This is a basecamp setup: the camp you drive or haul into, whether that's a wall tent, a truck bed, a rooftop tent or a hunting cabin. If you're heading deeper into the backcountry with a spike camp on your back, pack light and let basecamp be where the comfort lives. A couple pieces, like the Seat Cushion and the HEST x BHA Camp Pillow, are easy to bring along either way.
When temperatures drop after sunset, your sleep setup matters.
The HEST Foamy brings the comfort and support of a real mattress to the outdoors. With 3.9 inches of temperature-resilient memory foam, no pump and a 30-second setup, you just unroll it and you're done. Roll it out in a wall tent, truck bed, rooftop tent or hunting cabin and you've got a legit bed to come back to after a long day in the field. And when hunting season gets cold, the foam inside matters.
Traditional memory foam can become increasingly firm in temperatures below 40°F. HEST uses temperature-resilient enhanced memory foam designed to retain its shape, comfort and performance even when the temperature drops. That means frosty mornings and freezing nights won’t leave you sleeping on a mattress that feels like a brick.
It’s one less thing to think about at the end of a long day and one very good reason to look forward to getting back to camp.
For a more comfortable hunting basecamp, our setup includes:
HEST Foamy: A portable camping mattress with 3.9 inches of temperature-resilient enhanced memory foam that sets up in 30 seconds with no pump and stays comfortable even when temperatures drop. Roll it out in a wall tent, truck bed, rooftop tent or hunting cabin.
Foamy Camp Chair: A cushioned, supportive camp chair for eating, relaxing and hanging around basecamp.
HEST Seat Cushion: Portable cushioning for glassing, scouting, long drives, tailgates and wherever else you find yourself taking a seat.
HEST Down Comforter: Warm, comfortable camp bedding for crawling into at night or wrapping around yourself when things get chilly.
HEST Fleece Duvet: A soft, cozy layer for adding even more warmth to your cold-weather sleep setup.
HEST X BHA Camp Pillow: A packable camping pillow that brings the support and feel of a real pillow to hunting camp. Together, it’s a setup designed to help you rest, recover and get ready to do it all again tomorrow.
For a vehicle-supported hunting basecamp, a memory foam mattress like the HEST Foamy is one of the most comfortable options. It needs no pump or inflation, cannot deflate overnight, and uses temperature-resilient enhanced memory foam that stays comfortable when nights drop below freezing. At 3.9 inches thick, it works in a wall tent, truck bed, rooftop tent or hunting cabin.
Traditional memory foam can become noticeably firmer below about 40°F, which is why some foam pads feel like a brick on a frosty morning. HEST uses temperature-resilient enhanced memory foam designed to hold its shape, comfort and support in cold temperatures, so the Foamy stays comfortable through cold hunting season nights.
Foam is generally the better choice for cold hunting camps. Air mattresses lose pressure as temperatures drop, can puncture on rocky ground, and the air inside can pull warmth away from your body. The HEST Foamy sets up in about 30 seconds with no pump, never deflates, and puts a solid layer of foam between you and the cold ground.
Start with an insulated mattress that keeps you off the cold ground, like the HEST Foamy. The HEST Down Comforter uses 650-fill hydrophobic duck down and is rated for 40°F and above, giving you the feel of your bed at home without a restrictive sleeping bag. Add the HEST Fleece Duvet for an extra layer of warmth. On nights well below freezing, layer the Comforter over a cold-rated sleeping bag or add more insulation. Changing into dry base layers before bed also makes a big difference.
Yes. The Foamy rolls out on a tent floor, truck bed, rooftop tent platform or cabin bunk. For truck beds, the HEST Dually is sized to specific beds, such as the Dually Long for a Toyota Tacoma long bed. Find your fit at hest.com/pages/sizing-guide.
HEST gear is built for vehicle-supported basecamps where you can drive or haul gear in. The Foamy mattress and Foamy Camp Chair are not designed as ultralight backpacking gear. The HEST Seat Cushion and HEST x BHA Camp Pillow are the most packable pieces for time away from the truck.
The HEST Seat Cushion is a portable cushion that keeps you off cold, hard ground while glassing a hillside, sitting in a tree stand or duck blind, or posting up for hours. Back at camp, it works on the tailgate, around the fire or on the truck seat during long drives.
The HEST x BHA Camp Pillow is a packable camp pillow made in collaboration with Backcountry Hunters & Anglers, a nonprofit dedicated to protecting public lands, waters and wildlife. It packs down for travel and expands into a supportive pillow at camp. A portion of every HEST x BHA Camp Pillow sold supports BHA.
Our hunting basecamp setup includes the HEST Foamy mattress, the Foamy Camp Chair with two layers of enhanced memory foam on a 500 lb capacity aluminum frame, the HEST Seat Cushion, the HEST Down Comforter, the HEST Fleece Duvet and the HEST x BHA Camp Pillow. Together they cover sleep, warmth, seating in camp and seating in the field.
HEST offers free returns and a 100-day money back guarantee, so you can test your setup through a full hunting season.
