We’ve brought nerdy design and engineering to the closed-cell foam sleeping pad, bringing the first new idea in these durable, go-anywhere pads in decades. By mathematical magic, we designed the Switchback to be 20% thicker, more plush, and more comfortable than the current leading pads… all while packing down even smaller. The high-quality, dual-density foam is designed for reliable comfort and is metallized for a heatreflective surface that traps warmth.

A lightweight sleeping pad that's ready for any adventure. The Switchback™ redefines the classic foam sleeping pad with a thicker, more comfortable construction and packed size. The Hexagonal nodes and foam technology provide extra cushioning where you need it most, so you can rest easy whether you're relaxing on the beach or hitting the trail.

Switchback™ also leverages a metalized thermal film layer to efficiently reflect heat back to your body. Blend that with 15% more heat-trapping space, this new innovative design is able to deliver a warmer, more comfortable sleep than other pads in this category. 

  • Hypnoelastic™ zones and the unique hexagonal pattern conforms to your body and provides a thicker, more supportive surface, providing solid resistance to bottoming out
  • With 15% more heat-trapping space, Switchback delivers a warmer, more comfortable sleep than other pads in this category.
  • Highly-efficient, hexagonal nesting pattern allocates more space for taller, wider nodes, providing significantly greater plushness.
  • More precise tooling eliminates wasted space between folded layers, enabling taller nodes to nest tighter for a smaller packed size.
  • Taller nodes create more space for uncompressed sleeping bag insulation, trapping more warmth around your body.
  • Premium dual-density Axiotomic™ foam offers a supple layer for comfort and a resilient layer for support.
  • Metalized thermal reflective film reflects heat back to your body and is protected by a durable film.
  • Axiotomic™ dual-density foam is optimized for well-balanced compression and abrasion resistance.
  • Extremely easy to use, delivers comfort and security on all types of adventuresfrom mountaineering, thru-hiking, or camping on a budget.
  • Folding panel design allows for lightning-fast, easy set up and packing.
  • Use as a standalone pad for ultralight durability and comfort or pair with another pad for extra insulation and comfort in extreme cold conditions.
  • Protected by the NEMO Lifetime Warranty.

Good service. Good product.

Needed a lightweight sleeping pad option that wouldn't break the bank. This is it. I was expecting old school foam mat comfort, however, I get a better night sleep on this than my UL sea to summit inflatable pad. Service was smooth - ordered item, updated notifications for tracking, and delivered a couple days after purchase. I have since purchased a second one for my son.

This mat has been a great purchase, used it under my inflatable mat to increase the warmth & it stopped my inflatable mat slipping around, so light and versatile.

Very comfy, a must buy.

I've owned a lot of these style mats and this is the comfiest by far. It's thick and warm. Whilst being smaller that my other mats like this, I think it's ok, the reduction in width means the sides get less scratched on passing trees. I just wish it came with a protective sack like other brands do, as I'm worried about small bits of foam shedding in the bush.
