Klymit Insulated Static V Sleeping Pad

Product Information

The design of the mat has not been changed very much so you still get a very comfortable sleep with this.

The Klymit's dynamic side rails and v-chamber design did a pretty good job of solving these two issues. Twist-Pull Valve: Secure and simple, it allows inflation in as few as 10 breaths and opens wide for rapid, complete deflation.

Loved this pad for its weight (25 oz), packability (about the size of a Nalgene bottle when packed properly), and the fact that I could roll on my side and not grind my bony hips into the ground. Klymit makes a number of different versions of this sleeping pad — all them have the V-shaped baffles, a twist and pull valve, and are wider than normal pads. The Static V had so much luxury in that department that I was disappointed to find this "regular" length almost too short for my 5 foot 9 inch frame.

The only potential drawback is the two ports that you can use to inflate or deflate the sleeping pad. I never had any issues with falling off the pad and I had a lot of extra room, which equates to a better night’s sleep. You can now directly compare the R-value of mats rated using the ASTM F3340-18 with confidence that is a fair and accurate comparison between mats. The bag that it comes with is slightly oversized, which means that you can actually get it back in the bag with little issues every time even if your roll is slightly sloppy.The Static V packs down to about the size of a cabbage (5x8 cylinder) and doesn't seem too heavy (25 oz. The top material is soft on the skin, and it's a comfortable shape (though I also underinflate for maximum squish). Temperatures were in the 50’s, and I wasn’t ever cold, which I have been with other pads in similar conditions.

My plan was to use my already tested and loved Cumulus Lite Line 400 sleeping bag, pair it with a Sea to Summit Reactor Extreme liner and have a decent winter sleeping pad to make for a great insulation combo. Klymit's Static V Insulated sleeping mat uses synthetic insulation to deliver a warm sleeping mat with optimised baffle pattern for comfort. You will be prepared with the Klymit Insulated Static V Sleeping Mat as it is ultimate for any season, so you don't need to let the cold temperatures keep you from adventuring. The dry air is a better insulator than the moist air from your lungs and it reduces the chance of mildew and other bio corrosives building up on the interior of the pad.The valves didn't crack but this might be because I use dry air in the pad so they don't freeze shut.
