- Mat is 3 in. thick, providing ample comfort against rocky, rooty, uneven terrain
- 20-denier, 100% recycled polyester fabric is incredibly lightweight; nonslip finish helps keep you on the pad
- Interior hydrolysis-resistant laminate is impervious to bacteria and moisture, which can degrade typical polyurethane coatings, ensuring an airtight mat for many years
- Internal welded baffles separate air chambers, creating a fully cushioned and stable sleep surface and preventing cold spots without excessive weight and bulk
- Air chambers are oriented head-to-toe, so the pad becomes slightly wider when weighted
- Oversize outer chambers form the Exped Comfort Cradle, helping to keep you centered and secured on the pad
- Vertical baffle orientation also reduces end-of-baffle welds, increasing lifespan of the pad
- The higher the R-value, the more insulated the mat
- This mat has an R-value of 1.3, which makes it best suited for use during warm summer conditions or when temps are expected to be above 50°F
- This pad is also a great option for indoor use or in combination with a foam mat for added comfort
- Durable, easy-to-use, one-way Flat Valves provide a high volume of airflow so you can quickly inflate/deflate the pad
- Flat Valves also eliminate the hard-to-soft interface of standard pad valves, reducing wear points and prolonging pad life
- Includes Schnozzel pump bag for inflation (weight: 2.1 oz.), a stuff sack for protection during transportation, and a repair kit with adhesive and fabric patches
- The entire Exped sleeping mat line is certified carbon neutral; Exped measures, reduces and fully offsets CO2 from manufacturing and shipping this product

EXPEDite my return!
Sending my long/wide back before using it even though I caught it at a great price. I was planning on using this pad for Summer but as soon as I laid on it I knew it wasn’t for me. The vertical baffles feel too much like an old school beach float and I found it was barely able to support my hips and shoulders when on my side. When I sat up I was always on the ground. For comparison I pulled out my Tensor long wide and the difference was clear. There was more support , comfort, and when I sat up the pad did a decent job of not bottoming out….it wasn’t perfect but it tried. Looks like a non-insulated Tensor is in my future. I wasn’t thrilled with the feel of the materials by comparison either.

Initially my husband and I bought one each for our RTT. The pads in the Ikamper are horrible. As these exped pads weren’t 100% for us, (which in all reality what is perfect? Overall complaints being, noise, sitting position squishes bottom onto floor, and ability to adjust firmness) we started using them for our boys to sleep on on the floor in our room at family stays, airbnbs, trip to Hawaii, and numerous stays in Motel 6, as well as plenty of camping trips. Granted the boys are roughly 80 pounds each, BUT rambunctious little maniacs that throw the pads around the room and make forts with the them. These pads have impressed the heck out of me with well over 100 nights used, by our children and my husband and myself. Also an impressive point is they stay inflated during a many days use. They have outlasted all our options for anything “better” to sleep on in the RTT, that my husband and I adopted them back as our main sleeping pads in the tent. Owned them for over 2 years and hoping that next two I purchase are as great quality.
