10 Must Have Blanket Features for the Summer

1. Oversized! You need plenty of room to comfortably fit a couple of friends or family members on a cozy blanket. Whether you are having a picnic at the park or catching some rays at the beach, you need an oversized blanket to help you make that happen!

2. A fast drying, moisture wicking blanket sounds perfect for the summertime! Grab a Peaceful Touch blanket for your next boating trip, you won’t regret it.

3. Not only do you want a fast-drying blanket for boating, but it also must be warm for those cool windy nights. Luckily, our fleece blankets provide you with light-weight warmth.

4. What good is a summer blanket if it's covered in pill balls and if it sheds all over your car seats or clothing? Look for a non-shedding anti-pill fleece fabric to keep you covered in summer.

5. All blankets must be soft, especially summer blankets. If you’re using a blanket at the beach, you want it to feel soft on your bare skin. Our oversized fleece blankets are super soft and won’t be abrasive on your skin.

6. Easy care is critical for a great summer blanket. Bringing your summer blanket back and forth to the dry cleaners is not how you want to spend those summer months. Getting a blanket that can be washed repeatedly in your own washer and dryer is an absolute must!

7. Mold and mildew resistance is key for summer blanket. You want to be able to leave your blanket in your trunk, beach bag, or boat and not have to worry about mold and mildew.

8. You'll want a lightweight, compact blanket that's easy to tote in a backpack or beach bag.

9. Comfort: Regardless of the season, a blanket's all about comfort. You want something soft, plush and warm that makes you feel good.

10. And finally, you should look for a blanket that is durable and made to last. Buying a cheap “throw away” blanket may seem worth it, but in the long run it isn’t. American Blanket Company uses durable fabrics that are made to last you a lifetime!
