Xtherm alternative?

I asked about an Xtherm a few weeks ago at my local REI, which had none in stock. The REI employee searched by computer and found quite a number of Xtherms available at other stores, and gave me a slip to take to the register to buy one of these for shipment (not sure if shipment was going to be to me or to the store). So you might try that. I ended up buying one on eBay, since I didn't have an REI gift card to consider.

These MW size Exped pads will be coming out for Spring 2015, most likely available in late Jan/Feb, for those who prefer the vertical baffles of the Exped pads. These are very light weights for high R-values, and if the construction is similar to the existing Exped pads, they should be very durable. These specs are from Exped USA.

Downmat Winterlite: MW 21.8oz, R-Value 8.0
Synmat Winterlite: MW 18.6oz, R-Value 6.0
Synmat Hyperlite: MW 14.4oz, R-Value 3.1

I'd bet that the new XTherm MAX pads will also be available at REI's in the not too distant future… Right now is just that time though when they are making way with the old to bring in the new…

It's what I have. Not sure how it stacks up with xtherm, but it did well on snow in single digit.

The new Xtherm Max should be in stock really soon. It just launched at MEC (Canadian equivalent of REI) last week. My guess is you'll see it at REI in the next 14 days.
