Sleeping mat: Therm-a-rest neoair
The Irish company Therm-A-Rest’s self-inflating NeoAir mattresses are made of parachute fabric, which is incredibly light.
Keeps you warm
The matrix of internal stabilising walls help reduce that irritating wobbly feeling like you’re sleeping on a water bed. There’s also a reflective foil layer in the middle that directs body heat back at you for extra insulation. It’s available in two lengths: small (119 x 51 cm) and regular (183 x 51 cm).
Price: Small R1 350; regular R1 750 (Note: Prices accurate in February 2010)

Go! says: The parachute fabric is light, but also thin. If you’re hard on your gear or like to camp wild amongst wag-’n-bietjie bushes, pack a repair kit.
