Description

The Eco Thermo 6 is the outdoor industry’s first carbon-neutral sleeping pad.

Pacific Outdoor Equipment purchases renewable wind and solar power to offset the CO2 produced from manufacturing and shipping the pads, thereby making the pad’s carbon footprint neutral. Available in men’s and women’s versions; the women’s has double insulation in the foot area.
