NeoAir XTherm NXT MAX

4.6

Best four-season sleeping pad for winter mountaineers and cold-weather expeditions.

This is the gold standard for four-season explorers who refuse to compromise on warmth or weight. While the rectangular shape adds a bit more bulk than tapered alternatives, the massive boost in surface area and insulation makes it the ultimate choice for sleeping soundly on frozen ground.
