Snow Peak, the popular Japenese outdoor apparel brand, recently joined forces with Portland-based sustainable brand Rumpl to launch the ultimate campaign blanket, the NanoLoft Takibi Blanket. The premium fire-resistant blanket leverages Rumple's sustainable proprietary 100% post-consumer recycled NanoLoft insulation with Snow Peak's recycled ripstop with fire-resistant aramid material. This makes the blanket a great option for keeping warm by the fire. Simply drape the blanket around you for warmth and spark protection or wrap around the body and secure with Rumpl's classic cape clip
The new NanoLoft Takibi Blanket is available to purchase starting October 19 via both brands’ e-commerce sites, as well as at Snow Peak’s brick-and-mortar retail locations in Portland and Soho. Plus consumers in Japan can get their hands on the product on October 17, just in time for Snow Peak’s annual Autumn Festival.
