How to Secure a Montbell Pillow to an Exped UL7 Synmat

I do something similar, but your idea is lighter and probably more durable.

Impressive bit of ingenuity there. I guess I don't have any reasons left now to suffer though nights with my boots under my pad as a pillow.

Nicely done.

Very, very clever. Now why can't I think like that!

Thanks!!

The system in the photos above did not work; the toggle tore through the tape. The photos below show my new system, which is much more robust. For reference, I used 2.5″ Stick On Mitten Hooks from Zpacks, which can be purchased via this link:

I know that you already attached these to your pad…but…I found that even the stick on loops might eventually fail on you (I had made my own, though smaller, stick on loops).

I found an easier, cheaper, and I think, much stronger alternative…here is my latest post on the subject ->

The solution is just the gab of seam grip which is a simple/elegant solution.
