Standard bedding or sleeping bags in RTT

Does anyone make fitted sheets for RTTs? Idea of loose fitting sheets would drive me crazy, on the other hand we didn't like using sleeping bags this year (new to the RTT thing)

Also need a better mattress or something. The 2" one that came with it is horrible
Depends on the size of your mattress. If its a hardshell they are usually normal sized sheets, if it's a soft shell like ARB/Tepui/CVT you can get sheets that fit from Tepui.

Thermarest RidgeRest SoLite bottom layer for extra floor insulation and high density padding, 3" James Baroud mattress with water resistant cover makes it plush, 2 Snow Peak Ofuton LX sleeping bags zipped together for temperature control. The Ofuton can be fully zipped up or fully unzipped making it like a comforter and a few more features.

Thanks guys for the replies, it's 53x90 mattress Smittybilt.
Looks like a "standard full" is 54x74

Would it be a bad idea to ditch the mattress and get a 3" memory foam topper for a full size bed along with sheets?

Use the extra "16 at the foot of bed to put clothes etc?

Would it still fold shut if mattress doesn't fill entire floor?



Thanks for the links to sheets and straps

I like that idea. Might fold funny though.

I'm thinking leave the factory 2" mattress put the 2-3" memory foam on top w standard sheets blankets then when it folds the pillows would fill the void between the two on that end? Just need to measure if the 3" topper will fit

"yeah it was too soft under me last night".

Man I tough I was alone with my girl friend that morning when we woke up in her autohome tent. I guess you were not far, cause you are quoting my exact words!

That matress was so soft, that I was basically sleeping on the fiberglass floor.

But seriously, soft matress to me are worst than to hard matress. I will sleep on a hard wood floor before sleeping in a pillow matress.

RTT mattress with a 2 inch pad. Teton Mammoth 0 degree double sleeping bag. I also always have a couple of woobies. If its hot I sleep on top of the bag with a woobie.
