Thermarest Prolite
By Steve_P
Ranked #545 - Lightweight Sleep Pads
October 22, 2009
I have the older orange model, 20" X 72" X 1.5" thick- I think it's called the prolite 4 but not sure; it weighs 24.5 oz in the stuff sack. These newer lighter mats do not really self- inflate like the earlier t-rest mats, but c'mon, stop complaining about it. The t-rest I replaced was 1" thick and weighs the same as the 1.5" thick prolite model. Yeah, the old model self-inflated much more but which would you rather have? You can't have it all in backpacking! Anyway, great product for a great nite's sleep.
