2.5-inch thickness can't be too crap in the cold... I don't have one so cannot comment.
The review rates it as the second warmest out of 17 mats. And it's tapered which may assist the OP.

Depends on which measurements you go by, my translation is 4 centimetres overlapping on each mat at the 183 centimetre mark.Onestepmore wrote:So at the 180 cm mark you're going to have 7.5 cm overlapping on each mat?
A valid point not related to this topic, but as I walk usually with my wife, it would be great if the two expeds clipped together so as not to allow the creation of a gap between us through the night (that I invariably end up in).Onestepmore wrote:PS Hubby just came in with his 2c worth. He reckons it's more important that the mats stick together, than if they fit.
