It packs into an 18” x 6” x 4.5” case and weighs a mere 2 lbs, 13 oz, yet can hold 320 lbs. Plus, it has an integrated side pocket.

Therm-a-Rest® NeoLoft™ Sleeping Pad

The new NeoLoft™ Sleeping Pad from Therm-a-Rest® takes the backpacking sleeping pad to a new level. Weighing 30 oz. and packing down to not much larger than a 1-liter water bottle, it offers 4.6 inches of comfort and an R-Value of 4.7. The TwinLock™ Valve system makes inflation and deflation quick and easy. It’s not the lightest sleeping pad out there, but if you value a good night’s sleep, it’s worth the extra ounces.
