The NOMAD® Ultimate 5.0 is an ultra-compact, self-inflatable sleeping mat for comfortable nights in your tent. Thanks to its small packed size, this mat will fit your backpack with ease and you will always be sure to find a place for it in your car. Are you already tempted to venture out into the open?

The major benefit of this mat is that it can be stored it in a very compact format. Most foam mats must be rolled unfolded, meaning that the width of the eventual pack can still be substantial. With the Ultimate 5.0, the mat is first folded lengthwise, after which it can be rolled up.

The top of the Ultimate 5.0 is made from soft, stretchy polyester which follows your body contours when you are lying on the mat. This means that the mat provides good support and insulation for the pressure points of your body, such as your shoulders and hips. The outstanding comfort provided is also due to the horizontally perforated 5 cm deep foam used in this mat. Because the core of the foam is not solid, but has horizontal air holes, there is a huge saving on packed size and weight. At the same time, the foam has a high density, which ensures effective insulation. The foam has also been subjected to an antibacterial treatment to prevent the formation of mould.

The underside of the mat has an anti-slip surface which prevents the mat from sliding around; useful if you are camping on a sloping surface. The mat has been treated to be water-repellent using a nature-friendly (PFC-free) process.

The Ultimate 5.0 comes with a large valve for easy inflation and deflation. This valve has three positions: closed, semi-closed or open and the valve can easily be moved into the required position using just your fingers.

Once the mat has been rolled up, it can be stored in a compact format using the supplied stuff sack. An additional feature of this stuff sack is that it can be used as a pump to blow extra air into your mat if required. This sleeping mat also comes with a repair kit so that you can repair it yourself should the need arise.
