Thermarest Prolite 3 in Coyote/Foliage ITEM:      Military Prolite 3 sleeping mat in coyote/foliage MANUFACTURER:      Thermarest DESCRIPTION:      A lightweight, self inflating sleeping mat designed for a paramilitary end-user. REVIEW NOTES: Prolite 3 mat kindly provided by Crossfire and Military Gear. Despite acting as something of an agent for Crossfire, I have received no financial compensation for this review. Like any previous review with supplied equipment, I have conducted the review with the proviso that I will be painfully honest in my assessment of this item. The mat will be returned to Crossfire on the completion of the review.   DIMENSIONS: Length – 1828mm (72in) Width – 508mm (20in) Thickness – 25mm (1in) Weight – 730g (1lb 8oz)   LAYOUT/MATERIALS: This Prolite is a full length self inflating sleeping mat that is a sandwich of nylon over a star punched urethane foam. The external surfaces of the military model Prolite are coyote tan and foliage green (which I actually think is more grey than anything else). This matte, dull colouration is intended for those end-users who go to great lengths to ensure all personal equipment makes as little to no noise as possible, and no bright flashes of colour to give away one’s position. The star cut foam allows the mat to be compressed more than a fully filled mattress, as well as reduce weight by 20% compared to a normal mat. The outer skins are nylon based. The upper surface is a coyote (brown) which would blend nicely with most ground surfaces I’ve slept on, such as bulldust, grass and jungle floor. The lower surface is a similar material to the upper surface, being slightly slippery. Colour is “foliage” which looks grey to me. It certainly won’t show stains that are inherent in a rough field environment.
