Been on the hunt for a sleeping pad and ran into a video about Sleeping Pads and R Values by MyLifeOutdoors.

I was pretty convinced about getting a foam / air pad (primarily for the sake of comfortable sleep) but watching this I'm considering closed-cell pads too.

I'm curious about people who have tried both and what skewed you to your current choice?

  • Do you think you sleep warmer on a closed-cell pad than a closed-cell pad of the same R value?

  • If you swapped to a closed-cell pad, were you comfortable sleeping on it from the get-go or did it take some getting used to?
