Thermarests's Z-Seat is a durable, superlight closed-cell camping seat which features a heat reflective ThermaCapture coating on one side to help keep your bottom warm.
With its accordion-style design and closed-cell foam construction, the Z Seat camping seat is an ounce-counter's solution to on-the-spot comfort. It's virtually indestructible and superlight, making it ideal for backpacking, ski touring and relaxing on rough terrain. Available with or without our warmth-boosting, reflective ThermaCapture™ surface treatment, there's hardly a place that the added comfort isn't worth it.
The Therm-a-Rest Z-Seat(SOL) is basically a mini version of the popular Z Lite SOL mattress. The proprietary foams are softer on top for extra comfort and denser on the bottom for extra durability. Ideal if you think you're going to be encountering rough terrain as it's practically indestructible. And at under 60g it's not going to add a lot of weight for that extra little bit of comfort.
The ThermaCapture coating provides additional insulation from cold ground making this an ideal seat for the ski tourer or backpacker.
The best sit mat I've had and I have had a few. It's so light yet very comfortable and the elastic to keep it together is a good feature and works well.

Great little product
The Z Seat is great light way to add some comfort to your journeys. It was of great benefit during a torturous return journey from Scotland due to a broken down van. With lots of down time to kill the X Seat helped stave off the chill waiting around on benches and mid-walk breaks.
