Oblivion Description: Getting good sleep on the trail isn’t a “bonus” in the backcountry. It’s absolutely necessary for your mind to be alert and for you to be fully present during your adventures, and a comfortable sleeping pad is one of the most important items to help you get the rest you need.
The Oblivion Sleeping Pad is a more comfortable 3 season pad that will help you sleep better in the outdoors without carrying extra weight! The 3-inch thick tufted I-beam cushion construction will keep your shoulders and hips off the ground whether you’re a side sleeper or if you sleep on your back.
So what about insulation? Multi-layer reflective insulation gives the pad an R-Value of 3.5 (ASTM R-value Standard) - perfect for 3 season adventures! But we didn’t stop there. We’ve added a reflective top fabric to help you retain as much of your own body heat as possible!
What this means is that you get a sleeping pad that’s warmer, more comfortable, & lightweight! You can sleep better in the backcountry without having to carry extra pounds with you!
