The self-inflating compact mattress is often considered one of the most innovative camping gear inventions of all time. Originally designed for backpackers Thermarest has also designed super comfortable models for those who rarely carry their gear on their back such as the redesigned Thermarest LuxuryCamp Large sleeping pad. Immediately the tired camper will melt into the inflatable 2.5 inch thick bed of air and expandable open cell foam. The thickness is great for warmth but the inflatable design allows the user to adjust the pad to the firmness of choice. The Thermarest LuxuryCamp Large sleeping pad also features a contoured surface that minimizes pressure points. On top of this surface a low-slip stretch knit fabric offers a pleasing texture against the skin and just enough friction to reduce the chance of sliding off the pad when camped on a slope. The Thermarest LuxuryCamp Large sleeping pad will leave you wanting to sleep out under the stars or in the back of a van every night! (For active sleepers and / or those with a larger frame be sure to check-out the wider Thermarest LuxuryCamp XL sleeping pad.)
