Top-10 Heavy Wool Blankets
Loved in the USA

The Molithe 100% Wool Blanket is a solid choice for anyone needing a durable and warm blanket for outdoor activities like camping or sporting events. Made from 100% virgin wool, it boasts a sturdy construction with a weight of 4.27 pounds, making it quite heavy and suitable for colder seasons. Its large dimensions of 62" x 86" ensure ample coverage, which is a significant advantage during chilly nights outdoors. The advanced wool carding process makes it soft and comfortable against the skin, so it won’t irritate your skin like some wool products can. Plus, the blanket has a self-cleaning feature, which means it doesn't need frequent washing—just airing it out occasionally is enough.

However, there are a few considerations to keep in mind. While the blanket is designed for both indoor and outdoor use, it's not water-resistant, which might be a drawback if you're looking to use it in wet conditions. Additionally, while it can be machine washed on a delicate cycle, you must avoid top-load washers with agitators that could damage the fabric. The requirement for careful maintenance might deter some users who prefer low-maintenance options.

Another point to consider is that the blanket's weight and bulkiness might not be ideal for those looking for something lightweight or compact for travel. It does come with a premium PU strap for portability, but for backpackers, every ounce counts. Finally, some initial shedding may occur, which is typical for wool products, but can be unsettling for first-time users. If you’re searching for a thick, warm blanket for outdoor adventures or cozy nights in, the Molithe blanket is a well-made option worth considering, as long as you’re prepared for its maintenance needs.

The Arcturus Backwoods Wool Blanket is designed for warmth and durability, making it suitable for camping, outdoor events, and emergency situations.

Weighing 4.5 lbs and with a thickness of 550 GSM, it offers substantial warmth, ensuring you stay cozy even in cool conditions.

The Arcturus Military Wool Blanket stands out in the heavy wool blanket category, particularly for those who enjoy outdoor activities like camping and tailgating. Weighing 4.5 lbs and measuring 64" x 88", it offers ample coverage and warmth, making it a solid choice for chilly nights. One of its key strengths is its triple-washed wool composition, which not only enhances softness and hygiene but also minimizes shedding—an issue often found in cheaper blankets. The blanket is loom-woven and hemmed with care, ensuring durability while maintaining a stylish look suitable for both outdoor and indoor use.

Another advantage is that it is machine washable, making it easy to clean and maintain. It becomes softer with each wash, improving its comfort over time. The addition of hypoallergenic synthetic fibers enhances the blanket’s durability, ensuring it lasts longer while still providing the warmth that wool is known for, even when wet.

There are a few points to consider. While the blanket is excellent for camping and other outdoor activities, its weight may be a little cumbersome for those seeking ultra-light options for backpacking. Additionally, some may prefer a fully natural wool composition, as the synthetic fibers, albeit minimal, may not appeal to everyone.
