Excellent piece of kit enhances padding in several Savotta packs, even kept a friend dry from a quick downpour of rain when he forgot his hat. A great addition to any hiking military or travel.

Honestly, I took advantage of a price drop to finally decide to buy this accessory. But I wasn’t expecting pads that firm for so little thickness, and in the end it’s more than just a simple accessory, given the overall quality and practicality of the product. In the end, why am I surprised? It’s Savotta!

The Savotta Sitting Pad is an extremely simple, yet very practical addition to your gear, which you will quickly appreciate when resting on the trail. Thanks to it, you no longer have to sit on cold or damp ground, snow, or hard roots. The pad provides excellent insulation from cold and moisture, ensuring comfort and protecting you from getting chilled while cooking, relaxing, or observing your surroundings. It is very lightweight, so you won’t notice its presence in your backpack. The durable, dense foam means it doesn’t tear or deform easily, unlike cheap mats from supermarkets. You can easily store it inside your backpack, attach it to your pack panel, or fasten it outside with straps. It’s a small, inconspicuous item that significantly increases the comfort of any trip. An absolutely essential gadget for every rucksack!

First time I've bought a product from Savotta and I have to say the quality is there. The mat feels very sturdy and has a large seating area. However, it will be too big to take in your everyday backpack. I recommend this product!

Fits perfectly inside my Kantamus 40L as a replacement for the foam back-rest, making it a lightweight and very useful upgrade. As expected, the craftsmanship is classic Savotta—rugged and well made. It also fits width-wise in the Hatka day pack, although it sticks out of the pocket by about two inches, which is still totally workable in practice.
