COCOON TravelSheet Silk — checked silk, model ST50 is a lightweight silk sleeping bag liner designed for travellers who need a compact and breathable layer for sleep. Constructed from checked silk fabric, this liner can be used inside a sleeping bag to keep the interior clean and protect insulation, or used on its own as a minimal sheet in warm climates and shared accommodation. The TravelSheet Silk is tailored to fit most standard sleeping bags and provides a soft, smooth sleeping surface that reduces friction and improves hygiene during multi-day trips.
Advantages
The checked silk fabric offers a balance of low weight and natural breathability, helping to regulate microclimate around the sleeper without adding bulk. As a liner, it preserves the sleeping bag’s internal fill from sweat and dirt, extending the bag’s usable life while remaining compact when packed. The silk surface is gentle on skin and reduces snagging and abrasion compared with rougher materials. Its simple design makes it easy to insert and remove, and the fabric’s quick-drying properties make it suitable for repeated use on multi-night trips.
Suitable for
- Hostel and guesthouse stays where hygiene and a personal sleeping layer are preferred
- Travel and backpacking trips requiring a lightweight, packable sleep liner
- Warm-weather camping where a full sleeping bag is unnecessary
- Trekking and multi-day expeditions as an insulating barrier and comfort layer

How to use
Open the COCOON TravelSheet Silk and insert it into your sleeping bag with the head end aligned to the bag’s head area, or unfold and lay it directly on a mattress or bunk as a single bed sheet. Tuck the edges into the sleeping bag or under the sleeper to minimise movement during the night. After use, ventilate and allow the liner to dry fully before packing. For cleaning, follow care instructions for delicate silk fabrics and use mild detergent; avoid high-temperature drying to preserve fabric properties.
Usage recommendations
For hygiene and longevity of both liner and sleeping bag, use the TravelSheet Silk as a barrier in shared accommodation and wash it regularly. In humid environments, allow full drying between uses to prevent odors and maintain breathability. Store folded inside a dry bag or packing cube to protect the silk from snags and dirt while travelling.
