Product Information
Full details
The Highlander Comfort Camper Mat is an essential piece of equipment for campers, backpackers, and outdoor enthusiasts who prioritize portability without sacrificing thermal protection. Constructed from durable, ultralight EVA foam, this mat effectively insulates the body from cold or damp ground while shielding the user from uneven terrain and sharp debris. While its simple, non-inflatable design offers excellent reliability and ease of use, it lacks the cushioned thickness found in expensive self-inflating or air-chamber sleeping pads.

FAQs
Is this mat suitable for winter camping?
While it offers insulation, it is best suited for three-season camping. For extreme winter conditions, we recommend pairing it with a higher-rated insulated sleeping pad.
How do I attach the mat to my backpack?
Most hikers use external gear straps or elastic shock cords to secure the rolled-up mat to the bottom or side of their rucksack.
Will sharp rocks damage the mat?
The EVA foam is durable and will withstand contact with stones and twigs that would otherwise puncture an inflatable pad.
Can this be used inside a tent?
Yes, it is designed to be used inside a tent as a ground liner for your sleeping bag.
Is the material toxic?
The mat is made from standard EVA foam, which is generally safe for outdoor recreational use.
Troubleshooting
Mat does not lie completely flat when unrolled.
The mat may retain a curl from long-term storage. Roll it in the opposite direction for a few minutes to counteract the curve.
Surface feels dirty after camping on mud.
Use a damp sponge or cloth with warm water to wipe the surface. Because the material is closed-cell foam, it will not absorb the water.

Setup, Compatibility & Care

Care Instructions:
- After use, shake off any loose dirt or debris.
- If the mat becomes wet or muddy, clean it with a damp cloth and mild soap.
- Allow the mat to air dry completely in the shade before rolling it up for storage.
- Store the mat in a cool, dry place, away from direct sunlight and sharp objects to maintain the integrity of the foam.
