What is the NeoAir® XTherm™ NXT?
It's a super lightweight sleeping mat designed for colder conditions. Thanks to its excellent warmth-to-weight ratio and high-performance construction, this mat is perfect for alpinists, backpackers and adventurers counting every gram of kit.
And yes, if you were wondering, this mat is technically insulated, but not in the traditional way using down or synthetic insulation. We'll touch more on that later.
What is it made of?
The main fabric is 70D ripstop nylon which is lightweight yet highly durable to protect against punctures and tears on the bottom, making it suitable for rugged backcountry and mountain environments.
What keeps you warm is the Thermacapture™ technology inside. Thermacapture™ is an innovative material that reflects heat and maximises heat retention to keep you warm all night long. It adds no extra weight or bulk to the design to boost packability and versatility for various adventures.
What are its features?
The Triangular Core Matrix™ is a patented technology that uses triangular baffles stacked in two layers, creating a stable surface and minimising heat loss. This technology offers a 7.3 R-value, making it suitable for colder adventures and winter pursuits.
Weighing just 439g, this sleeping mat has a fantastic warmth-to-weight ratio, and at three inches thick, it offers a high level of comfort and support to get a good night's kip. Impressively, it packs down to the size of a standard one-litre bottle, making it easy to stuff into a kit bag or backpack without taking up excessive space.
What's more, this mat is really easy to inflate and deflate, thanks to the WingLock™ valve. The WingLock™ valve feature one-way inflation, meaning it won't hiss back at you as soon as you pause for breath while still maximising airflow.
Finally, you get a pump sack, stuffsack and repair kit included in case of emergencies when resources may be limited.
