Winter time is upon us and today I’m going to be sharing with you all one of my favorite pieces of gear EVER!
This is the Xtherm Sleeping Pad/Mattress from Therm-a-Rest and this is the best sleeping pad mattress that I have ever tested. While there are some very high-end pads that get close to this, there is no pad out on the market today that has been able to overthrow it.
I’ve been testing this product out for get this, almost 10 years!
Literally, I purchased this pad in the fall of 2014 and it’s still going strong.
Year after year, trip after trip, this pad continues to be m first choice when it comes to cold weather pads.
It’s comfortable, it’s lightweight, it’s compact and it’s warm.
At the same time, it is EXPENSIVE!
As with all high-end gear, if you want to play you’ll have to pay.
It’s just how it is.

Therm-a-Rest Xtherm Sleeping Pad Stats :
Price : When I originally purchased the Xthrem 10 years ago, it cost me $150 for the regular size. Now, the Xtherm runs around $250 – give or take depending on where you order it from.
Colors : There are 2, both are shades of gray – one is bluish gray and the other is gray gray like you see here.
Versions : There are two versions, a mummy cut and a rectangle version. There is also a version that is even more lightweight – I prucahsed the heavier model as it is more durable and it is warmer.
Materials : 70D nylon on the bottom withstands the wear and tear of extended expedition use, while 30D ripstop nylon on top keeps it light and packable.
Weight : 15.5oz
Sizes : Regular, Regular Wide, and Large
Dimensions Stored : 9” x 4.5”
Dimensions Inflated : 20” Wide, 72” Long, 3” Thick
R-Value : An incredible 7.3 – that is very high for an air mattress.
How? : Therm-a-Rest was able to accomplish this high R-value due to two thermal technologies that they implement into this pad – one is called the Triangular core Matrix and the other is ThermaCapture – both of these you can look up on the Therm-a-rest web site.
Included : Pump Sack, Stuff Sack and Repair Kit
Made : One of the very few outdoor products that remains to be made in the USA.
