The maximum outdoor experience with minimal means.
Story of the <strong>Exped</strong><br />
Goose<br />
In 1981, deep in the<br />
wilderness of the<br />
Northwest Canadian<br />
Territories, <strong>Exped</strong><br />
founders Andi and<br />
Heidi Brun lived for 9<br />
months using simple<br />
tools and food gathered<br />
from Nature. Nothing<br />
impressed them<br />
more than the serene<br />
movements of the wild<br />
geese flying over head.<br />
Who in the world is <strong>Exped</strong>?<br />
<strong>Exped</strong> means <strong>Exped</strong>ition Equipment.<br />
Since 1997, the <strong>Exped</strong> Team has<br />
designed and built the highest quality,<br />
specialized gear for the active, outdoor<br />
enthusiast. Such equipment is designed<br />
to appeal to everyone from the casual<br />
hiker of the Appalachian Trail to the<br />
technical climber in the Himalayas.<br />
Every user expects his equipment to<br />
meet exacting requirements, and at<br />
<strong>Exped</strong>, we build products intended to<br />
surpass those expectations!<br />

<strong>Tents</strong> and <strong>Tarps</strong>
a > Easy setups:<br />
- slide poles into sleeves<br />
- secure poles into pockets<br />
- tension.<br />
And that’s it!<br />
Continuous sleeves allow poles to<br />
easily pass through intersections.<br />
Canopies are factory mounted, and<br />
just a few stakes and guy lines are<br />
needed to pitch any <strong>Exped</strong> tent.<br />
Color coded poles and sleeves<br />
eliminate guesswork.<br />
Reflective, glow-in-the-dark zipper<br />
pulls are easy to locate.<br />
Round shaped doors are easily<br />
operated with just one hand.<br />
2 types of pole sleeves:<br />
Exterior sleeves for easy setups; or,<br />
Interior sleeves for better weather<br />
protection & reduced wind<br />
resistance.<br />
Models with the <strong>Exped</strong>-developed<br />
“flat pole sleeve“ offer advantages<br />
of both interior and exterior sleeves.<br />
[Vela I, Vela II, Venus II Extreme,<br />
Sirius, Andromeda]<br />

What makes <strong>Exped</strong> tents so unique?<br />
b > Strong and weatherproof: bombproof<br />
shelters are created by<br />
<strong>com</strong>bining wind-shedding designs<br />
with strategically placed, dual<br />
guy points on each sleeve. Lines<br />
attach directly to pole structures for<br />
superior stability in any weather.<br />
Enhanced aerodynamics with Flat<br />
or Interior pole sleeve designs.<br />
Totally waterproof shelters with<br />
factory taped seams, polyester<br />
core/cotton wrap thread, and taped<br />
or seamless bathtub floors.<br />

Features<br />
Attention paid to every detail...<br />
c<br />
< d<br />
< e<br />
f ><br />
< a<br />
c > Excellent ventilation: even in rainy<br />
conditions, condensation is kept<br />
to a minimum by large opposed<br />
vents. This design promotes a<br />
chimney draft effect to maintain air<br />
circulation.<br />
No-See-Um panels on the canopy‘s<br />
doors adjust from inside the tent to<br />
control ventilation. Careful attention<br />
to design ensures there is no<br />
contact between fly and canopy.<br />
e > Integrity: Keep it simple and reduce<br />
weight - care is taken to use simple,<br />
proven designs and hardware.<br />
Examples include toggle and loop<br />
connectors and adjustable pole<br />
tension pockets. Of course, field<br />
repairability goes without saying!<br />
f > Natural, pleasing colors: warm<br />
yellow interiors are pleasant and<br />
relaxing, even when stormy weather<br />
keeps you inside the tent.<br />
Earthy, green color rainflies blend<br />
with Nature; or,<br />
Bright, terracotta color rainflies are<br />
easily spotted in bad weather or from<br />
a distance.<br />
d > Loads of space: unique <strong>Exped</strong> designs maximize<br />
usable interior space with steep side walls and<br />
large, protected vestibules. Vestibules provide<br />
ample space for storage and cooking*. Models<br />
with dual vestibules and entrances offer easy<br />
access and eliminate “trauma by kick“ to a<br />
sleeping tent-mate. At least one inner door is large<br />
enough for two people to sit next to one another.<br />
Canopies can be unhooked to increase vestibule<br />
space. Loops and pockets keep the tent tidy.<br />
*If cooking inside the vestibule, always prime and<br />
light stoves at a safe distance from the tent.
Multi-functional and simple use:<br />
- Inner canopies can stay attached to<br />
rainfly at all times;<br />
- Rainfly can be used alone for storage<br />
or for basic shelter;<br />
- Inner canopy can be used alone in<br />
clear weather, with or without a tarp<br />
cover (pole pockets at the corners<br />
enable this configuration).<br />
- Unhook part of the canopy to<br />
increase the space beneath the fly;<br />
- Numerous zipper sliders allow the<br />
door to be opened in many different<br />
positions.<br />
Freestanding and spacious:<br />
Most models are either freestanding<br />
or require just a few stakes*. Such<br />
designs enable <strong>Exped</strong> tents to be<br />
easily moved to a new location or<br />
to be cleaned by shaking overhead.<br />
Developed by <strong>Exped</strong>, the “ridge<br />
tunnel tent“ is a new type of structure<br />
that <strong>com</strong>bines the Tunnel design‘s<br />
maximum usable space with the<br />
Dome‘s freestanding capability.<br />
*With any tent, a few stakes ensure<br />
that a tent is not carried off by the wind.<br />
Easy maintenance:<br />
- Tent poles‘ end caps remove easily<br />
to adjust the shock cord in changing<br />
weather conditions or to replace a<br />
broken pole section.<br />
- Pole tension pockets are made with<br />
strong, but simple materials (webbing<br />
and a small pole section). In the event<br />
of a failure, such materials can be<br />
repaired anyplace and do not depend<br />
upon unreliable plastic parts.<br />
- All <strong>Exped</strong> tents include spare parts:<br />
zipper sliders, adhesive patch fabric,<br />
and emergency pole repair segments.<br />
Easy packing:<br />
- Specific length pole sections allow<br />
the packed tent to fit square into most<br />
large packs, and uniform length pole<br />
sections mean that just one section<br />
can address any situation;<br />
- Long, narrow accessory pockets<br />
occupy small spaces when packed;<br />
- Side entry packsacks surround the<br />
rolled tent without effort or strain.<br />
Quality materials:<br />
- Non-Extreme models‘ rainfly fabric is<br />
strong, lightweight ripstop polyester:<br />
UV-resistant and meets CPAI-84 flame<br />
retardant guidelines. Extra strong PU<br />
coatings on the fabric‘s underside offer<br />
long wearing waterproofness.<br />
Practical packsack. Versatile. Freestanding. Field maintainable.<br />
- Extreme models‘ fly fabric is a strong,<br />
super lightweight, double silicone<br />
coated ripstop nylon: improved UV-<br />
and tear-resistance. However, silicone<br />
coated fabrics do not meet CPAI-84 fire<br />
retardant guidelines. (See tent models<br />
for specifics).<br />
- All Floors are made from durable,<br />
taffeta nylon with heavy PU coatings;<br />
have a waterproof rating of 14+ PSI<br />
(10,000+ mm) water pressure; and are<br />
either factory seam taped or seamless<br />
to maximize strength.<br />
- Mosquito netting is an ultrafine, very<br />
UV-resistant No-See-Um polyester.<br />
- Poles are state-of-the-art extruded,<br />
seamless aircraft DAC 7001-T6<br />
aluminum - very rigid but soft enough<br />
to yield in strong wind. DAC poles<br />
snap back to position without breakage<br />
or damage to the fly. And, DAC poles<br />
are less likely to burr if they do snap<br />
together.<br />
- Reliable YKK zippers in the fly and<br />
canopy are sewn smooth side out to<br />
reduce exposure to dirt, which could<br />
cause premature wear.<br />
- Aircraft aluminum stakes are provided<br />
in two grades: hard, for hard ground;<br />
ultra-lightweight, for soft earth.<br />
- Ample Guy Lines include special,<br />
adjustable tensioners that secure<br />
around most fixed objects without<br />
<strong>com</strong>plicated knots. Key Lines are<br />
provided with <strong>Exped</strong>‘s own, Cord<br />
Stuffsacks (also available separately).<br />
Guy Lines and Zipper Pulls feature<br />
silver colored threads to improve<br />
visibility and help avoid accidents.<br />
Zipper Pulls glow, and are color coded<br />
and reflective for easy handling.<br />
Sheaths and cores can be separated<br />
to increase usable length.<br />
Qualitiy workmanship:<br />
- Lap-felled seams (4 inter-wrapped<br />
fabric layers) are single or double<br />
factory taped. Stress points are<br />
reinforced with extra-duty patches<br />
and are sewn with crossover stitching<br />
to better distribute forces over larger<br />
areas of fabric.<br />
- Thread used throughout is ‘polyester<br />
core, cotton wrap’ that expands when<br />
wet to fill needle holes in edges,<br />
ground reinforcements and silicone<br />
treated fabrics.<br />

< e<br />
> New Zipfree door:<br />
just pull the cord to raise<br />
the door - no zipper to<br />
snag or admit water. Of<br />
course - saves weight!<br />
And without the obvious<br />
entrance, Vela I<br />
offers improved safety<br />
from quick robberies of<br />
opportunity.<br />

> Quick setup: slide<br />
the single, central arch<br />
through its Flat pole<br />
sleeve and seat the<br />
ends into grommets.<br />
Seat the end poles and<br />
pull tight with stakes.<br />
Vela‘s V-shaped guy<br />
line configurations allow<br />
it to be set up almost<br />
anywhere, even on nonlevel<br />
ground.<br />
a > Large vestibule, easily accessed from inside Vela I, is large<br />
enough for all the gear. The door is easily raised to offer a view<br />
but still protect from the elements.<br />
b > Large floor plan is especially long and wide, making it possible to<br />
bring gear inside or to help out a stranded, second person.<br />
c > Ventilation is maximized with this storm proof design. The rainfly<br />
can be rolled up from either end, and both ends of the canopy<br />
have easily accessed, mesh windows.The roof has a hood<br />
protected vent to improve the chimney effect. And the foot end<br />
is aerodynamically shaped to be <strong>com</strong>pletely tied down to face a<br />
high wind.<br />
d > Tie down loops attached to the pole sleeves offer maximum<br />
efficiency.<br />
e > Ingenious, flat pole sleeve improves aerodynamics in wind,<br />
snow and driving rain. Double seams and stitching offer extreme<br />
strength.<br />
f > Setup requires just 1 stake at either end. Additional tie down<br />
loops make Vela I absolutely storm proof!

Calling all enthusiasts... want to travel light? Need fast set up? Demand years of use?<br />
Then Sirius Extreme is the tent for you! Just ask the experts at Backpacker (USA) and<br />
Outdoor Magazin (Germany)!<br />
Sirius+ Sirius Extreme: Fast! Light! Sturdy!<br />
> Sirius Extreme was barely a reality by the time it had received 2 major awards:<br />
Backpacker (USA) bestowed its coveted “Editors‘ Choice 2003“ (first time ever<br />
to a non-US tent <strong>com</strong>pany); and Outdoor Magazin (Germany) where it garnered<br />
highest ranking in its in depth, tunnel tent test!<br />
“The air is definitely<br />
thinner in the ranks for<br />
top of the line tents, but<br />
<strong>Exped</strong>, the ingenious<br />
team from Switzerland,<br />
proves with its Sirius<br />
Extreme that other<br />
brands must take them<br />
seriously!“<br />

“... the first tent we’ve<br />
seen that lets us rave<br />
about its low weight without<br />
including qualifying<br />
<strong>com</strong>ments about its tiny<br />
living space or high price.<br />
At less than 6 pounds,<br />
it belongs in the bantam<br />
weight class for fullfeatured<br />
two-person<br />
shelters - but it’s so<br />
spacious it feels like a<br />
three-person tent.”<br />

> Flat pole sleeve reduces<br />
resistance to wind,<br />
snow and driving rain.<br />
a > Fast and easy setup: <strong>Exped</strong>’s revolutionary flat sleeves are<br />
accessed from outside the fly and end with adjustable tension<br />
pole pockets. And with the canopy already attached, setup goes<br />
quickly: slide poles into the sleeves; seat ends into the pockets;<br />
tension. With just 4 stakes, you‘re ready to call it a night in a few<br />
minutes!<br />
b > Storm proof: Flat pole sleeve technology makes Sirius more<br />
aerodynamic and strengthens the pole sleeve seams. For bad<br />
weather conditions, ample loops and pre-mounted guy lines are<br />
included (stored in Cord Stuffsacks). Double guy line loops grip<br />
the pole sleeves to keep the fly from flapping in bad weather.<br />
c > Large, adjustable door: tucks away into a side pocket; opens to a<br />
variety of positions for ventilation; or, use poles and guy lines for<br />
covered protection. A side wing can also be used as an entrance.<br />
d > Venting and Viewing: windows open <strong>com</strong>pletely from inside<br />
Sirius and are reinforced with mosquito netting to block the<br />
bugs. Windows help to reduce condensation in rain, and simple<br />
supports of pole repair tube keep the windows open at all times.<br />
e > Easy handling all the time: zippers have color coded, reflective,<br />
glow-in-the-dark pulls and are easily operated with one hand.<br />
f > Multi-Use: Canopy is easily unhooked and pushed back for some<br />
extra floor space, or it separates easily for use as a lightweight,<br />
bug shelter. Rainfly offers basic shelter when reduced weight<br />
is needed. And of course used <strong>com</strong>plete... the award winning<br />
design of the Sirius Extreme!

Venus III<br />
lightweight extraordinaire!<br />
> Pitch Venus III<br />
without stakes, then<br />
decide the best location<br />
and move it. Cleaning<br />
is easily ac<strong>com</strong>plished<br />
just by lifting the tent<br />
overhead and shaken<br />
out.<br />
< d<br />
> Adjustable vent<br />
windows above the<br />
entrances provide<br />
constant air circularion,<br />
even with the doors<br />
closed. Vents are<br />
supported by small pole<br />
repair sections.<br />

> Use the canopy by<br />
itself for stargazing on<br />
mild nights. Simply slide<br />
the poles through the<br />
canopy‘s elastic loops<br />
and into the seating<br />
pockets.<br />
a > An incredibly simple tent to pitch: insert 3 poles into color<br />
coded, continuous sleeves; seat into new adjustable, tensioning<br />
pockets; and stake the corners and guy lines. Done in just about<br />
2 minutes!<br />
b > Storm proof: Venus III is virtually free standing, so just a few<br />
stakes are needed. When weather turns nasty, there are ample<br />
loops and pre-mounted guy lines (stored in ingenious Cord<br />
Stuffsacks). Double guy line loops grip the pole sleeves to<br />
prevent flapping of the fly.<br />
c > Easy handling all the time: Zippers have color coded, reflective,<br />
and glow-in-the-dark pulls and are easily operated with one<br />
hand.<br />
d > One inner door is oversized to permit side by side seating for<br />
two. One vestibule has a loft for wet gear.<br />
> For a lighter weight<br />
shelter, pitch the outer<br />
fly without its inner<br />
canopy as an ultra light<br />
shelter, wind protection<br />
during breaks, or as<br />
a large space for bike<br />
repairs.<br />
> Sensible layout:<br />
Two large vestibules<br />
offer personal storage<br />
spaces and are accessed<br />
easily, even while laying<br />
in a sleeping bag. One<br />
vestibule is extra large,<br />
and one door is oversized<br />
for <strong>com</strong>fortable, side by<br />
side seating.

For a small group or family that demands extra room from their tent. But with all its space,<br />
Cassiopeia is surprisingly lightweight, easy to pitch and <strong>com</strong>pletely freestanding. And best<br />
of all, it shrugs off Nature’s worst weather, like that found on the ice fields of Greenland.<br />

Cassiopeia<br />
a castle of space!<br />

without stakes and then<br />
position it for the best<br />
location. The inner tent<br />

pocket, opened in various positions for ventilation, or supported<br />
with poles and guy lines for a protected porch. And if necessary,<br />
one side wing can function as an entrance.<br />
b > Three, super strong poles support one another to form a 100%<br />
freestanding structure. Simply slide the poles into their sleeves,<br />
then seat them into the tension pockets. And that‘s it!<br />
c > Loads of storage space: in addition to the huge vestibule there<br />
are pockets, laundry lines and a zippered loft. Even the roof can<br />
be used to air a sleeping bag or dry clothes.<br />
d > Protective hoods above the entrance and rear vent allow air<br />
circulation in all weather conditions and can be adjusted from<br />
inside Cassiopeia.<br />
e > Easy handling, day or night: Zippers have color coded, reflective,<br />
glow-in-the-dark pulls and are easily operated with one hand.<br />

as basic shelter, a group cover, or even a repair hut.<br />

A perfect tent that performs equally well in an <strong>exped</strong>ition base camp or as a camp refuge<br />
in a family outing.<br />
Big Bear<br />
the dream house.<br />
Big Bear brings <strong>exped</strong>ition design to a family tent execution: hoop structure minimizes fabric and<br />
weight but maximizes space! Uniquely tapered poles, increasing in diameter with height, are<br />
matched to a load balance requirement!<br />
> Easy setup: No<br />

floor space. Stuff them<br />
for use as cushions. Use<br />
the extra space to attach<br />
a second small cabin for<br />

a > Easy to pitch: 3 color coded, hooped poles slide<br />
into matched sleeves; each pole secures into<br />
a tensioning pocket; corners and guy lines are<br />
staked. The inner tents are delivered pre-attached,<br />
which means that‘s it! No separate parts to<br />
negotiate.<br />

e > Tension pole pockets offer easy adjustment to<br />
ensure tautness. Adjustable floor straps allow<br />
pitching on any terrain.<br />

A contradiction of terms: <strong>com</strong>pact and lightweight makes Scout a huge shelter; a simple<br />
design but long on versatility. A clever tensioning cord in a perimeter channel allows easy<br />
setups, and an integrated stuff sack and guyline pocket make packing up a breeze!<br />

m > Fabric edges are overlockstitched<br />
to prevent fraying -<br />
especially important with lightweight<br />
fabrics.<br />
n > Closed baffles: Highest quality<br />
baffle construction prevents down<br />
shift between chambers and<br />
uneven fill distribution, which could<br />
otherwise lead to cold spots.<br />
e<br />
< h<br />
o > Draft tube: zipper<br />
is supported by an<br />
oversized draft tube,<br />
which also divides<br />
the baffle into three<br />
chambers to prevent<br />
down shift.<br />
Connectivity: Left and<br />
right zips connect 2+<br />
bags together, whether<br />
for <strong>com</strong>fort or emergency<br />
warming. YKK #8 left-push<br />
zippers (#5 in center zip<br />
models) connect with most<br />
high quality sleeping bags.<br />
3-D-baffle design:<br />
Horizontal and vertical<br />
baffles prevent down shift<br />
and eliminate cold spots.<br />
Baffles, constructed of fine<br />
tricot mesh, easily stand up<br />
to the strain of washing.<br />
Smart accessories:<br />
sleeping bags include a<br />
storage sack of ultrafine,<br />
No-See-Um netting that<br />
does double duty as<br />
bug protection or as a<br />
laundry bag. Stuff sacks,<br />
when included, fold into<br />
themselves to save space.
Complete sleeping<br />
system: two bags<br />
paired together create<br />
a flexible ‘system‘ that<br />
adapt to a variety of<br />
adventure situations:<br />
consider a down inner<br />
with a synthetic outer<br />
or <strong>com</strong>pact bivy bag.<br />
<strong>Exped</strong> considered<br />
<strong>com</strong>patibility and sizing<br />
when designing its<br />
sleeping bags - some<br />
bags are cut large to<br />
accept a second, inner<br />
bag. And, <strong>Exped</strong>‘s WBseries<br />
bags do it all:<br />
insulation and <strong>com</strong>fort<br />
in a waterproof and<br />
breathable design.<br />
Optimal fit: a <strong>com</strong>plete<br />
range of sleeping<br />
bags to fit most adults,<br />
depending on body<br />
size and sleeping<br />
behaviour. (Remember:<br />
an improperly sized<br />
sleeping bag can be cold<br />
if too large or tight, so try<br />
it for fit before buying).<br />
Complete sleeping system.<br />
Tested materials: <strong>Exped</strong> uses well<br />
tested materials from both lab and field.<br />
Independent labs use internationally<br />
recognized standard tests to evaluate<br />
down fill power and quality, water vapor<br />
transmission, water column, water<br />
repellency, abrasion resistance and<br />
tear resistance. Down tests are offered<br />
by the renowned IDLF (Salt Lake City,<br />
Utah, USA) with each production run.<br />
(Test results available on request).<br />
Field tests are conducted by outdoor<br />
professionals, including Erhard Loretan<br />
(Himalaya <strong>exped</strong>itionist with all 14<br />
8000 m summits), Christof Hagen<br />
(wilderness and survival expert), Serge<br />
Lambert (professional mountain guide<br />
with over 30 years of experience),<br />
and, Martin Epp (mountain guide and<br />
wilderness professional). Of course,<br />
numerous other outdoor experts and<br />
the <strong>Exped</strong> team also contribute.<br />

The waterpoof WB (WaterBloc)<br />
Series: The agony of choice is over:<br />
Down or Synthetic filled sleeping bags?<br />
Historically, goose down filled bags<br />
offered higher quality and features,<br />
but synthetics performed better in wet<br />
conditions.<br />
But now, at least this dilemma is<br />
history, because <strong>Exped</strong> has delivered<br />
a unique, waterproof and breathable,<br />
goose down fill collection of sleeping<br />
bags: Ibis WB, Woodpecker WB, Swan<br />
WB, and Arctic Goose WB!<br />
<strong>Exped</strong> solved this problem by replacing<br />
sewn seams with high-frequency<br />
welded seams. Thousands of needle<br />
holes that allowed water to reach the<br />
goose down and rendered the bag<br />
useless, are now gone! Warm air is<br />
stopped from being pushed out during<br />
sleep. And seams are double welded<br />
for added strength and durability.<br />
The WBs are both waterproof and<br />
vapor permeable. Even in the worst<br />
weather conditons, there are no<br />
problems with condensation due to<br />
vapor emitted by the body.<br />
Tuck-stitch design.<br />
But don‘t take our word for it! What<br />
do the pros think? Highly respected,<br />
outdoor experts were eager to test a<br />
“WB“ bag, and all were quickly sold!<br />
Christof Hagen, founder of Survival-<br />
Outdoor-School SOS, offers:<br />
“Especially for my Igloo courses,<br />
where melt water and condensation<br />
are totally normal, I always used<br />
synthetic filled bags. The Swan WB<br />
made me change my habits.“<br />
Stephan Sigrist, extreme mountain<br />
climber and UIAA Mountain Guide,<br />
states “The WB [sleeping bag] was a<br />
super 1AA++ choice for me, even in<br />
cold and humid Patagonia. A bivy bag<br />
was unnecessary.“<br />
Warranty and Repair Service: Every<br />
<strong>Exped</strong> sleeping bag carries a 5 year,<br />
limited warranty. Products with defects<br />
in materials and workmanship will be<br />

Ultra-lightweights that are maxed to the minimum - weight, that is. Complete shell and<br />

<strong>Mats</strong> & <strong>Bivybags</strong>
Never underestimate the sleeping mat;<br />
in fact, some consider it more important<br />
than the sleeping bag!<br />
<strong>Exped</strong> sleeping pads lull you into a sleeper‘s paradise. With seven, remarkably<br />
<strong>com</strong>fortable collections, the difficult issue is deciding which pad to leave behind!<br />
Consider the overview; then decide.<br />
To properly insulate against cold<br />
ground, a pad should not only provide<br />
insulation but also fully support the<br />
body. Consider the following: a mat‘s<br />
R-value (lab test); a sleeping bag‘s<br />
temperature rating; your sleeping<br />
habits; and, your current set up! <strong>Exped</strong><br />
pads are polyurethane laminated<br />
(an airtight film instead of a simple,<br />
lightweight coating) and high frequency<br />
welded. Fabrics are highly abrasion<br />
resistant, and <strong>com</strong>fortable, textured<br />
surfaces prevent slipping but still permit<br />
normal turning during the night. Dark<br />
colors dry quickly, and storage sacks,<br />
included with most pads,<br />
are sized for easy stuffing.<br />

<strong>Exped</strong> Downmats: super <strong>com</strong>fortable and three times warmer than other mats of<br />
<strong>com</strong>parable weight. And because goose down <strong>com</strong>presses so well, Downmats also pack<br />
small. The unique pump-packsack doubles as both bellows-pump and pillow.<br />
a ><br />
c ><br />
a ><br />
Downmats*<br />
3 times the warmth & <strong>com</strong>fort, with less bulk!<br />
> Heat loss is dramatically reduced with goose down insulation. Both EMPA, the Swiss<br />
government‘s material test and research laboratory, and private <strong>exped</strong>itions assisted to provide<br />
tests for the Downmats. A thick cushion of air provides <strong>com</strong>fort and smooths out uneven ground.<br />
And down <strong>com</strong>presses well, so that Downmats pack smaller than other pads.<br />
> Unique Pump-Packsack:<br />
just connect the<br />
valves and simple, safe<br />
inflation is in the bag!<br />
Although individual <strong>com</strong>fort<br />
varies, Downmats<br />
require just a few<br />
minutes of pumping.<br />
The inflation process<br />
is assisted by goose<br />
b<br />
><br />
down‘s tendency to<br />
expand (once in camp,<br />
just lay out Downmat<br />
with valves open). Using<br />
the packsack prevents<br />
humidity in breath from<br />
reaching the down,<br />
which otherwise could<br />
cause the goose down to<br />
clump or freeze.<br />
The pump sack is lined<br />
with foam to speed the<br />
inflation process and to<br />
make a great pillow!<br />

> Down Air Mattress won <strong>Exped</strong> the<br />
2002/3 European Outdoor Award,<br />
Europe‘s most prestigious outdoor<br />
award. Presented by Europe‘s leading<br />
outdoor magazines, there is just one<br />
winner each year. Besides the obvious<br />
warmth, this award was presented to<br />
<strong>Exped</strong> in recognition of the Downmat‘s<br />
superb performance and overall value.<br />
a > Two valves ensure fast, initial inflation and easy,<br />
quick deflation.<br />
b > Similar to a sleeping bag, baffles between the<br />
mats‘ chambers eliminate cold spots and promote<br />
a stable and supportive air cushion.<br />
c > Light foam helps to contain the goose down and<br />
prevents migration between chambers.<br />
d > Fabric surfaces are made from laminated<br />
polyester fabric that is textured to be slip proof and<br />
airtight. High frequency welded seams and valves<br />
offer the strongest, most secure method of fusing<br />
fabrics and materials. Neutral colors dry quickly.<br />
> Small loops help to secure the packsack to the<br />
mat when it is used as a pillow.<br />
> Light and warm: According to EMPA‘s test<br />
(SOP00749) the 9 cm Downmats offer a heat<br />
resistance value of 1.6. At about the same weight,<br />
a standard 2.5 cm self inflating mat offers a value of<br />
0.5, or, just 1/3 that of the Downmat! Further EMPA<br />
tests demonstrated that regular mats lose 3x more<br />
heat to cold ground than to the air. The lesson: with<br />
a Downmat, use a lighter weight sleeping bag and<br />
increase warmth while reducing overall weight.<br />
> <strong>Exped</strong> uses only certified, 700 in 3 /oz goose down,<br />
treated with Nocar to eliminate the effects of<br />
humidity that may reach the mats‘ interiors.

SIM Light all the gain without the pain!<br />
<strong>Exped</strong> self inflating mats demonstrate thoroughly thoughtful design and quality:<br />
> <strong>Exped</strong> mats inflate quickly with wide air<br />
channels and valves. Deflation is simplified<br />
on 5+ cm styles with dual valves.<br />
> Textured polyester fabric is very abrasion-<br />
and UV-resistant, and is slip proof.<br />
> Only CFK*-free, high grade open cell<br />
polyurethane foam.<br />
> High frequency welded seams add strength.<br />
> Careful attention is given to the lamination<br />
process of foam to fabric. Delamination, the<br />
most <strong>com</strong>mon defect in other self inflating<br />
mats, is greatly diminished in <strong>Exped</strong> mats.<br />
> Dark colors dry rapidly.<br />
> Valves are welded in place for strength.<br />
Positions on the end, rather than corners,<br />
are less prone to damage. High quality<br />
delrin plastic reduces weight and never<br />
feels cold.<br />

> Question: What do a jungle, steep slope, forest and a tropical<br />
island have in <strong>com</strong>mon? Answer: All are perfect places for <strong>Exped</strong><br />
Scout Hammocks. Use Bivy-Poncho or a tarp for minimalist rain<br />
protection. Or to <strong>com</strong>bat biting insects, add <strong>Exped</strong> Mosquito Net.<br />
Who doesn‘t need protection from Nature‘s most annoying and unwanted visitors -<br />
mosquitoes and other small pests?<br />

b > Strong cords on both ends are<br />
sewn with a specific technique<br />
designed for durability. Scout DLX‘s<br />
cords adjust to suit the needs of<br />
almost any situation. The result: lay<br />

DLX employs a special drawcord<br />
that converts the hammock to a<br />
swinging chair.<br />

create a supported hammock rather<br />

animals are interesting to watch...<br />
from a distance. But when they<br />
begin to do the watching, then<br />
Mosquito Net be<strong>com</strong>es a very<br />
handy accessory!<br />

without the reflection that<br />
ac<strong>com</strong>panies bright colors.<br />
> Tapered, banana shape ensures a<br />
safe distance from the hammock on<br />
all sides to thwart biting insects.<br />

in hanging the hammock. The rope<br />
ends slide through special slits and<br />
fasten with a knot.<br />
