The Surprisingly Stylish Find That’s Keeping Me Cozy All Winter Is Flying Out of Stock — But You Can Snag One Right Now
It’s no secret that for many people this year, winter has been bitterly cold. However, as someone who actually enjoys this weather, I know it’s prime time for all things cozy — and I couldn’t be happier. After all, it’s what I love most about the season! From soft sweaters to toasty throws, I love a good snuggle-worthy find this time of year, and I recently made a discovery that I think everyone needs in their home.
This past holiday, I was gifted L.L. Bean’s Cozy Sherpa Wearable Throw, and let’s just say this was the most wonderfully unexpected present I received. Soft and cozy, this wearable blanket is unlike any other one on the market — and it seems I’m not the only one who has been loving it because it has been out of stock for weeks. Luckily for you, this amazing blanket is finally back, so I had to tell you all about it.
What Is L.L. Bean’s Cozy Sherpa Wearable Throw?
If you’re looking for the ultimate way to stay warm this winter, this wearable L.L. Bean throw is the way to go. Made from an über-soft poly sherpa, with this pick you’ll get all the warmth of a cuddly blanket with the comfort of a wrap. Complete with a hood and two pockets (perfect for keeping your hands warm!), once you put it on, you’ll find yourself reaching for it time and time again. Best of all, it comes in five fun colors so you can find the perfect one for you, a friend, or a loved one!
Why I Love L.L. Bean’s Cozy Sherpa Wearable Throw
As I mentioned above, I was gifted this throw for Christmas, and since then, barely a day has passed where I haven’t used it. Now, I’ve used wearable blankets in the past (I practically lived in my Snuggie in college), but there are a few things about this wrap that make it special.
First of all, there’s the design. Some wearable blankets have a sweatshirt design that overheats me way too fast, while the ones with an open-front design aren’t cut in a way that properly covers me, so I always find myself adjusting it to make sure I stay warm. This blanket, however, has an oversized one-size-fits-all wrap shape that truly allows you to stay properly covered, no adjustment needed. And when I get hot, a quick shake and it’s off, so I’m able to stay cool, too.
Then there’s the features. Pockets? Always a win. But in the past, I’ve hated the hoods on wearable blankets as I always found they pulled on my neck due to their, frankly, lazy design. On the contrary, the hood on this wrap has a slouchy shape that lets it drape perfectly. No tugging, no fussing, just cozy comfort. Oh, and to top it off, there’s even a hanging loop so I don’t have to worry about stretching out the hood. They’ve thought of (and perfected) everything!
Speaking of cozy comfort, this blanket wouldn’t be half as good as it is if it wasn’t for the soft sherpa material. I’ve tried tons of sherpa blankets in my life, but this one is truly up there with some of the softest I’ve ever tested. It’s also one of the only ones I’ve tried that comes out just as soft — if not softer? — after a wash (Yep, you can throw this blanket in both the washer and dryer).
Now, because I loved this blanket so much, I immediately tried to get another in a different color earlier this month and wouldn’t you know it? They were all back-ordered. But as I shared earlier, this brilliant find is finally back! So if I were you, I’d head over to L.L. Bean and get your hands on one while you can. But be warned: Once you do, you’ll never let it go.
