Hi all, I figured I would share my sleepsack self-bondage technique. I've used this method on a darlex sleepsack (with internal sleeves) before and now recently got a canvas sleepsack (with internal sleeves).
Basically I just tie a rope to the zipper pull and to the bedpost. With my darlex sleepsack I had to put a ring around the zipper track to prevent the zipper from going too high and then getting stuck. With this canvas one that is not necessary because I can hold the rather large collar down with my head/neck.
I've tested this a few times with supervision from my girlfriend (who doesn't live with me) and it works super reliably. As for a safety backup or in the event of fire I have a roommate who stays in another bedroom in the apartment. I could always yell to him.
I have a Fets fash bag with internal sleeves that I can get in and out of easily on my own... great for relaxing...not so great for self bondage

So the collar is rigid and does not readily bend down?

What means - no gag! 😉
I never considered a canvas one simply due to breathability and lack of stretch/squeeze, but that's the only downside I can see to this rig. The extra straps for reinforcing the legs is quite a nice touch and would definitely add to the feeling of being secured. Tempted to find a way to add those to
the sleepsack I got from Etsy months ago..

It is actually quite comfortable. I enjoy it more than the darlex sack because it isn't always trying to pull me back into position, if that makes any sense.
Have you got a link to where you got the canvas bag from?
Here's a photo of me in it
I tried something similar to this and I got stuck!
Basically, I was on my bed, inside my sleepsack. My arms were a
eady trapped in the internal sleeves and the zip was just over my shoulders. All of a sudden I pulled too hard and the chord just snapped clean off leaving me trapped inside the sleepsack without an escape mechanism!
It was a terrifying, albeit thrilling experience.
After a blind panic and lots of cursing I eventually managed to find a corner on which to catch the zip and loosen it. I think I was trapped for a good 1h30mins.
My flatmate arrived back almost 15mins later 😕
Moral of the story: be very careful, or have backup

I have done some testing and because I don't use the straps around the upper part of my body, I am able to work my arms out of the sleeves. Though it does take a good half hour to do so.
