I’m deciding between the XLite MAX Regular/Wide and the Nemo Tensor All Season Regular/Wide and the actual weights seem somewhat mysterious. I bet other people will be researching this for both pads so:

what are your pads actual weights?

EDIT: The % vs. spec is the relative change calculated compared to the info websites of Thermarest and Nemo on the 09.08.2025 like in the table below. The Avg. % deviation is the mean of the “% vs. spec” column for each pad.

Pad Weight Weight Packed Avg. % Deviation (just pad)

Thermarest NXT Regular Wide 450 g / 15,87 oz - 4.1%
Thermarest NXT Regular Short 330 g / 11.64 oz - 0.3%
