The invention relates to a collapsible luggage bag that improves maneuverability of the bag when a user is towing the bag and collapses to a reduced size to improve portability. In particular, the invention relates to a handle that is slideably interconnected to one or more stays such that the upper ends of the stays change position along the length of the handle as the handle retracts into the luggage. Further, the handle disconnects from one or more of the stays such that the handle, stays, and other frame components collapse and lie in a common plane. This collapsibility improves the portability of the luggage bag when the internal volume of the luggage bag is not used to store items.

This disclosure relates to a novel system, device, and method for providing a sleeping bag with an integrated ground mat that provides thermal comfort by effectively retaining heat and is lightweight, compact, and easily packed for transport or storage. The sleeping bag with integrated air mattress allows the user to bring only one item that doubles as a sleeping bag and a ground mat. Additionally, the integrated ground mat remains positioned under the user while the user is sleeping. The sleeping bag may have an integrated ground mat, an inner shell, an outer shell, insulation between the inner and outer shells, an upper portion and a lower portion forming a sleeping cavity, an opening for access into the sleeping cavity, a draft tube, and a means for opening and closing the sleeping bag opening.
