The Best Puffy Blanket

Wait 5 sec.

If you plan to spend hours outside, whether at a campsite or an outdoor concert, an extra layer can help keep you comfortable and enjoying the moment.Enter the puffy blanket: This modern camping blanket combines the packability and lightness of a puffer jacket with the versatility of a household throw. It’s easy to carry, water-resistant, and — especially compared with traditional heavy wool camp blankets — a breeze to maintain and clean. Its flexibility makes it a great addition to any household kit.To find the best puffy blanket, I subjected 16 blankets to muddy dogs, wet lawns, and multiple field trips to campsites and parks. I also conducted a series of packing, sleep, and spill tests. In the end, the Rumpl Original Puffy Blanket emerged as the best puffy blanket for most people.
