Summary
A nice luxury for backpacking, worth the few extra ounces; comfortable and fits nicely into a mummy bag. I've used mine for a few years backpacking/kayaking. I plan to ship one to my nephew in Afghanistan — way more comfortable than boots!
Pros
- Firmness is adjustable
- Outer fabric is comfortable to the touch.
- Just the right size to fit into a mummy bag.
Cons
- Pack size is a bit big. To optimize compression, I take the self inflating core out, compress it, and secure with the Velcro strap; the pillow itself can then be stuffed in a small bag.
Where to Buy
