap between durable, rugged ‘military grade’ gear and lightweight, recreational outdoor gear.
While outdoor hiking gear continues to rapidly evolve—embracing lighter materials and versatile designs—Defence and military-grade sleep systems have remained largely stagnant. Many of the sleep systems issued by defence are bulky with outdated designs that solely focus on extreme durability; at the cost of comfort, functionality, warmth and weight.
This gap between the innovation of civilian hiking gear and military-grade sleep systems highlights a growing need for tactical gear that meets modern performance without compromising on functionality. Spartan Sleep Systems recognise this need and have endeavoured to bridge this gap. They believe every soldier deserves sleeping gear they can rely on, and they take the quality of their products seriously.
Many military-grade sleep systems are marketed as a ‘premium’ product, but lack standardised ISO ratings (warmth test) and quality assurance. Spartan Sleep Systems has ensured each of their sleeping bags are Certified ISO 23537-1:2022 rated, ensuring a good nights sleep. |

Spartan Odyssey Sleeping Bag
|
|
Engineered for the Mission. Designed for the Wild.
The Spartan Odyssey is a tactical, performance-oriented synthetic sleeping bag designed for endurance and comfort. Whether you’re deployed in the field, trekking through the bush, or chasing game through the high country, the Spartan Odyssey delivers uncompromising performance in harsh Australian conditions. This sleeping bag is purpose-built for military personnel, hunters, and serious outdoor adventurers, striking the balance between the rugged functionality required for tactical missions, thermal efficiency and comfort.
The design team combined their experience designing military-grade equipment and their love for outdoor gear and applied that expertise to reinvent the ‘military-grade’ sleeping bag—transforming it from a simple sleep system into a versatile, functional tool for both tactical field and recreational outdoor use. |

Key Features:
- Integrated armholes are strategically positioned for functional mobility— allowing easy access to operate equipment, take orders, brew a coffee or move to picket, all without reducing your core temperature. A hook at the foot of the bag connects to an internal mid-length loop, allowing you to shorten the bag and walk when movement is required, stay prepared and stay alert for the enemy without leaving your sleeping bag.Crafted with a durable 20D Nylon shell and the lining treated with a DWR finish, the Spartan Odyssey is built to endure. The internal 70D Nylon footbox lining allows combat boots to be worn inside, essential for rapid response.
- Certified ISO 23537-1:2022 rated.
- Thermolite insulated filling and Thermolite T-Down baffles - the bag will keep you toasty at night without weighing down your pack during the day. It features horizontal baffles to stabilise the distribution of the insulation and reduce cold spots, and baffled draft tubes covering the zip sliders to seal in body heat, preventing warmth from escaping. The Spartan Odysseys’ hood is equipped with a draught collar and draught tubes around the neck and face to reduce open space between the sleeping bag and neck, minimising the cold getting in, and any warm air escaping, a crucial feature for chilly nights.
- Quick deploy and walk mode
- A two-way YKK #5 centre zip with an anti-snag zipper offers reliable performance and fast access. The anti-snag zippers with silent, double-sided pull tabs make getting in and out a breeze, even with gloves.
- Stowaway pocket to easily stow your phone, batteries, head torches or power banks in the internal pocket to keep them warm and reduce battery discharge from the cold.
- Mission-ready construction

Spartan Vulcan Sleeping Bag

The Spartan Vulcan is a mission-ready, summer-weight synthetic sleeping bag. Our design team, drawing from years of experience in military-grade and outdoor gear, reimagined a summer sleeping bag to meet operational needs.
Designed for harsh warmer climates and unforgiving tropical terrain, this sleeping bag is built to perform—whether you're conducting reconnaissance in tropical environments, patrolling remote bushland, or pushing deep into rugged jungle.
The bag is designed with an integrated mosquito face net and a stow-away pocket and is ready to deploy straight out of the pack, offering instant protection from biting insects and wet ground. Its light-weight yet durable fabric ensures comfort in hot, humid conditions, and the design is effective for concealment in tactical scenarios. |
