stuff sack
Gear storage pouch
A stuff sack is a lightweight bag, typically made of nylon or similar fabric, used to compress and store soft gear like sleeping bags, down jackets, or clothing.
Unlike structured bags, stuff sacks have no rigid form—you simply stuff items in and cinch the drawstring closure.
They're essential gear for backpackers and campers who need to minimize pack volume.
I crammed my sleeping bag into its stuff sack.
