The 2 5 inch thick trekker delivers the same plush comfort in a light and compressible package but costs 50 less. Therm a rest discontinued the neoair all season sv pad as of march 2020.

Therm a rest neoair trekker sleeping pad review. Therm a rest combines advanced patent pending technology and material with decades of experience to offer a lightweight warm and incredibly compactible sleeping pad offering twice the warmth of other uninsulated sleeping pads internal baffling reduces convection heat loss between a warm body and cold ground much like a dual pane window. The trekker weighs 17 oz. So i sucked it up and put 5 ounces more into my base weight and have never regretted it.

I tried the therm a rest xlite pad before settling on this one. Its rectangular shape combined with three inches of cushion make it a fantastic choice for those that value comfort over weight savings.

Its rectangular shape gave our side sleeping testers more room to roll around than the mummy shaped neoair xtherm. The trekker has an r value of 3 and costs 129 95. 481 g and has the dimensions 72 x 20 x 2 5 in. The therm a rest neoair trekker is a rugged three season sleeping pad that i ve tested on nights ranging from an island beach to a sub freezing mountain top.
