Moisture pads and sleeping pads

Moisture pads and sleeping pads

Moisture pads come in many styles, shapes and lengths. If possible, you can try different styles of moisture-proof pads and then decide. There are other questions you may also consider:

How soft do you need a moisture-proof pad?

How long and how wide do you need a moisture-proof pad? (Moisture pads are available for single, double or multiple people, and some are made very narrow in order to save space)

Is it convenient to inflate, fold and carry?

At the end, some accessory designs may influence your decision. For example, some moisture-proof pads have multiple inflatable air chambers, making the thickness of the moisture-proof pad easier to adjust; while the moisture-proof pad combined with an inflatable pillow makes you more comfortable to use; the moisture-proof pad with a textured surface can provide thermal insulation and anti-slip functions. can be improved; some are designed with a conical moisture-proof pad that conforms to the human body to save space. (Unfortunately, these designs are rare in the domestic market)

The above are some suggestions on the selection of moisture-proof pads.

For sleeping pads, warmth, weight, comfort, durability and size are important in that order. But for a climber, being able to sleep well at night may be a very important thing. If you're used to sleeping naked on an oversized wooden bed, it's best to opt for a luxurious two-inch, full-length open-cell foam sleeping pad without worrying about weight. If you're someone who can sleep on a firmer bed, a three-quarter-length closed-cell foam sleeping pad will suffice. A half-length closed-cell foam sleeping pad can be used when young, or a lightweight, three-quarter-length inflatable foam sleeping pad when old, with hard and brittle bones. In winter, bring a full-length closed-cell foam pad and a complete repair patch kit to prevent the open-cell foam pad from snapping. Maybe when you first buy a moisture-proof pad, choose a cheaper single-person moisture-proof pad, because it will not hurt to lose that thing when you regret it.
