During the end of Fall, the whole Winter season, and even during the first weeks of Spring, you’ll probably find yourself dealing with a lot more cold and chilly weather rather than enjoying a nice sunny day outside. Now, in order to keep yourself warm during those cold days, you’ll obviously want to wear warm clothing. Still, whenever those days get really cold and warm clothing isn’t enough, one of the best things that you can cover / wrap yourself with is with a puffy blanket. Basically, puffy blankets are designed to be extremely insulating, meaning that they form a temperature barrier between your body and the cold air surrounding you, thus preventing that cold air from quickly carrying away your body heat. With that said, if you’re looking for a way to keep yourself nice and toasty throughout the colder days, then the Rumpl Original Puffy Blanket is the perfect thing for the job.
The Rumpl Original Puffy Blanket is a portable all-season outdoors puffy blanket that features a Synthetic Insulation made of 100% recycled plastic materials that’s stuffed into an ultra-durable Ripstop Shell that’s both water-resistant and stain-resistant.
Not only that, but this sleek, cozy, and ultra-durable outdoors puffy blanket also comes equipped with Paracord Corner Loops for sticking it into the ground or to integrate it with a hammock as an underquilt, as well as with a sturdy Cape Clip that allows you to wear this blanket completely hands-free.
Now, let’s have a more detailed look at the Rumpl Original Puffy Blanket and check out everything that makes this all-season outdoors puffy blanket so special.
DESIGN
Starting with the blanket’s size, our review unit of the Rumpl Original Puffy Blanket is the 1-Person sizing model, which measures just 7 inches in diameter by 16 inches tall when packed into a roll, thus making it super portable and easy to carry around with you wherever you’re planning to go.
In addition to its portability, this outdoors puffy blanket is also extremely lightweight, as it only weighs a measly 2.1 lbs. Moreover, this puffy blanket also comes together with a durable Water-Resistant Stuff Sack that can be used for its storage.
Nevertheless, when unfolded and opened flat into a smooth surface, this puffy blanket can offer you a nice resting area that measures 52 inches wide by 75 inches long, which is more than enough for 2 adults or 3~4 kids to lay down on and relax.
Now, when it comes to its design, for our review unit of the Rumpl Original Puffy Blanket, we’ve gone with the Yellowstone Print model, which features a gorgeous, cheerful, and super-colorful print of the renowned Yellowstone National Park, which was in fact America’s first National Park in history.
This unique print features vivid colors that perfectly recreate the environment of the Yellowstone Park, with the blanket’s print portraying the park’s relaxing aqua hot springs as well as its gushing geysers of hot water and steam, with a beautiful green-pastures background and a smooth light blue sky.
Furthermore, at the top-right corner of the blanket’s upper-side, we also have a Yellowstone Noso Repair Patch, which qualifies this unique version of the Rumpl Original Puffy Blanket has a directly supporting-product for the National Park Foundation.
(Know that you can also purchase additional patches separately if you’re looking to show your love for Yellowstone).
Moving on to the blanket’s construction. Firstly, it’s worth noting that this all-season outdoors puffy blanket is made from the same premium materials you’d find in your typical sleeping bags and insulated jackets that you’d take with you for pretty much any outdoors adventure in cold weather conditions. This means that this outdoors puffy blanket is as warm and as durable as any other piece of outdoors gear / clothing.
So, when it comes to the blanket’s synthetic insulation, its insulation filling consists of a 3D Hollow-Fiber Siliconized Synthetic Insulation material that’s made of 100% post-consumer recycled plastic materials, and this insulation filling material is rated to be a 240 gsm medium-weight fabric material.
Then, for the blanket’s outer shell, the Rumpl Original Puffy Blanket features an ultra-durable Ripstop Shell that consists of a 30D Ripstop Polyester Fabric, which is also made of 100% post-consumer recycled plastic materials (such as plastic bottles, which are firstly broken down into small plastic pellets, and then melted to create the polyester thread that’s used to manufacture the blanket’s Ripstop Shell).
On top of that, the blanket’s Ripstop Polyester Shell is also treated with a special 90/10 DWR Coating finish that makes the blanket’s exterior-side capable of repelling water, debris, and stains, thus making this puffy blanket both water-resistant and stain-resistant.
Still, if you somehow manage to get it dirty, you’ll be happy to know that the Rumpl Original Puffy Blanket is also machine washable. Thanks to that, you can use it at your backyard, at the beach, or even while camping without having to worry about getting some dirt and/or dust smudges on it. So, if that ever happens, you can simply toss it into your washing machine with the guarantee that any smudges or stains will certainly come of!
In addition to its ultra-durable and super-insulating construction, this outdoors puffy blanket also comes equipped with Paracord Corner Loops, which make it easy for you to stick it into the ground in case you want to use it as a picnic blanket for laying down on it, relaxing with family and friends, and enjoying the outdoors together.
Moreover, the blanket’s Paracord Corner Loops can also be used to integrate it with a hammock as an underquilt.
Last but not least, the Rumpl Original Puffy Blanket also comes equipped with a small, but still fairly sturdy Cape Clip that ultimately allows you to wear this blanket as a cape in a completely hands-free fashion.
Thanks to that, you can wear it over your shoulders and back without having to grasp it, which is a great functionality to have for whenever you’re sitting at a campfire and trying to drink a nice cup of coffee or trying to enjoy a cold beer without worrying about having the blanket fall off your back.
