Our Verdict

Rab’s Hypersphere 7.5 Sleeping Mat is a standout choice for fast-moving adventures in harsh, cold environments. Weighing just 765 grams with an impressive R-value of 7.3, it delivers exceptional insulation for winter alpine climbs and arctic expeditions without adding unnecessary bulk.

With a generous 8cm thickness, it offers excellent cushioning, while oversized outer chambers help keep you centred through the night—minimising the risk of rolling off uneven ground. The 800-fill power goose down traps heat efficiently, reducing convection currents and maximising warmth. Inflation is quick and effortless thanks to Rab’s included pump sack, making setup a breeze after a long day on the move.

For those prioritising warmth, weight, and packability, the Hypersphere 7.5 is a reliable companion for demanding conditions.

ASTM R-Value:

From 2020, there is a new industry standard for measuring the R-value (level of insulation) of sleeping mats – ASTM F3340-18. This new standard is the sleeping mat equivalent to the EN rating for sleeping bags.

You can now directly compare the R-value of mats rated using the ASTM F3340-18 with confidence that is a fair and accurate comparison between mats. In simple terms, the higher the R-value, the warmer the mat.

In general terms, an R-value below 2.0 is for summer use, 2.0 to 4.0 is for cooler 3 season use and 4.0+ is for winter temperatures. This will be also be dependent on your sleeping bag, how cold you sleep etc. Please contact our customer service team if you need advice on choosing the right mat for your activity.
