Description
The lightest Tensor ever made, Tensor™ Elite is NEMO’s sleeping pad solution for hyper-streamlined hikers. Offered only in gram-shaving mummy silhouettes, the 2.4 R-value pad is made using 10D CORDURA® nylon to protect from punctures and insulated with a single layer of Thermal Mirror™ film for an ethereal 240-gram weight.
Made using our innovative Apex™ baffle system, Tensor Elite boasts the even weight distribution and stable comfort the pad series is known for — but does so while using less material. At 3 inches thick, Tensor Elite still provides plenty of plush cushioning and is whisper-quiet all night long, proving that you don’t need to sacrifice quality sleep when you’re on the trail.
Like all NEMO air pads, this one is outfitted with a Laylow™ valve that pairs with the included Vortex™ pump sack for easy, rapid inflation. (Tensor Elite can be inflated without Vortex, too — but we promise it’s a worthwhile addition of just a couple ounces.)
