Does anyone know a make of sleeping mat that is 3/4 length but full width?

I currently use an alpkit airic, which is fine but a tad too heavy. I have tried a thermarest 3/4 but found it too narrow,  all other manufacturers seem to be around the same dimensions, so just wondered if anyone had seen one that matches these requirements?

(some of the more observant among you may have noticed with recent posts that I am trying to lighten my load)

Thermarest have always done loads of 3/4 length models...

I'm a fan of Monntbell pads, and they come in various lengths. Unfortunately, the exchange rate isn't very good at the moment.

What do you mean by 'full width' MSP?

I'm guessing you mean 25" like the airic?

The deluxe ridgerest is 25" wide and easy to cut to whatever length you like.

A large neo air is also 25" wide and there's a youtube video demonstrating how to cut it to the length you need and use an iron to reseal it - if you're feeling brave! .......though as it only weighs 500gm you might not want to worry.

What about the Multimat Adventure 25 Superlight in 3/4 length?

See Here

510mm seems to be the standard width for non-tapered mats.

Yep 25" (64cm) is the width I am after, I am built somewhat broader than the average man, and find I just can't get on witha 50cm wide mat.

The neoair does look to be the solution, but bye eck they are expensive.
