The Slanket - FAQ
What makes The Slanket different from other “blankets with sleeves”?
We’re the original. The Slanket was invented in Maine in the late ’90s — long before the knockoffs showed up. We use premium, double-brushed microfleece that’s heavier, softer, and longer-lasting than any imitator. You can copy the idea, but you can’t copy the comfort.
How big is The Slanket — will it fit me?
Oh, it’ll fit. Slanket is generously oversized to cover you from shoulders to toes, with plenty of room to move. It’s like being wrapped in your own personal cloud — but with sleeves so you can still reach for snacks or the remote.
What materials is it made from, and how soft is it really?
Each Slanket is crafted from ultra-soft, double-brushed microfleece — thick enough to feel luxurious, yet breathable enough to wear for hours. It’s comfort that doesn’t quit, wash after wash.
Is The Slanket machine washable?
Absolutely. Just toss it in cold water and tumble dry low. No shrinking, no shedding, no losing that “new blanket” feel — even after dozens of movie marathons.
Does it get too hot or is it breathable enough for year-round use?
The magic of The Slanket is balance — cozy warmth without the sweat. It’s perfect for chilly nights, but breathable enough for lazy Sunday lounging all year long.
When did The Slanket first come out — are you the original?
Yes — we’re the original blanket with sleeves. The first prototype was stitched together in 1998, inspired by one cold night and a college student’s need to stay warm while studying. The rest is cozy history.
Do you offer Slankets for kids, couples, or pets?
We do! The Siamese Slanket is built for two, the Kids Slanket is perfect for little loungers, and the Stroller Slanket keeps your smallest snuggler warm on the go. We even have the Slanket Onesie for those who want full-body cozy. Pets enjoy any of The Slankets.
What’s the difference between The Ultimate Slanket and The Siamese Slanket?
The Ultimate Slanket is your solo comfort cocoon — one person, total coverage.
The Siamese Slanket doubles that joy with space for two — perfect for couples, best friends, or anyone who believes sharing warmth is the ultimate love language.
How long will my Slanket last — is it worth the price?
The Slanket is made to last years, not seasons. With premium fleece, reinforced stitching, and easy care, it outlives cheaper imitations by miles. One cozy night in and you’ll know — it’s not just worth it, it’s priceless comfort.
Is there a back to the Slanket?
There is no back on The Slanket. It lays over you just like a normal blanket would but with the addition of sleeves and hand & foot pockets.
