This company wants to make the everyday blanket even better by making it out of modern textiles. The Super Fleece is a high-performance blanket inspired by [comfy fleece jackets](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/patagonia-retrox-jacket). The top side is made from a technical fabric, which is durable and water-resistant. This particular material is used to create an attractive pattern that resembles the look of a natural wood grain. The underside of the blanket is made from anti-microbial fleece, which is incredibly soft and completely odor-resistant. The Super Fleece blanket combines the comfort of a traditional throw with the same performance standards used to make active apparel and outdoor gear. The high-performance blanket is perfect for those who are looking for a blanket to use inside and outside of the home. ## Trend Insights (Trend Hunter) - Score: 3.8/10 - Popularity: 59% | Activity: 46% | Freshness: 8% - Audience gender: 50% men, 50% women - Primary generations: Millennial, Gen X - Top markets: North America ## Categories [Trend Hunter](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends) > [Art & Design](https://www.trendhunter.com/artdesign) > [Design](https://www.trendhunter.com/design) ## Key Themes ### Key Themes Behind This Trend - **Technical Blankets:** Opportunity to disrupt traditional blanket market by incorporating technical fabrics. - **Durable Home Textiles:** Incorporating durable and outdoor-inspired materials in home textiles disrupting traditional home textile materials and designs. - **Antimicrobial Fabrics:** Opportunity to innovate products with antimicrobial qualities for increased hygienic applications. ### Where This Applies - **Home Textiles:** The home textiles industry can benefit from incorporating performance materials to provide durable and versatile products to customers. - **Outdoor Apparel:** The outdoor apparel industry can benefit from expanding their product line by creating home textiles made from high-performance materials. - **Healthcare:** The healthcare industry can benefit from incorporating antimicrobial fabrics into their products to increase cleanliness and hygiene standards. ## Related on Trend Hunter - [Safety-Focused Camper Blankets](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/nanoloft-flame-puffy-blanket.md) - [Fire-Resistant Campsite Blankets](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/updated-nanoloft-takibi-blanket.md) - [Ultra-Cozy Large Blankets](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/big-blanket.md) - [Children's Wearable Blankets](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/super-blanky.md) - [Outdoor Adventure Blankets](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/puffle-zero.md) - [Technical Collaboration Blankets](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/reconnect-puffy-blanket.md) - [Ultra-Comfortable Home Blanket](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/windowpane-blanket.md) - [Chromatic Natural Landscape Blankets](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/rumpl-retro-elements-blankets.md) - [Versatile Heating Blankets](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/versatile-heating-blanket.md)
