Sea to Summit Pursuit Plus Sleeping Pad

Yes, the contour shape is specifically designed to provide extra width where you need it most, allowing you to shift positions without sliding off the edge. Combined with the 3-inch thickness, it offers enough loft to cushion your hips and shoulders.

The pad uses an open-cell foam core that expands when you open the XPEL valve, drawing air in automatically. While it will do most of the work on its own, you may want to add a few breaths at the end to reach your preferred firmness.

With an ASTM-tested R-Value of 4.2, this pad is rated for three-season use. It provides sufficient insulation for spring, summer, and autumn, but it is not designed for deep winter or sub-freezing temperatures.

When packed down, the pad measures 12 inches in length and 6 inches in diameter. It is compact enough for most trekking packs, though it is slightly bulkier than ultralight air-only pads due to the internal foam.

Horizontal delta coring removes excess foam from the pad's interior to reduce weight and packed size. This engineering allows the pad to remain supportive and comfortable while significantly lightening your overall load.

No, a repair kit is not included with this model. It is always a good idea to carry a small patch kit compatible with 20-denier fabrics just in case of an accidental puncture in the field.
