Product Information
Full details
The Sea to Summit Pursuit Self-Inflating Sleeping Mat is designed for lightweight backpackers seeking a balance of comfort, durability, and packability for three-season use. Its key benefit lies in the innovative Delta Core technology, which significantly reduces foam density for a lighter and more compact mat without sacrificing insulation. A potential caveat for some users might be its 3-season rating, limiting its use in extreme cold conditions.

FAQs
What is Delta Core technology?
Delta Core technology refers to the process of removing over 40% of the foam from the self-inflating mat. This significantly reduces the mat's weight and packed size while maintaining its insulation and durability for comfort.
What is the R-Value of this mat?
The R-Value is not explicitly stated in the product information, but it is rated for 3-season use, indicating it provides adequate insulation for spring, summer, and fall conditions. It is not designed for sub-zero temperatures.
How do I clean the sleeping mat?
Clean the mat using a damp cloth and a mild soap if necessary. Rinse with clean water and allow it to air dry completely before storing. Avoid using harsh chemicals or abrasive cleaners.
Can I use this mat in freezing temperatures?
No, this mat has a 3-season rating and is intended for use in mild to cool conditions. It is not designed for extreme cold or winter camping where sub-zero temperatures are expected.
What does 'RCS-certified recycled' mean for the fabric?
RCS (Recycled Claim Standard) certification means the fabric is made from recycled materials, and the supply chain has been audited to ensure the recycled content. This promotes a lower environmental impact.
What is included with the mat?
The mat comes with a side-loading stuff sack and a field repair kit for easy puncture repair.
How thick is the mat when inflated?
The Pursuit Self-Inflating Sleeping Mat is 2 inches (5 cm) thick when fully inflated.
Troubleshooting
Mat not fully inflating
Ensure the XPEL valve is correctly positioned for inflation. Add additional breaths to reach desired firmness. Check for any potential slow leaks and use the included repair kit if necessary.
Mat deflates overnight
Check the XPEL valve seal to ensure it is fully closed and undamaged. Inspect the mat for any punctures or tears and repair them using the provided kit. Ensure the mat is not placed near sharp objects.
Difficult to pack down
Ensure the XPEL valve is set to the 'deflate' position. Roll the mat as tightly as possible from the foot end, applying consistent pressure. The valve is designed to prevent re-inflation, but firm rolling is key.
Surface fabric feels sticky
This may be due to the DWR coating. Clean with a damp cloth. Avoid prolonged exposure to heat or direct sunlight when not in use.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
Setup: Unroll the mat and place it on a flat surface. Open the XPEL valve by flipping the lever to the 'inflate' position. The mat will begin to self-inflate. Once partially inflated, add a few breaths to reach your desired firmness by blowing into the valve. To pack, flip the valve to the 'deflate' position and tightly roll the mat from the foot end, pressing down to expel air. The valve design will prevent re-inflation as you roll.
Compatibility: This mat is designed for solo use. It is compatible with most tents and sleeping bags. Ensure the surface you place it on is free from sharp objects.
Care: Clean the mat with a damp cloth and mild soap if necessary. Avoid harsh chemicals or abrasive cleaners. Always ensure the mat is completely dry before storing it long-term to prevent mildew. Store the mat loosely rolled in its stuff sack, away from direct sunlight and extreme temperatures.
