The Therm-a-Rest LuxuryLite Cot Bug Shelter and Sun Shield won the top spot in the “Tents and Awnings” category. First determined as finalists in the category, both accessories were named a winner by a panel of outdoor industry experts after careful assessment.
The flagship LuxuryLite Cot
Bug Shelter fits snugly atop all LuxuryLite cots to keep mosquitos,
spiders, and other uninvited guests at bay. The bug-stopping mesh
retains high-clarity visibility and ventilation while the easy-to-set-up
unified hub and pole system erects 140 cm high for a tent-like sleep
experience. The LuxuryLite Cot Sun Shield plays double duty: the
reflective, heat-blocking ThermaCapture™ coating repels the sun’s rays
while the tarp’s taped seams provide light weather protection on rainy
nights.
“Our customers have written
us to say that Therm-a-Rest cots are as comfortable as their beds at
home,” said Doug Jacot, vice president of Therm-a-Rest. “We wanted to
take their sleep experience to the next-level with accessories that add
even more value, versatility, and breathability to our cot collection.”
The esteemed panel of judges for the 2014 Outdoor Trade Show Novel Awards included: Andrew Denton, Chief Executive of the Outdoor Industries Association; Ben Winnard, South West Regional Manager of Cotswold Outdoor; Bryn Davies, Gear Editor of Adventure Travel; John Manning, Editor of Lakeland Walker; Phoebe Smith, Editor of Wanderlust; Simon Ingram, Editor of Trail; Steve Jenkinson the National Sales Manager of Go Outdoors; and Tom Richardson, Editor of Outdoor Review and Gear Editor of Climb. A total of eight products received an award, selected from a list of 22 finalists.
Also new for 2015 in the
“cot” collection accessories range, is the Cot Pillow Keeper which keeps
renegade pillows in place. Built with soft, brushed polyester, the Cot
Pillow Keeper features adjustable straps to fit all of the LuxuryLite
cot widths and the unique design keeps pillows from migrating throughout
the night. Store headlamps and reading materials in the two underside
pockets for easy access.
Therm-a-Rest’s new cot
accessories line debuted at the European Outdoor Trade Fair in July 2014
and will be available in stores starting January 2015.
Therm-a-Rest Cots are made in Ireland of US and Imported Materials.
