I have both the WallyWorld yoga mat and the blue CCF mat. Seems to me that the yoga mat is more than 25 inches wide; definitely wider that the blue CCF mat.


I've used the yoga mat with no problems; but the weight and bulk was one reason I switched to down U/Q's.

I have looked at those also. They seem (I have not weighed them) heavier than the old blue ccf pads. They do feel more flexible though.

I haven't seen the yoga mats at Wallyworld but my yoga mat is made to be grippier so that my feet don't slip when I am doing yoga poses.


This might be a good thing for hammocking as they might be less apt to slid out from under you while you sleep? They also make thicker yoga pads but I would think they could get bulky.

This is what I use. They are fine if you have a decent sleeping pad. As always have warm socks and warm head wear! You will be fine and.......not so heavy!

I've seen others mention that about stuff in the pockets providing some insulation. I'm a warm sleeper as well. That yoga may might be enough... Thanks

I see you have a Clark. If your Clark has the under pockets you probably will not need a pad for most summer weather.

I have not seen these but they seem a little narrow for my body. I think they could work with a second one taped together to make it wider. The pads tend to roll out from under you during the night.

Hi guys - a new hanger here. My family got me a Clark NX-150 for Christmas. Set it up a couple times, can't wait to use this spring. I'm still researching pads. I've been considering a CCF or my thermarest. Poking around Wallyworld the other day, saw these yoga mats. 25x68 inches, thinner and a different material that the standard blue CCF pad. Do any of you have experience with these pads?
