Spot on guys - my only “problem” is forgetting to keep the valve at the head end - otherwise my feet tend to undo the valve in my sleep!

I have a Wee Airic, and think it is fantastic, beats any other sleeping mat or airbed that I have ever used.

I, well the missus, has the normally sized airic. V good compaired with my thermarest, no comparison at all when it comes to the price, could be a bit lighter tho. Mind you, she’s carrying it not me!

Any chance of making a Wee Airic which is cut to sleeping bag shape? I have a mummy shaped bivi bag and would like a 3/4 mummy shaped Airic to go into it along with my AlpineDream…

Thanks

We have been looking at ways of having both the sleeping bag and mat as a combined unit. As are quite a few other companies.
I dont think we are likely to make a more fitted mat as most people would prefer the larger mat.
However you could always cut a Karrimat/Multimat to shape to see how you get on with the idea.

I’m agreeing with Robert Smith on this one . Big rectangular thermarests don’t fit in my bivibag.

Just back from the KIMM in the Eastern Lakes. My Wee Airic did the job, but why not supply it in a stuff sac that is half width, like Thermarest? It makes it a lot easier to pack in a small rucsac.

Would you consider adding a ‘Skinny Airic’ to the range, ie a 180 x 64 x 2.5cm mat. If you do, I’ll buy one. How’s that? Oh, and keep up the brilliant work!

A tapered mat to fit bivvi bags seems a good idea with ready market.

I use a full length thermarest and have always thought it would have been better with separate top ‘n bottom aircells to stop all the air under your bum being squeezed to the lighter leg end. A puncture wouldn’t be a total disaster either. I suppose a tapered mat would also help with “bum induced coldspot” but you’d want to keep your legs on top of the slimmer tail somehow.
