It’s a great mat, ideal for summer use or, as I intend to use it, doubled up with another mat in colder weather. Klymit created and uses Body Mapping Technology, which puts pressure in key places for sleep comfort.

There is no insulation inside, so for cooler trips this may be a bit cold for some, but for most summer trips it should be fine. The Double is a couple’s pad, and the Junior is for children or ultralighter’s that want a torso pad.

Klymalite™ lofted synthetic insulation in the pad offers exceptional warmth without the dreaded crinkle noise of other insulated pads. Destroying all notions of how luxurious a sleeping pad can truly be, the Static V Luxe has a V-chamber design to mirror the contours of your muscular structure, which eliminates painful pressure points and traps all of your precious body heat. Provided that you find that sweet spot pressure, it's comfortable — of course that holds true for any inflatable. The V-shape cradles your body, so you don’t slip off your pad or twist your sleeping bag around in the middle of the night. 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.

With the Therm-A- Rest I always wished that the width would be 2 inches wider; at 23 inches the Static V is perfect.just a cheaper version of the name branded models, with what seem to be mythological "features" described by marketing execs instead of real world backpackers. It also limits where the air can go when you roll around, helping to keep your body from touching the ground at your heavier points. These days, Ana can be found spending most of her "down-time" out in the wilderness, climbing, hiking, camping and beyond.

The narrow channels that connect each baffle do a great job of reducing bounce while sleeping on the pad. A few months back, I purchased Klymit's Static V air only sleeping pad to bolster my sleeping pad line. Klymit's Static V Insulated sleeping mat uses synthetic insulation to deliver a warm sleeping mat with optimised baffle pattern for comfort. As the name suggests, the sleeping pad has a “V” shape from the center, while the outer edges are rectangles that form somewhat of a side rail.We haven’t found another brand that offers the same combination of quality, durability, comfort and value – or a better night’s sleep.
