Product Information

There are however some methods that you can use to determine a product’s quality without needing to physically have it. Terra Nova Solar Photon 2 tent – very cosy for 2 (you need to be very good friends/married/tiny), roomy for one, super lightweight and the poles fit in a 53 cm frame bag but it is a little bit fragile if you are not careful.

We’re really pleased to have scored OEX Traverse IMX Sleeping Mat so highly, givimg it 9.6 out of 10, making it well above the average for all Sleeping Mats. Closed-Cell Foam mats are a tried and tested industry standard. These mats are durable, and relatively inexpensive compared to other sleeping mats available. So if you are planning on some extreme wild camping expeditions, foam camping mats are a good choice. For your fairly normal wild camping trips, there are better options available. Inflatable Mats

Read on in our OEX Traverse 2.5 sleeping mat review! Overall verdict on the OEX Traverse 2.5 Sleeping Mat

All the rest of the stuff went into the tailfin bag, which still had plenty of room and could have fit a stove and extra food if needed. The roll top was also really useful once we were set up as stuff could just be thrown in due to the upright sides. Things to consider… The material the product is made from is often a sign of the quality for Sleeping Mats. Take a look at the product details over at Go Outdoors to get a feel for this.On the good side, it’s fairly easy to use the nozzle to let out a little air if you prefer a slightly softer mat. Although there’s very little air inside to play with! However, this is much heavier than quite a lot of other sleeping mats out there, some of which are almost half as heavy. That being said, the OEX Traverse 2.5 is much cheaper than most of these, so if you’re on a budget you might be okay with 1 kg. So when it came to trying the Traverse mat out, I pulled it out of its carry bag, took off the elastic bands, loosened the valve and threw it lengthwise onto the ground triumphantly. Aaand … nothing happened! Tunnel tents: These tents are great for weekend and summer camping as they offer lots of space, are easy to pitch and use traditional poles. However, they are often heavier than other shapes. Standard spares in Velopac pouch (brake pads, gear cable, valve cores, mech hanger, multi tool, leatherman squirt, reusable cable ties, tubeless repair poker and worms)

Spare long sleeve merino base layer (I normally sleep in these two items, but also there in case I get sodden) Map and compass – love being able to print on OS maps it matches perfectly with komoot to have a combo of new and old schoolExped SynMat HL mat – I have tried super lightweight mats (like the Alpkit Numo) over the years but I just get too cold; this has become my default option
