Best Rumpl Blankets for Sustainable Camping

Rumpl Blankets are warm, weatherproof, stain resistant, rip-proof blankets made from recycled plastic bottles.

Calling this product a “blanket” is actually something of an understatement. Rumpl is a lot more than that – you can sleep in it, wear it like a cape, use it for a tent floor, eat on it like a picnic blanket and much more.

Rumpl Blankets come in three main styles: the Original Puffy Blanket, the Nanoloft® Puffy Blanket, and the Down Puffy Blanket.

While all Rumpl blankets share some common technical features, each blanket has unique benefits that make it the best choice for specific activities.

What are customers saying about Rumpl Blankets?

Do not just take our word for it – here are some customer reviews sharing what they love best about their sustainably-sourced blankets built from recycled plastic bottles and recycled polyester. 

WHAT RUMPL BLANKETS ARE BEST FOR CAMPING?

The Rumpl NanoLoft or Down Puffy Blankets are the best option if you’re sleeping outside in cold weather. The Featherlite is best if you’re hiking long distances and want to keep your pack as light as possible.

HOW WARM ARE RUMPL BLANKETS?

I tested the Rumpl NanoLoft blanket during the winter in Switzerland and found it to be very warm at temperatures of 30 degrees to 35 degrees. The synthetic down does a great job at keeping the cold out, while maintaining the comfortable internal heat of your body.

Rumpl does not temperature rate the blankets. This means they don’t specify the specific temperature the blanket should be used.

WHAT IS THE WARMEST RUMPL BLANKET?

The NanoLoft Blanket ($179) is Rumpl’s warmest blanket. The Down Puffy Blanket is the 2nd warmest.

WHAT IS THE LIGHTEST RUMPL BLANKET?

The Rumpl Featherlite Blanket is the lightest blanket, weighing only 1lb. The Down Puffy Blanket is the 2nd lightest at 1.3lbs.

Priced at  Down Puffy blanket and the Featherlite are Rumpl’s warmest blankets. are packed with insulation to withstand very cold temperatures.

Rumpl Blanket Designs  

Rumpl blankets are available in a stunning variety of colors and patterns and can take a lot of punishment without getting damaged or torn. In addition to its technical features, Rumpl has some of the coolest, most unique designs we’ve ever seen on a blanket.

Many of the best Rumpl Blankets draw their inspiration from scenery you might venture to see with your blanket in tow. Take the Ocean Fade design, which calls to mind the depths of the sea with its rich blends of dark and bright blue. Or check out the series of national park-inspired blankets – they feature some of the best views from popular destinations like the Grand Canyon and Yellowstone. 

Those with a flair for the 60s era aesthetic, for example, might fall in love with the Cosmic Soul design; it boasts a tie-dye print inspired by the Grateful Dead.

On the other hand, the Crisp Fade Nanoloft Puffy Blanket (reminiscent of a spring sky at dawn) will appeal more to lovers of solid or ombre looks.

Nature lovers will appreciate the popular Old Growth print (displaying an overhead shot of a dense, green forest). Star-gazers will love the colorful Lagoon Nebula blanket with its depiction of a beautiful interstellar cloud. Then again, some might just be drawn to the pragmatic look of the Lake Tahoe blanket – a design featuring this famous lake as a topographic map! 

Final Thoughts

What I Love About Rumpl Blankets:

  • Wearable – with a Cape Clip® that allows you to wear the blanket hands-free
