Sizes: ​​54 x 72 inches | Material: 100% polyester microfiber | Color options: Choice of four colors

Pros:

• Super soft to the touch

Cons:

The bestselling Barefoot Dreams throw blanket can make sweater weather even cozier with its irresistibly soft texture. Though the brand has been around since the early 1990s, celebrities like Khloe Kardashian and Chrissy Teigen have popularized it, making these throws a frequent sellout. The throw’s iconic jacquard animal print, aptly named “In the Wild,” comes in a range of color combinations, including faded rose and cream, linen and warm gray, cream and stone, as well as graphite and carbon. Draping it over your furniture can instantly elevate the look of any room.

Crafted from Barefoot Dreams’ signature “Cozychic” knit, the blanket is made of 100% polyester microfiber, offering a luxurious feel that’s perfect for snuggling during a TV binge or a chat with friends. To maintain its softness and longevity, the brand advises against using bleach, dryer sheets, or fabric softener. However, it’s easy to care for—simply machine wash and tumble dry on low to keep it looking like new.

What our editors say: “We received this Barefoot Dreams throw as a baby present, and it has seen a lot of action,” says Forbes Vetted editor Margaret Badore. “It’s so soft, cozy and warm. As a mom to a toddler, I appreciate that it’s durable and easy to wash.”

If you’re looking for a wool throw blanket to cozy up with during the frigid winter months, this Brooklinen option is a top choice.

It also holds its shape well, making it an ideal decorative piece. Available in neutral colors like latte and greige, it’s a stylish accessory that complements any room. To maintain its quality, Brooklinen recommends dry cleaning.
