Base Mat

The Base Mat XPE is a lightweight, no-fuss option for summer sleepaway trips or for adding a barrier of warmth and protection beneath your main sleeping mat year-round.

Made from moulded XPE closed-cell foam, it provides a basic layer of comfort and R1.5 insulation that won’t absorb moisture or wear out on rough terrain. Its raised bump pattern adds extra cushioning while helping trap pockets of warm air next to the body.

The accordion-style design with 14 folding sections makes it quick to set up, easy to pack away, and simple to strap onto the outside of your pack. At just 324 grams, it's one of the lightest ways to improve sleep comfort in the bush, whether you're glassing on a ridgeline, taking a break, or settling in for the night.
