| Ultralight Outdoor Gear - REGULAR / FULL LENGTH Sleeping Mat Comparison Chart |
| 'R-values' are a measure of insulation and are based on a mattress being fully inflated. The higher the value, the warmer you will sleep. For a higher R-value, fully inflate your mattress. Tog values are quoted by Multimat - from our research a rough rule of thumb is that an R-Value of 1 is equivalent to 1.76 Tog. |
