Klymit V Sheet for your Static V Sleeping Pad (New)

...usate un cuscino gonfiabile. Realisticamente, a cosa serve? Non offre nessuna protezione, ma un eventuale cuscini resta ben fissato e non scappa più in giro. Il tessuto è piacevole al tatto e probabilmente offre un grip maggiore, quindi se dormite con leggera pendenza si 'scivola' meno. Nel complesso, ben fatto, ma troppo costoso.

I have owned two of these Klymit V Sheets for almost two years. I also have two each of the Klymit Static V Pad and Klymit X Pillow. The sheet and pillow are absolutely amazing together, and are both fantastic pieces of engineering that none of Klymit's competitors (surprisingly) seem to have picked up on. The pad needs improvement - especially with the air valve - but I'll get to that in another review. My son is an Eagle Scout. Over the past seven years, we have tent camped over 125 nights, with many of those spent deep in the backcountry. We've also spent nights sprawled out wherever we could find space on a catamaran, and on uncomfortable cots and flat mattresses in rustic cabins. As he's aged, our camping habits have changed. The bulky Coleman pads and sleeping bags were replaced with feather-light Thermarest pads and narrow Nemo mummy bags. We've learned what works and what doesn't, and have realized the need to have a variety of gear options for different seasons and scenarios. I purchased our Klymit sleep systems shortly before we embarked on a 5-night sailing trip in the Bahamas. I wanted something that would pack down small because we had to fit all of our gear into 45L duffel bags, and I also wanted an additional option for warm-weather backpacking. The Klymit Static V with sheet and pillow fit that bill nicely, especially when paired with a Horizon Hound 55 degree quilt. The whole system packed down so small that it could be contained in a 2 gallon Ziplock bag along with a Flextail air pump and a pair of sleep shorts and t-shirt with room to spare. While this system was purchased for a specific purpose, it has become my go-to for warm weather camping and any cabin camping. This review is specifically for the Klymit Static V Sheet, and it is absolutely my favorite part of the sleep system. So much so that we have begun using the sheet and pillow on another manufacturer's pad that is better insulated and has a better air valve system. The material on the sheet is very soft and stays firmly in place thanks to the strap that wraps around the underside of the pad. It makes sleeping on the pad in summer a pleasant experience, and I love that it protects the pad from sweat, body oil, and other grime. It seems to hold up well in the washing machine. After two years and several washes, both sheets are still in good shape (although one has a slight run in the fabric). The pillow sleeve is a fantastic idea, and extremely useful. We used to carry small pillow cases with us in order to protect our pillows. Inevitably, my pillow would slide off the pad and I'd find myself fumbling around searching for it in the middle of the night. The sleeve on the Klymit sheet holds the pillow firmly in place, whether I'm using the small Klymit X Pillow or a larger Thermarest foam pillow. A few other manufacturers have started making sheets for their pads (like Thermarest), but Zenbivy is the only other one I've found that has a method to secure your pillow. I did just purchase a Zenbivy Light Sleep System for 3-season backpacking, but I have not yet had the chance to use it. And the Klymit system is certainly much less of a financial investment. The one complaint I have is that the pad does tend to curl up a little when you attach the sheet, although it usually flattens back out once you lay down on it. This is a minor annoyance compared to the comfort and functionality of the sheet. I believe Klymit has used the same design for a number of years, and the only suggestion for improvement I have is that I wish there were some loops on the edges of the sheet so you could fasten down a quilt. This is one thing that the Thermarest sheet does offer, and Zenbivy has their own proprietary system to attach their quilts and prevent air gaps. I will probably use my new Zenbivy system and Nemo Tensor Regular Wide Pad when we go backpacking in New Mexico this summer. But my son will be using his Nemo Tensor Regular Pad with a new REI Magma 30 Quilt. And I can guarantee he'll be taking along his Klymit Static V Sheet and Klymit X Pillow to complete his sleep system.

No need to compromise on quality. Fits right, and pillows stay where they are meant to be. If you have the Klymit V double just invest in this and the pillows and have a great sleep.

got this sheet for my V klymit sleeping pad and it fits on it like a perfect glove, great addition to cover the main pad from dirt or other contaminants and felt like it added a little bit of extra insulation. Very easy to to put it on and take it off

Love it
