Thickness :
A thicker mattress improves comfort but can weigh more, especially in the self-inflating version.
Insulation index – R-Value :
The higher this value, the better the insulation against the cold of the ground – essential for nights at altitude or outside heated shelters.
Shape :
Rectangular or sarcophagus-shaped mattresses: the choice is yours depending on your sleeping habits and your need for lightness.

As with the sleeping bag, the weight of the mattress is crucial for those who walk for several days in a row.
