Klymit V Ultralite SL camping pad review
Keeping your load as light as possible when backpacking is imperative to comfort, stamina, and just being able to go farther without killing your shoulders. But the problem with a lot of lightweight gear is that you sacrifice comfort to save a few grams of weight. I’ve been a fan of Klymit’s camping gear for…

Klymit KSB 20˚ Oversized Down Sleeping Bag review
Why is it that sleeping bags are one-size-fits-all? People come in all body shapes and sizes, but sleeping bags generally are all the same length and width.

Klymit Luxe Pillow review
Pillows are the most uncomfortable bit of camping gear, in my opinion. Backpacking camp pillows generally are too small, and the inflatable types make your head slide off. Others just don’t have enough support and give me a kink in my neck come morning. But my opinion may have changed after testing the new Klymit…

Klymit Insulated Static V Lite camping pad review
Let’s face it: the worst part about backpacking is sleeping on the ground. Sure, you can pack a cushy, heavy sleeping pad to keep rocks and roots from digging into your back, but most are too heavy to carry miles into the mountains. But the good folks at Centerville-based Klymit have been offering super light…
