Thermarest Lite Seat – Past Season

Jump to: Our Verdict / Features / Specifications

Thermarest’s Lite Seat is a comfortable and compact, self inflating seat that is light enough to take with you just about anywhere!

Thermarest says

Updated: Wherever the trail takes you, the Lite Seat has your backside.

Like a miniature ProLite™ mattress, the Lite Seat is the ideal companion for fast and light journeys or anywhere space is at a premium. It rolls up small enough to carry in your pocket and can also be carried inflated, inside of ultralight, frameless daypacks for added support, comfort and versatility on your next adventure. An integrated bungee loop keeps your seat rolled up tight.

Our Verdict

Therm-a-Rest’s Lite Seat is a comfy seat you can carry wherever you go. It inflates in seconds and has a handy bungee loop to keep it packed nice and small.

At just over 130g it might not appeal to super ultralight Backpackers as they might prefer to just sit on the floor – but if you`re trekking between huts then you can afford to carry this bit of luxury! Also works as a cushion on those hard wooden benches that are the staple fare of Alpine Huts.
