NEMO redefined the classic closed-cell foam sleeping pad to deliver more thickness and plush comfort in an industry-leading packed size. Switchback™ features hexagonal nodes, which are molded with our dual-density Axiotomic™ foam to create Hypnoelastic™ zones that conform to your body in a perfect balance of comfort and support. 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.
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 filmreflects heat back to your body and is protected by a durable film.
Axiotomic™ dual-density foamis optimized for well-balanced compression and abrasion resistance.
