Banish the Zombies: At Last, A Good Backcountry Sleep
Insulating camping and hiking sleeping mats and bags stop the cold and provide additional comfort when sleeping in the outdoors.
Blue foam and thin inflatable mats were OK when that’s all there was, but it’s the 21st century, and sleeping pads now are lighter, smaller, and thicker when inflated - meaning you’ll never have to feel the ground when lying on your side, or back, and you can wake up without sore spots. Insulated mats provide extra R value to stop the cold from seeping up from the ground, and can reduce the size and weight of sleeping bag you need to carry. All of our sleeping mats are expedition grade mats, and can be blown up by mouth, via built in hand pumps, or by using specially designed accessories to speed inflation.
