The Lowdow

Madru are a UK startup aiming to help campers, travelers, and festival goers to sleep easy in style with the world’s best sleeping mask, the Madru Sleeping Block.

One of the things I like least about camping is being woken up early. I wear noise cancelling ear plugs for just this reason, but have never found a solution for dealing with sunlight flooding into my tent early in the morning.

I often awaken at dawn as it starts to get light, and end up trying to drop off again – I’m not a huge fan of early mornings and often use camping as an opportunity to have a bit of a rare lie in, so getting up at dawn isn’t normally top of my camping agenda!

Our Verdict

I’ve tried regular eye masks before, but don’t like the way they press down on my eyes and often across the bridge of my nose, so I usually resort to sleeping with an old t-shirt draped over my head. Not the best solution it must be said, as i’m a bit of a fidget, so the t-shirt invariably slips off my face and i’m awake with the birds as a result, with a grump on.

The Madru Sleeping Block Mask is a clever solution to the problems posed by a traditional eye mask. Made in the UK, the mask has a clever design which features contoured foam around the edges, that effectively raises the mask away from the eyes. The foam is extremely light, making this a very comfortable mask to wear.

There is a thick, lightly elasticated band with a velcro fastening at the rear, which allows for a secure, adjustable fit and the mask is comfortable to wear all night, without feeling at all claustrophobic.

I think the Madru Sleeping Block Mask is clever a solution for campers, and is the most comfortable sleeping mask that i’ve used.
