Merino Wool Camping Blanket 66 x 90 in - Rugged Warmth for Outdoors

In this review the Woolly Mammoth Woolen Company Merino Wool blanket is judged on warmth, durability and everyday usability. It is aimed at campers, hikers and anyone wanting a thick outdoor throw that doubles as a bedroll; the single biggest reason to buy is the heavy, insulating feel driven by 80% Merino wool that keeps users warm in cold conditions without feeling scratchy. The blanket's generous 66 in by 90 in size and classic Black & Cream Plaid make it equally useful for picnic use, travel or overnighting in a chilly tent.

Key Features

• Outdoor Durability: Heavy construction and double-stitched polyester edging resist wear and help the blanket hold up to trail and campsite use.
• Merino Wool Comfort: With 80% premium Merino wool content the throw provides a thick, warm surface that feels soft against the skin and regulates temperature well.
• Generous Size: At 66 in x 90 in the blanket offers full coverage for sleeping or sharing on a picnic, making it practical for multiple outdoor situations.
• Versatile Use: The design works as a camping blanket, bedroll or festival throw so it adapts to hiking, riding or military-style field needs.
• Stylish Pattern: The Black & Cream Plaid is classic and unobtrusive, fitting both home and outdoor aesthetics for versatile use.
• Low Maintenance: Self-cleaning wool fibers reduce washing frequency and the blanket responds well to spot cleaning and dry cleaning.

Who It's For

The blanket suits campers, backpackers who favor a heavier, insulating layer for cold-weather trips, and anyone who wants a durable, warm throw for outdoor events or chilly bedrooms. Its weight and wool content make it particularly good for people who sleep cold or need a reliable blanket for multi-night outdoor use.

Those who need an ultralight packable blanket for minimalist backpacking should look elsewhere, as this is a thick, heavy wool throw designed for warmth and durability rather than minimal weight or extreme compressibility.
