Founded in 1981, Rab has been making outdoor kit for exactly as long as I’ve been alive, but it only got into the sleeping pad game three years ago. I’ve loved their down jackets, waterproofs and winter gloves, so I was keen to get them out in the wild and finally managed to do so this spring.
The line of sleeping pads includes the Hypersphere Ultra (very warm) and the Ionosphere 5 (light and lofty), both of which we’ve rated highly at T3, but the Exosphere is a little less technical, more of a well-priced all-rounder. Don’t let that put you off, however, as it’s a great piece of kit.
