You have to wonder who selects these items.
Look and read carefully, as these pads are made for the Hobbits of the World, well almost.
More like Dwarves! LOL
But probably even not wide enough for a Dwarf!
Unless you are 5.11" or less, these pads will not work well for you.
I am taken aback that there was ZERO Long and Wide offering on these pads, as I guess they think that everyone is under 6 feet tall, and thin as a rail.
Excuse me if I have missed something, but I see no long or wide offerings!

Welcome back Sassinator33--  I personally use a gossamer gear short pad at about 5 ounces and have never used the Klymit pad.  I sometimes think that I would like to have a longer pad and would carry more for the comfort.  You can go too far in UL weight savings.   What do you use personally and what do you really think of this offering from MassDrop?

Hi , I would like to use one with my hammock. Do you think it is rigid enough to avoid some of the banana shape of a hennesy hammock ?

Yea, a bivy could be an issue. But, I don't think any tent would be. Popular examples, Solomid innernet - 27"W; Zpacks Solplex - 30"W; Tarptent Notch - 32"W. ON the contrary, two people sleeping in a two man tent (Zpacks Duplex - 45"W) would indeed have an issue. These days with crazy light shelter weights, though, I think a lot of duos are using three man tents and it seems that there are way more solo hikers than duos. FWIW...

Newguy@Newguy - I think you're right, most 1P shelters would accommodate a wider pad, but 2P shelters would be a squeeze. And like you said, a lot of people 'size up' because many shelters are not so spacious.

Just for clarification, these pads are not the same pads you can currently buy from Klymit. These seem to be a Massdrop exclusive that weighs almost half a pound less than the non-ultralight version.

We would consider coming out with a 25"-wide version and a torso version - those seem to be the most popular requests so far. Thanks @madllama for the post.

DannyMilksI am going to pick up a non-insulated version in this size. If you come out with the 25, I 'd definitely be interested in picking that up in an insulated in the wider size.

Here's a super thorough review from fellow Massdrop member @HubeyDoobyDoo. I think he does a really great job of reviewing the pad, while at the same time offering some eduction about sleeping pad design and construction and how this compares to other pads. Check it out!

Oh, I dunno. Lots of ways to skin a cat. Save a pound on your shelter, add six ounces to your pad, whatever works. Or if a slightly heavier item has merits you like/need and pushes you over an arbitrary 10lb category designation...will you actually notice? Don't think they can - or should, rather - go with anything lighter than 20d for a sleeping pad. That sounds like folly with the current construction/design. One thing that has been really awesome in the last 10 years is the nice ultralight cushy air-up sleeping pads that we have now...even the "heavy" ones are still lighter and more compact than previous choices, apples to apples. I'm at 15oz for my pad now and if I bumped it up 2-4 oz for a little more r-value and a wider width, I'd be a happier cat. I wouldn't bother with worrying about the weight difference, but could easily make up for that elsewhere and still be well under 10lbs. Honestly I don't notice a difference on my back until around three pounds or so anyway, no big deal...just shoot for where you want to be and don't obsess over the numbers, assuming you're making good overall choices to begin with.

If half my gear is ultralight and half is not, I'm still coming out lighter than where I started. Winning.

Any chance of getting an ultralight version like this but of klymit's new double wide size?

UL wide version - waiting with bated breath. I'm down with green but if they could do the UL fabric in king's camo I'd pay double. King's camo and a flat valve, I'd give my first born.

I think there is demand out there. Just look at the Massdrop conversation (from someone who should know) about trying to hack it together :) https://www.massdrop.com/talk/741/diy-making-a-2-person-sleeping-pad?referer=SYTR2N

It'll be taken care of. You received this default message, but you're on the list for exceptions and you should get some follow up later. Thanks.

DannyMilksAlright, so now I've been charged for both, and no one's gotten back to me... How much later are we talking?

Klymit is a keeper. It's not only lighter but much smaller. Comfortable too! Don't really understand the fuss about the noise; but that's probably because we were busying thinking about climbing Mt. Ritter the next day.

i have three of these, an old version, a light version and an insulated version. i like them a lot. i am kinda shocked at what these list for currently. if you were willing to put up with a wimpy color (for example pink camo) you could get a great price. it takes a real man to sleep on a pink pad, IMHO. also - no one will steal it... http://www.klymit.com/static-v-pink-camo.html

Any chance more insulated pads will become available? Seems there is ample interest. I'm not interested in the uninsulated pad.

Insulated is a four season pad (a pro). Packs a little bigger than the non- insulated (a con). The site provides a description of both pads with pack size and weight.

An insulated pad is more versatile. During cold weather camping, you can get a nice insulated sleeping bag, but once you lay on it, you flatten all of the insulation and lose your body heat to the ground. An insulated pad prevents this from happening.

We have plenty of the lighter, more affordable uninsulated version available but have already sold out of the last of our stock of the insulated pad. We've already got a production run going and the insulated versions should be available again before the end of the year. Thanks for the great community response!

DannyMilksAwesome! I'll definitely join the drop for an insulated one in either of these colors.
Please don't change the colors.
