A lightweight sit mat using closed-cell foam, protected by mesh fabric.
Gossamer Gear says:
This upgraded Air Flow Sit Pad doubles as an back panel padding for our packs and an ultralight camp chair. Available in 3 sizes.
For the Murmur you will want the Medium size pad. For all other packs order the same size as your pack.
The Air Flow SitLight ultralight camp seat. Designed specifically to be used in the pad pocket of any of our overnight backpacks. This multi-use feather-light pad will give structure to your pack, cushion your back and allow some air to circulate between you and the pack while keeping the pack body close to you. The SitLight can also be used to sit on in camp or during breaks, to lengthen your existing sleep pad or as a base for your pillow.
The foam is amazingly light and strong for its density. The pads are tough, flexible and resilient, and exhibit good UV stability.
Our Verdict
The updated Air Flow SitLight Camp Seat is designed to be used with Gossamer Gears' new 2024 range of ultralight packs, such as the "Mariposa 60," "Gorilla 50," and "Kumo 36." (If you're uncertain about which version you have, please don't hesitate to contact our customer service team for clarification.) Unlike traditional sitmats, which are simply foam scraps from old mats, this seat provides more.
The seat promotes good ventilation and breathability, preventing you from overheating and providing comfort while on the trail. Additionally, it can be placed underneath your pillow to enhance its comfort and warmth.
Gossamer Gear claims that the seat is 2 cm thick, but we found it to be closer to 1.4 cm thick. Nevertheless, it still offers the necessary comfort.
