My son just got one. He used it last weekend at 27 degrees and said it worked really well. He was warm. I went with a Big Agness Q core and it worked really well too. I have a thermorest but it is way to big to hike with. And he moved to a backpacking pad also. Mine kept me warm in a hammock..

I recently bought a Klymit inertia xframe in camo directly from Klymit's ebay page. I haven't tried it yet but you can't beat them for $34.95 w/free shipping. I'll be trying it out in May while hammock camping

I have the Klymit INteria X-lite. I like it for ultra light back packing and bike packing. When weight isn't so important I use a heavier pad.

Does anyone have any experience with Klymit sleep pads? Any problems staying warm with the skeletal design? ? How do they compare with Therma-Rest? Thank you. Long time Therma-rest guy, the Klymit's are noticeably colder. But the all things considered the reduced packed size and weight makes it my go to packing pad. DannerTrax |

I have a Klymit Static V insulated pad. It's too thin if you're a side sleeper. Should be OK if you sleep on your back.

It's a summer pad. Definitely sleeps cold, since there's essentially zero insulation.
I have the Xframe, and it's a great pad for the summer trips I take. Can't beat something that packs down to the size of a coke can. It keeps my pack
Also, they can start to leak because of all the seams on them. Some seamgrip and a bathtub will fix it. |

The klymit inertia pads seem warmer when you put them inside the sleeping bag in my experience. They are great when my girlfriend and I zip our sleeping bags up together.

Was a bit cold but had hand earners in my bag which made sleeping fine. Only way I was able to sleep was on my back. |

Went to sleep sweating, woke up sweating 
I can say that I'm still undecided on these sort of pads as they have no 'give'. You inflate all the way and they are solid. You deflate a little and they're still only so-so. Deflating any further defeats the purpose. I also have the Klymit x-pillow. Same story, no give. But they certainly pack down nice and small.  DryTortugas-8553 by Dan Passaro, on Flickr
