Hey look, a new Thermarest: NeoAir

Just came on my radar, a new Thermarest under the name “NeoAir. Touted (of course) as the best damn thing ever to happen to sleeping outside it does actually appeal to me. Primarily, I’m impressed by it’s tiny compacted size.

Also shaves a few ounces off the previous ProLite and supposedly provides more warmth with diagnol cut blah blah marketing stuff etc. I’ve been using an REI Lite-Core 1.5, including on my SE Asia trip, and it’s comfortable but seems susceptible to valve failure (accounts online and my own failed but was replaced by REI in store, I love REI). May think about trading in for this sucker though.

    I have one of these and really like it! So light and so compact. My only worry is that it will get a hole in it and deflate. I hear it’s pretty tough though. Not as tough as my older thermarest that I could lay out against a pine tree or a granite rock but tough enough for the tent. Too bad it was so spendy!
