Exped Versa 5R Sleeping Mats
On the face of it these jiggers might look expensive - compare it to a couple of nights in a motel and it has a 5 year warranty
Here's the EXPED Blurb
The EXPED Versa 5R backpacking mat is a versatile, multi-use 4-season mat fit for a variety of adventures, including camping, backpacking and adventure travel.
EXPED's SYNMAT TECHNOLOGY™, with our proprietary Texpedloft insulation, ensures maximum warmth over the lifetime of the mat, while a 9 cm thick air cushion cradles the body. These air chambers run head to toe, fully supporting the body for an unrivaled night's sleep and giving maximum durability.
The durable and compact Versa sleeping mat features recycled 75 D ripstop face fabric; all EXPED mats are certified carbon neutral by myclimate.
An integrated pump makes mat inflation swift and simple – lung power not required!

R-VALUE
We think the most important factor in a comfortable and warm night’s sleep for backpacking mats is R-value: the amount of insulation a mat provides from the ground. So much so that we put it in the name!
Within each family, our new backpacking mats are distinguished by their R-value. The Ultra family is available in 1R, 3R, 5R and 7R variants for use from summer to extreme cold. Dura is aimed more squarely at colder environments, available in 3R, 5R and 8R variants for use from 3-season use to the most extreme and challenging cold environments on the planet. The Versa family comes in 1R, 2R, 4R and 5R variants, for summer through to to all-season use.
Just as our sleeping bags are differentiated by their temperature rating according to the ISO 23537 standard, our sleeping mats are now differentiated by their own standard, ASTM F3340, which was launched in 2020
