Is there a reason why I shouldn't get this and should wait for the Prolite 3 to be in stock?

This pad has replaced the ProLite 3 @ basically the same weight. Depending on your usage, also consider the women's ProLite Plus. It's .5" thicker & has an R-Value rating of 4.6 for extra warmth as compared to 2.8 for the ProLite. The ProLite Plus weighs eight ounces more.

Jane,Therm-a-rest says this one is lighter than previous ProLite 3 models. Plus, I'm not sure if the ProLite 3 will be restocked, ask a BC rep in live chat if you want to make sure. Therm-a-Rest link below:www.thermarest.com/product_detail.aspx?pID=42&cID=1-----------The Prolite 3 is being replaced by the Prolite which is lighter and more compact. BC.com won't be getting anymore Prolite 3s in stock. I would recommend the women's model (if it's for you) because it will be slightly more insulated and firm based on the chevron cutouts in the torso and feet.
